Bloomington Speedway Introduces New General Managers

Bloomington, Ind. – Sept. 19, 2015 – The red clay, quarter-mile track in Bloomington will be under a duo of management starting this offseason.

Kris Kirchner finished his final event at the First Annual Bloomington Speedway Go-Kart Nationals on Sept. 12.

A long history of living in Monroe County and attending or participating in events at Bloomington Speedway will benefit the duo of Matt Hamilton and Jennifer Hamilton as co-General Managers.

“I received the knowledge of promoting events from my dad,” Matt Hamilton said. “He was the pit steward at the Sweet Owen Speedway years ago, and then took to promoting local events and righting the rules for several area demolition derbies.”

“There will be a few minor tweaks to the race night that the fans will see to continue to build on the great job Kris Kirchner has started.”

Matt raced many forms of racing in the past 21 years including street stock, modified and hornet divisions. He won the 2015 Bloomington Speedway championship in the hornet division.

Jennifer, attendee of Bloomington Speedway for 22 years, will showcase her experience in marketing, sales and customer service.

“Jen’s experience will be a vital asset to the nightly shows by attracting advertising and promotional items that the fans will hopefully enjoy,” Matt Hamilton said. “She has been a household engineer for many years raising our children. Also, in the past three years, she worked in customer service and relations, so she know what it takes to connect to the fans as well.”

Now, a construction manager for Poynter Sheet Metal, Matt expects to use that experience in order to benefit the racetrack’s facility needs, while Jennifer utilizes her background for the staff and fans.

“With the help of the great staff of Bloomington Speedway, I will be using that knowledge to keep the grounds up and running,” Matt Hamilton said. “Jennifer will be working with the staff and fans and looks forward to putting on a enjoyable night at the Speedway.”
