last place running car will get a prize draw, and at least 2 other starters will get a prize draw, hopefully more as more sponsors donate. Prizes as of now include Indy race parts gift certs, DMI gift certs,and a free ceramic header coat job.

Tony at Hoosier Tire Midwest 317-858-1234 is on board supporting this new race track. They are donating a "HT-2" right rear to be given away as part of the purse. Remember that the "prizes" will drawn for after the race, and everyone that takes the green has a shot to get them. IE, you could finish last and still walk away with a new $200 tire or a $250 header coating job !!!!!!!!

We picked up another "prize" sponsor for this race!!!! Allstar Performance is adding 2 $50.00 merchandise certificates to the sprint car purse and a $50.00 cert to each of the other classes !!!!!!!! A big thanks to those folks for helping this program. http://www.allstarperformance.com/

Re: Charlestown IN Nov 3rd race info
 
The track is a 1/4 mile and pretty flat. It was super smooth last time they raced, even late into the night. I picked up another few "draw" prizes for the sprints. Fred Blocker my Lucas Oil distributor donated 3 cases of 20x50 oil for us to add to the purse. Weather is looking pretty decent for Saturday, I sure hope to see a good turnout in the stands and the pits, so this is a successful event for them.

65 or 31 south to Scottsburg ; East on 56 until you get to 3; 3 south and follow the signs ; the track is on the north side of town on the right as you are going south.... Or it was in 1982 the last time we were there...

speidel21 11/1/12 10:23 PM

Re: Charlestown IN Nov 3rd race info
 
if your anywhere near highway 3, take it, we took it all the way there and the track is actually located on 3. if your going coming from the north on 3, it will be on your right hand side, very easy to pass up.

Re: Charlestown IN Nov 3rd race info
 
sorry didn't see hurstbros. post but hes correct!

Danny Burton 11/2/12 12:10 AM

Re: Charlestown IN Nov 3rd race info
 
Thanks, guys. Didn't trust my own judgement. Richie and I will probably hit 3 east of Scottsburg.

Andrew, we call it the Promised Land, not Kentucky. :D Still have lots of extended family down there.

Keith, Mr. Hoover and I looked at that map and tried to find an oval but had no luck. So....we'll proceed on faith.

Google maps just shows the motorcross track, but the starting gate is actually off the backstretch. Pretty neat joint and the promoter really seems like he wants the cars.

I looked at a Google map a couple weeks back with help from Speidel21. Looks like it shouldn't be tough to find. I will be there.

Thanks for the heads up. The Bengals are playing tomorrow which gives me more incentive to go to Charlestown for the races.:5:

BTW the chance of rain for tomorrow is full of goose eggs.:6:
