Along with all of the great racing at the Tri-County Race Track on Monday, May 30, several other exciting things will truly make this a "Can't Miss Event for the Entire Family." From 5:00-6:00 p.m., there will be pit tours available for all kids ages twelve and under. Those children will be taken through the pit area to see all of the cars and get their picture taken or an autograph from their favorite driver(s). After the pit tour, the kids will receive a free t-shirt and a free meal ticket for the grandstand concession stand where they can get something to eat and drink. The children's pit tour is courtesy of reallycheapfloors.com.

In addition, we will also recognize all of the veterans in attendance on Memorial Day by asking them to stand, so that the entire crowd can honor them for their service and sacrifice. Also, a portion of the night's ticket sales will go towards the Clay County Relay for Life. This is a great cause and the Tri-County Race Track is excited to partner with them on Memorial Day. Last but not least, a fireworks display will light up the sky during the intermission session.

Chris Ferguson
Brian Reese (Per Website) http://www.brianreese33.com/tour.html
Clint Smith
Shane Clanton
Anthony White
Brent Dixon
Skip Arp
Ronnie Johnson

Some of Tri-County's Strong Weekly Drivers this year include:

Johnny Chastain
Shawn Chastain
Danny Ledford
George Mashburn
Jeremy Ledford
Randy Nichols
Steve Clark
Jacob Grizzle
Rodney Weeks
Jamie Oliver
David Mccoy
Jimmy Ivester
Mike Davis

Check with Ray Cook first but it might be a good opportunity for someone to double up and try to take the Super Latemodel Feature ($3000) and the Limited/Crate Feature ($1000). So far this year Ray has allowed drivers to run both with different car's weekly. As I said ask Ray first to confirm this is still the case but might be a good opportunity for some drivers.

Should be a race to remember! Ray and crew have done an awesome job this year. Does anyone know if local driver Jamie Oliver will be there? If so, the track should do something for his daughter. To my understanding she is still in a hospital in GA. Both Jamie and his wife have left their jobs and have been with her the entire time. Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with their family thru this difficult time. Couldn't imagine what they are going thru.

10 inch wheels.
No front jack bolts
Aluminum intake okay
Holley 600 only
.450 lift hydraulic cam
no double hump,performance or .041 heads
shocks must be in stock location.
Thats the basic rules that will usually rule a lot of cars from other tracks either in or out.

Got to add the Tire Rule...

Tire Rule: American Racer Spec 48 and 56 & Hoosier Spec 1350 and 1600 - Cars with Non-Spec 48s and 1350s Must Add 50 Lbs

A 10-15 minutes with the drivers in the stands passing helments around could raise a good bit during a short time to help out the Oliver family,maybe during a short intermission.

Update: This is not a definite but I added Chris Ferguson to the list!

I got word that if everything goes good for them this weekend they will try to make it to Tri-County on Monday!

He would for sure be exciting to watch at Tri-County, but as I said this is not a definite yet.
