201 SPEEDWAY ROARS BACK TO ACTION ON AUGUST 1ST !! It's been a long rough summer for racing with Mother Nature showing a winning hand more often than our KY tracks, but you can't keep a good thing down forever. Sadly, bad weather swept through Johnson County and has created much devestation around our 201 Speedway, we want to say our hearts are with the families and loved ones as so many people are still living this tragedy and trying to pick up the peices. With a racing surface already damaged from the previous rains, our track was not spared and we have a lot of work to do around the grounds to bring the clay and hillside back to our standards. So the gates will remain closed this Saturday July 25th. But we are proud to say we are forging ahead to honor one of the greatest impacts in our sport with renaming our August 1st race in Honor of Bob Miller. The title we previously given our Lucas Oil race that rains took away, but we at 201 Speedway made this change to still give us all a night to pay respects and honor a man that touched not just so many within our dirt track community but Eastern Kentucky Buisness as a whole. We are excited to bring a wonderful night of racing back to 201 Nation and pack the hillside for a man so very deserving and who loved our sport so dearly !!
