Track Officials have made the decision to get back to racing Labor Day Weekend on Friday Sept. 1st after shutting the gates in early Spring.

Divisions that will be added to program includes Crate Late Models, KDRA Super Streets, and Sport Mods. One Division being eliminated is the Bomber Division. Officials stated that last season at 201 the Bomber Division seemed to be declining and with Mt. Motor Speedway in Isom, Ky. (also a Saturday night track) running bombers the decision was made not to split up the bombers or try to draw them from Mt. Motor as they are in a rebuilding year also.

Atomic already has a $4,000 to win late model show that same night. Maybe the tracks are far enough apart.

great that their adding a crate class i hope they stay with it and give this class time to grow in this area. on the sport mods go with the rules like AMRA has for this class and have techs that will enforce the rules. good luck 201.
