We are allowing grooving of front tires on Modifieds, B-Mods and Stock Cars this weekend so that you might be able to get an extra night out of them.

And... we will be getting our grandstand TV's in place like we do this time of the year so that you Cub fans can watch the game and racing at the same time.

We are racing tonight. Chances of rain keep going down. But want to take a moment to get the word out on our October 8-9th Jacksonville/Quincy Showdown.
