Macon Speedway Cancels July 1 Program Due To Storm Damage
Full Speed Ahead For July 6-8 Racing

(Macon, IL) Damage from Thursday afternoon storms have forced the cancelation of the Saturday, July 1 program at Macon Speedway. Officials and volunteers have already begun the process of cleanup and repair to assure that the huge three day race program, July 6-8, goes on as planned.

The strong storm hit the area around 12:30 pm on Thursday afternoon, bringing extremely high winds and heavy rains. The winds, unfortunately tore apart one set of backstretch grandstands, the sponsor billboard signage, roofing on a concession building, and windows in the scoring tower.

Repairs have already begun thanks to some help from volunteers and race officials. The first steps are repair on backstretch grandstands as well as general cleanup.

While the July 1 Fan Appreciation night is canceled, the July 6-8 programs are still on as scheduled.

Looking ahead to next week, Macon Speedway is preparing to host the three biggest days of racing in its 78 seasons of racing.

Thursday, July 6 features the DIRTcar Summer Nationals Hell Tour in the 43rd running of the Herald & Review 100, paying $7,500 to win. Joining the Super Late Models will be the Summit Modified Nationals/Red’s Place Modifieds. At intermission, a special Hornet showdown will take place with Super Late Model racers facing off against the best in Sprint cars.

On Friday, July 7, the track will host its largest firework display in history plus the first ever visit for the USAC/AMSOIL National Sprint Cars on night #1 of the Inaugural “Top Gun”. The HART Non-Wing Micros will also race.

Saturday, July 8 action features night #2 of USAC “Top Gun” plus Vintage Racing of Illinois and DIRTcar Hornets. The Sprint cars will be racing for $10,000 to win.
