The big news broke this week about one of Central Illinois hottest drivers was heading for a ride in The Rocket house car. Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin will be leaving Monday for West Virginia to join team Rocket but before he does he will be giving the fans that have supported him in Central Illinois one last chance to see him wheel his B5. Per his facebook page Brandon will be at Farmer City tonight, LaSalle on Saturday, and Quincy on Sunday. We here at Farmer City have enjoyed watching Brandon threw the years and want to congratulate him on his new accomplishment. We are happy to have him tonight at Farmer City and we will continue to cheer him on his new journey. But finding victory lane tonight will not be easy for Brandon as it appears there will be some other hot shoes that will be in attendance tonight. The High Side Hustler from Bloomington, IL. Jason Feger, Kevin Weaver, and Chris D!ck will be trying to sour the farewell party.

Also tonight at Farmer City we are going to take time to honor all the mothers in attendance.
