    The Spring Meltdown presented by Tighton Tools is just two weeks away

    In just two weeks, I-80 Speedway's 2013 racing season opens with a bang. On Friday, April 5 and Saturday, April 6, the 4/10 mile dirt racing oval will open with the Tighton Tools Spring Meltdown. The Meltdown brings together the best Super Late Models and the best 360 Sprint Cars in the Midwest. Throw in B Mods one night and A Mods the next and you have lots of great racing.

    Drivers expected to be at the Spring Meltdown include; John Anderson, Chad & Chris Simpson, Kyle Berck, Jesse Stovall, Tim Isenberg, Travis (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)es, Bill Leighton, Jr., Jack Dover, Jordan Boston, Ryan Roberts, Dylan Smith, Jesse Sobbing, Johnny Saathoff and many more.

    Friday, April 5, it's complete programs for the Super Late Models, co-sanctioned by CBC & MLRA paying $2,000 to win and $400 to start. The ASCS Midwest Sprints will be racing for $2,500 to win and $300 to start and Unsanctioned B Mods will be racing for $500 to win. Grandstands open at 5:30 pm with racing at 7:15. This will be the season opening event for all three (ASCS, CBC & MLRA) sanctioning bodies.

    It will be the first MLRA race since Lucas Oil purchased the series from Harriett and Cowboy Chancellor during the off-season.”We have many new and exciting things in store for the Lucas Oil MLRA this season including our Winner's Circle Program, an updated rule book, and the addition of several new sponsorship programs.” says Dan Robinson, who in addition to being the General Manager of Lucas Oil Speedway will also be in charge of the MLRA. “I-80 Speedway is always one of the fan's and driver's favorite stops on the MLRA tour and we can't wait to kick off our 25th Anniversary Season there on April 5th.”

    On Saturday, April 6, its another set of complete programs for the Super Late Models and the Sprint Cars. On Saturday, the Super Late Models will pay $3,000 to win and $400 to start with the Sprint Cars once again paying $2,500 to win and $300 start.
