    Stuart Speedway (IA) MLRA race on May 2nd 2019

    First time we get to see a touring late model series at Stuart in the modern era. Stuart is a fun high banked 1/4. Hope for a good turn out!

    MLRA 3k to win on Thursday, May 2nd!

    Did I hear correctly that Stuart Speedway is running weekly LM's in 2019?

      That would be awesome, but I doubt it is true. They do have the MLRA and a tentative SLMR race.

      Best track in Iowa after Knoxville!!

        Used to see a young lady who lived in Stuart... the track was closed back then but I would have kept dating her if they were racing every week..

          I doubt it. It is under new ownership and they previous guy tried it for a few years before and I didn't work out. Better having Special's. There is 1-2 late model races scheduled so far.

            DLM on that track should make for a good show. I have heard a lot of good things about the track. I need to put the MLRA race on my list for 2019.

              Disagree. It worked out great when they did it before, it wasn't a every week thing more like a couple times a month, but the old owner was to lazy to keep it around.

                He did it that smartest way he could and at least he tried. I bet it made no sense to have them there. Plus there was cooney drama of coarse.

                  Stuart is a neat little track but I don't see it as a LM joint but for an occasional show. More a Mod and Hobby type of place.

                    Just glad someone in West central Iowa is having a Super Lates Show. ACS has pretty much all but scrapped their LM program and shows. Hampel probably rolled over in his grave when they cancelled the weekly's other than a couple SLMRA shows this year.

                      Very true. I think Corning only had like 5 “weekly” late model shows as to not conflict with SLMR. From what I heard the crowd has been less than favorable.

                      Speaking of Stuart they have a tentative date with SLMR on June 4th
