The annual event allows firemen $5 tickets if they show their badge or proper fireman ID. Five divisions of action will be on track racing for the elusive checkered flag.

Their top five finish percentage is also very good, with each driver only finishing out of the top five spots once. Cody Maguire, Dakota Ewing, and Kyle VanDorn round out the top five in standings. In BillingsleyRewards.com Modified action, last year’s Pro Late champion, Tommy Sheppard, of New Berlin, IL, is putting a hurtin’ on the field.
