Burdette Carter Classic Saturday, July 6th

Grundy County Speedway will be hosting the Burdette Carter Classic and Veterans Night July 6, 2019. It is part of the Grundy County Fair racing program and it has been a tradition that the midgets run during the Fair dates....a tradition that has lasted many years!

The POWRi midgets will be running the National-style engines and the Production-style motors at the same time.....or.....two races in one! We run this way as we are developing the series and increasing the car count. Additional money will be added to the Production Based Motor (PBM) purse by T1 Racing of Wilmington, Illinois, http://www.t1racing.net.

A $150.00 certificate will be given as the Hard Luck award for T1 chassis dyno time. Heroes West Sports Grill, http://www.heroeswest.net, will be giving away a Hoosier tire to a lucky driver who is entered in the race. Plus, we will have more giveaways from our sponsor Heroes West and from Lucas Oil Products, a POWRi sponsor.

POWRi will be doing free temporary memberships race night. We are trying to build the midget pavement racing back to its past popularity. So come on out and support Grundy County Speedway, http://www.grundycountyspeedwayonline.com, and the Carter family for making the Midgets welcome for many years to this historic track.

If in need of information on the series or if you wish to contribute or sponsor, please contact Neal Gacke 815-258-9876, or visit POWRi.com for rules and all of POWRi racing news!
