Independence Motor Speedway Moving Forward With Race Season

INDEPENDENCE, IA (April 19) - There will be racing at Independence Motor Speedway (IMS) this season in spite of the recent damage inflicted upon the main grandstand facility during a wind storm last week. This according to Buchanan County Fair Board member, Brian Prusator and Brian Lille of Three Wide Promotions, the promoter at IMS.

“We have been working with the county supervisors and Three Wide Promotions to come up with a game plan for moving forward with this year’s race season,” Said Prusator. “We’re in contact with all of the right people, everyone is working well together and our plan right now is to open the season towards the middle to latter half of May,” he concluded.

‘Lillie, for his part, is anxious to get going and excited about carrying on the long-standing tradition of racing at the Buchanan County Fairgrounds. “We can’t wait to get going and we aren’t going to let Mother Nature spoil our plans,” said Lillie. “There has been racing at Independence for over thirty years and there will be racing at Independence this year as well. We realize how much it means to our fans and competitors to be able to attend races at this facility and we are determined to provide them that same opportunity as soon as possible this year.”
