Five for Five This Friday Night at I-70 Speedway

ODESSA, MO (May 2) - This Friday Night at I-70 Speedway fans will get an extra treat. Not only will they see the regular Friday night IMCA classes, which include the Modifieds, Stock Cars, SportMods and Sport Compacts, this week the racing bill includes the new IMCA Crate Models. So Friday night fans will see five dirt track classes for the general admission price of $5.00.

The Crate Model class is new to IMCA racing for the 2007 season and is just what the name suggests, a full Late Model race car utilizing the GM crate engine as the power plant. Three years ago IMCA introduced the crate motor concept to racing when it created the SportMod class which allowed drivers to enter Modified racing at a more affordable level. The SportMod class has grown at an unpredictable rate and now IM CA will apply this theory to Late Model racing. “I truly believe this new, affordable, class of Late Models will encourage drivers in Stock Cars and Modifieds, who have always wanted to race a Late Model, to make this very affordable move”, commented Brad McDonald of I-70 Speedway. Gene Stigall, promoter at Winston Speedway, the area’s Saturday night IMCA sanctioned track, agrees.

So dirt track fans, what more could you ask for? Five exciting classes of racing and it will only cost you Five Dollars to see it all. Where in the nation can you see grass root, dirt track racing, let alone, Crate Models, Modifieds, Stock Cars, SportMods and Sport Compacts, all on the same show for the admission price of Five Dollars. Only at the Dirt Track at I-70 Speedway.

On Friday night, Pit Gates will open at 5:00 pm. General Admission Gates open at 6:00 pm, Hot Laps start at 7:30 pm with racing at 8:15 pm. Pit Passes are only $15.00 on Friday Night. As always on Five Dollar Fridays, admission is $5.00 – children 5 and under are admitted for free.
