PRITCHARD FAMILY AUTO STORES HANCOCK COUNTY SPEEDWAY GEARING UP FOR 12TH ANNUAL HARRIS AUTO RACING “NIGHT OF 1000 STARS”

BRITT, IA (July 20, 2006) - The Harris Auto Racing Night of 1000 Stars has been a mid-summer tradition at the Pritchard Family Auto Stores Hancock County Speedway since 1994, and will continue for another installment of this timeless tradition at the Britt, Iowa, speedplant during the annual Hancock County Fair on Tuesday, July 25.

This race will be even bigger than the previous 11 years as several sponsors have come on board to provide some great items for both competitors and fans at this year's two-day event.

This will be the best racing in Iowa -- and all for a great low price! A great field of cars with the area's top drivers are expected, so be sure to get there early to get the best seat in the house and join other fans for Happy Hour from 5 to 6:30 p.m. with $1.50 Bud products!
