I am going to make some fancy sign that says "Gone Racing," so if anyone comes looking for me and knocks on my front door, there my sign will be hanging.
The Red River Valley Speedway in Fargo, ND had its season opener Wednesday the 18th. Danny Schatz the current track owner, decided to change the weekly race nights to Wednesdays instead of Fridays because families tend to go out of town to their cabins on weekends, and don't have time for racing.
I am moving to Evansville after graduation, which is a short drive from Alexandria. I will be attending every Saturday night race this summer at Viking Speedway in Alex, something I have not done there since I was six. Although they are not sprint cars, the late models are still a fun event to wach.
The Knoxville Nationals is the biggest sprint car race known to man. It is located in Knoxville, IA and draws in drivers from all of the United States and Canada. The race is to prove who is the best sprint car driver around. The winner is rewarded 150,000 in prize money and a 6 foot tall trophy. The drivers are more concerned about just receiving the fancy trophy, and the title of Knoxville Nationals winner.
