MANITOWOC, Wisc. (July 3) - Thunder of race cars that is!!! After a 5 week hiatus, Manitowoc County Expo Speedway was blessed with great weather, a packed grandstand and about 120 cars in the pits. Veterans/Military Personnel were honored and with their ID cards were admitted into the races free. Thank you Veterans/Military Personnel for your support and all you have done for our country!
Pole sitter, Jim Schmidt of Cleveland, led the 25 lap Late Model feature until lap 9 when Sheboygan's Scott Specht took over. Waukesha's Russ Scheffler started the race 8th and on lap 16 found himself in the top spot. Crossing the line after Scheffler was Specht, Tim Buhler of Glenbeulah, Oostburg's Gordie Seegert and Tom Naeyaert of Shawano. Scheffler, Specht, Buhler, and Seegert claimed the extra purse money donated by Baleigh Industrial of Manitowoc.
Racing will resume next Friday night, July 11th. Join us for Fox Hills Resort and Lakeside Foods Night at the races. This will also be our Mid-Season Championship and the Pat Rand Memorial.
