They finally received the OK from the fair board to open the track up and we are looking forward to the first race of 2020.
The only details I have so far is this race will be held on the big track and that its a "regular " race night pay out. Pay out last year was 100% and it should be again this year but let me see what else I can find out and I will update this post soon.
Largest classes last year were the flatheads, clone heavy and clone medium. thanks UPDATE , Its been changed to a money race night and is non points . Page down for details, thanks

This just in :

July 4th will b a non points race

we r adding the unlimited modified class to the line ups

4 strokes 300cc max no overhead valve

Yamaha will bb 150cc max
Burris tires only
Also july4th
Rwyb will have a $500 purse
Clone 380 $500 purse
Fh365 $500 purse
Jr3 $500 purse
All money classes will b a $50 entry fee
10 plus karts will pay $500
8 karts $400
6 karts $300 etc. etc
Will pay back top 3 spots
 
$300 to win, $125 for second and $75 for third in the money classes with 10 karts is what I was just told and even if 4 karts show up it would still be a $200 purse. So there is no kart minimum, its just the more karts that show the more money we will be racing for. IMO there will be plenty of FH's and clone 380's show and I am hearing that RWYB will have more than 10 The only question is how many Jr 3 drivers will show up ?
Stay tuned more details to come.
 
Also at Columbus July 18th.
