Electric Wheel

It's been a busy couple months at the Electric Wheel! Finally getting around to posting the results for the month of July for our Tuesday Night Oval action. We've had good turnouts with a number of our racers being past sprint car drivers from our local dirt tracks. We also have a number of new racers on both our Oval and Gerding King. It's good to see racers getting back to the hobby!

***THIS WEEK IN RACING AT THE ELECTRIC WHEEL***

We had a great week of racing at the Electric Wheel that started off on Tuesday night with our Dirt Late Model Womps on the Oval. Dave Lape crossed the line first for the checkers as Ralph Spithaler finished on the same lap with Bob McChesney to take second and third respectively.

Thursday night has become a Flexi Night With our NASCAR Stock class and Brushless Flexi LMP/GTP class. First up in NASCAR Stock it was our own Alex Richardson taking the win followed by his father, Jeremy Richardson in second and Scott Hughes grabbing third.

Brushless Flexis were up next. It's always a close and fun class with fast racing. Scott Hughes took the win in this one with Jeremy Richardson in second and Ralph Spithaler in third.

We'll be running the same schedule for next week. Come check us out and Race!
We always have an open track so we encourage beginners to check out the action and try a rental car out for some ear to ear smiles and all out fun!

And don't forget, Electric Wheel is a great place for Birthday Parties, Team Building Events or just a place to come with a group of friends and have a blast!
