This Saturday at Beacon Dragway!

We have a lot going on honoring both Raymond Bowman and Gary "Joe" Benton. We are also doing a 50/50 drawing in support of Jake Overstreet.

Also with it being Halloween, we are having a TRAILER or TREAT for the kids! And I'm sure it goes without saying, someone will be crowned with the best costume! Seperate awards for Adults and Children!

Gary Benton had some awesome plaques designed in honor of his dad for both Winner and R/U's of each class!

We look forward to seeing all our racing family for one last race of 2026!

Updated Team Finals roster and schedule posted below.

You will pay me (Ryan Frye) for your main event entries ($80 each) and t-shirts ($15 each) on Friday. My plan is to arrive at I57 no later than 9am Friday morning. When you pay me I will give you your Saturday tech card(s) and t-shirt(s). All gamblers race entries, gamblers buy backs and Saturday main event buy backs will be purchased in the 2nd floor of the tower.

This year we will not be grilling as a track.
