Deer Creek Speedway Readies For World Dirt Racing League
By Bill Nelson
August 2, 2005- The crew at Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley Minnesoa are
busy preparing for one of the best shows of the season when the stars of the
Polydome World Dirt Racing League Late Model Series invades the speedway on
August 9th. The 2005 edition of the “Midwest Wireless 50” event will
be a show to see. WDRL point leader and defending champion of the event
Denny Eckrich will be on hand to test the Southern Minnesota Speedplant along
with former WDRL champion Kyle Berck, rookie sensation Justin Fegers of Mound
MN and many others. Some of the other expected traveling stars will be
John Anderson, Dave Eckrich along with Eric Pember, Keith Foss and many
others. They will be competing against some of the best local stars with
the likes of Lance Matthees, Mark Teske, Brad Waits and many other local
drivers. Also expected to be on hand are some of the best area WISSOTA
Late Model drivers. Last year a great field of cars entered the speedway
with hopes of garnering the $5,000 first place check.
All seating is general admission with all kids 12 and under admitted to the
speedway for free. Adults are $18.00 at the door.
Also on hand for the racing action that night will be the USRA Modifieds.
A great turnout of modifieds is expected at the event that will pay $1000 to
the winner of the event. No-license required to race a USRA Sanctioned
event.
Those who have not been at the speedway since last years inaugural event
presented by Midwest Wireless will notice a huge amount of changes to the
facility. Out front the first thing you may notice is the large lighted
highway sign announcing your arrival at the speedway. Entering the
parking lot you will then notice that there are now two VIP buildings.
Getting your tickets is less congested with new ticket windows and gate
entrances. Upon entering the speedway you will be inside the new Pepsi
Plaza a new hospitality area. Walking into the speedway to find your
seat you will see that a new section of state of the art seating has been
added in front of the new VIP building that allows for some incredible sight
lines. While enjoying the nights racing activities feel free to visit
with Magnum the new Deer Creek Mascot or visit one of the two concession
areas. A new concession trailer has been added under the new VIP
building and holds all of the racetrack favorites along with some new
treats. Walking Tacos have been added to the menu this year along with
French Fries and new last weekend Blue Bunny Ice Cream treats. You will
find a selection of food that is second to none as you enjoy the nights racing
activities.
