All Time Record Crowd Enjoys Trailer Races
MAY MAKES IT NUMBER EIGHT
By Dale R. Erdmann
Lake Geneva, WI. Spetember 3rd. - The weather was perfect, as an all time
record crowd, made Kevin Dawson do something very unusual. Because the was no
more room at the raceway, the ticket seller Nancy Cassidy was told to stop
selling spectator admission tickets. An estimated crowd of nearly 500 people
were turned away, Saturday night at Lake Geneva Raceway. The trailer race
would top off the show, as Brad Wilson of Kenosha put on the best show of the
24 entries. The final ever trailer race will be Friday night September 15th.
Eddie May the current points leader from Crystal Lake, Illinois won the rain
rescheduled R A Adams Enterprises of McHenry night feature for the super late
models, in the 40 lap event. John Janssen of Burlington won his second
Performance Unlimited sportsman feature, moving within 85 points of the lead
with only two weeks to go for points. Scott Norton of Wonder Lake, IL. won his
second 30 lap feature of the season in the highly competitive McHenry
Limousine super stocks.
Next Saturday night Quality Tire/American Car Care Center of Spring Grove, IL.
will sponsor the night. John Jindra the former of the company will be honored
in the John Jindra memorial race for the super stock cars. The night will also
be a homecoming for any former fan, friend, driver and employee that has been
here anytime since that first show in 1963, when the drag strip was only
there. The raceway will close after the October 21st. oval track finale and
never reopen. Time trials Saturday begin at 5:45 pm. racing at 7 pm.
