Two Nights Of Racing At MIS This Weekend
Monday, July 17, 2006 (Oregon, WI) - Racing fans are in for a real adventure
this weekend at Madison International Speedway with two exciting nights of
racing on Friday and Saturday.
On Friday night it will be Pomp's Tire Night at MIS with action in all five
weekly divisions: Weaver Auto Parts Madison ASA Late Models, Rockweiler
Insulation Limited Late Models, Bryden Motors Area Sportsman, Club La Mark
Hobby Stocks, and Roto Rooter Bandits. Pit gates open at 3:30, hot laps
at 4:45, qualifying at 6:45 with racing at 7:30.
One of the wildest and craziest nights in the history of Madison International
Speedway will take place on Saturday, July 22nd when Schmidt’s Auto Salvage
and Towing of Madison presents the Night of Destruction and Thrills.
A unique schedule of events will surely entertain audiences of all ages.
Here is just a taste of what fans can expect on the Night of Destruction and
Thrills at Madison International Speedway.
Nationally known stuntman Tommy “Trubble” McTague will be attempting to
successfully complete “The Suicide Spiral.” McTague will literally
take to the skies when he flies his car over 150 feet through the air.
The thrills will come back down to earth when Benny “The Bomb” Koske takes
center stage. Koske will have the hottest seat in the place when the car
he is sitting in literally explode around him.
For fans of total mayhem and destruction, the monster truck “Nemesis” will
be on hand to jump and crush everything in its path.
A variety of unique racing events will also be taking place on the quarter
mile. These include a blindfold race, gauntlet event, and train race.
The blindfold event will feature a blindfolded driver taking instructions from
a passenger who can see. The train race involves a group of three cars
chained together and racing against other cars like it. The
“Gauntlet” race will feature a full-size car trying to maneuver around the
speedway with a series of cars doing everything to prevent that from
happening. Drivers interested in participating in these events are
encouraged to contact the track office at 608.835.9700.
The Midwest Enduro Series will also be in action with over 60 cars taking to
the quarter mile competing in the Steve’s 51 / Newville Auto Salvage
150. The series has been to MIS in the past but this will be the first
time on the quarter mile as bumper to bumper and wheel to wheel racing is
guaranteed.
Two MIS weekly divisions will also take to the track with the Hobby Stock
Showdown and Battle of the Bandits. Drivers in these divisions are
encouraged to contact the track office for more information.
The action gets started at 6:00 PM. Adult admission on Saturday is just
$15.00 with children eleven and under admitted free. For more
