01.20.09 | 3Wide | Well, here it is less than a year after the terrible news
above was released and through the help of Jim Morton and a group of
volunteers, things have improved tremendously. Jim was able to get the ok to run just one event in 2008, and what an event it turned out to be. Perhaps the largest crowd in the 50+ year history turned out for Turkey Derby 2008. Perhaps because of the success of that event, combined with the tireless efforts of Jim and his team, the official announcement was made that racing is returning to Wall Speedway in 2009! While details will follow, information was provided on Jan 17th at the Motorsports Show that indicates that there will be at least one Saturday Night race each month during the racing season with there possibly being as many as 2 during the peak summer months of July and August, along with Turkey Derby 2009. In addition, the very popular Sunday Series program is making a return featuring Karts, Bandoleros, Micros and Legends. Thank you Jim Morton, Sue Simpson, Kevin Eyres, volunteers and owners of Wall Speedway for bringing racing back to Wall. |
