USAC Sprints and Midgets to 34 Raceway

Open wheel fans will definitely be marking their 2010 calendar for Saturday night June 26th as the USAC non-wing, or "traditional", Sprint Cars and Midgets will take to the high-banks at 34 Raceway near Burlington. Promoter Amy Laue told me that the event will be unique in that it will be the first time that the two USAC sanctioned divisions have ever run together on the same night in the state of Iowa.

This was the biggest bit of news that I picked up when Christine and I popped into the track's annual banquet Saturday night after attending my cousin's wedding reception. Keep your eye on www.34raceway.com in the next few days for more details.

While the party was winding down as we arrived late it was nice to catch up with friends, and it was no surprise that many of them are the same ones that you will still find in the pits enjoying a cold one and having some fun a couple hours after the last checkered flag flies!

Have a great Turkey Day!
