A couple of additional notes for the dirt .25 race at Bellevue.
The race is going to be video taped and then will be aired at a later date on the USAC website.
Each handler and driver will be given a wrist band upon entry to the QM races. These wrist bands will allow you and your driver free general admission entry to the Sprint Car races on Saturday night at the Fremont Speedway. The promoter of Greatlakes Speedsports worked with the promoters of Fremont to allow the QM kids to experience sprint cars on dirt. Fremont is located aboput 30 minutes west of Bellevue.

Who will be the first ever dirt USAC .25 winner?
This will be decided this weekend, thanks to the Toledo club for making this race possible. Also look for more dirt events for 2010 and beyond!

It is an investment that you question. Will be an expensive rain out if it does rain. Especially with all the rain already this week!

Is there a plan for rain? Sunday is supposed to be good weather, will it then become a 1 day show? We have never raced on dirt before can you run on mud if it stops raining? Have they gotten alot of rain this week already and the track is already to muddy to race on?

I am not sure what rain the track has had. Each track has a saturation point and alot of times yes it can be ran in and raced on. I think we will get it in. If it rains we will just have a party!

Well...I talked to the promoter several times yesterday and he assures me he will do whatever it takes to make sure these races happen. The track is tight....he drove a truck across it last night and he said it is good to go. So the rain we have had is NOT a problem with the track or for parking. The track does have lighting so that will not be an issue.
They are calling for Scattered Thunderstorms on Saturday - 50% so it could be hit or miss. Sunday looks good.
Talked to Jeremy from Kokomo Thursday night and he said they are coming.
If it rains...the we will have a party for Barr. LOL
