The Thunder Mountain Speedway
will be kicking off its 2010 season on Sunday May 16th
with the 2nd
Annual Steve Peck Memorial Race. This race is sponsored by the Peck
family in memory of Steve Peck, who passed away in September 2008 from
leukemia. This race is a way for the
Speedway
to honor the Peck family for all their support in our years of racing.
Last year during the event drivers passed their helmets in the stands
and pits and collected $500 for Relay for Life. Come up to the races and
help us show our support to the Peck family and help to raise money for
Relay for Life.
This
year the Speedway
will be running 2 classes of cars, the Wissota Midwest Modifieds and the
Sport Stocks. We would like to thank United Oil & Gas for sponsoring our
2010 Midwest Modified payouts. The Speedway
would also like to thank Eunice and Jeremy Ketterling for their donation
in memory of Lester Ketterling, the money donated will be put into our
Sport Stock payouts and also into our hardest hitter prize in our
demolition derby.
We also would like to thank our sponsors so
far for 2010, United Oil & Gas, Tweed Country Ag, Bottineau Auto Value,
Star Transportation and Bottineau Farmers Elevator and Mikkelsen
