Seymour Speedway 07.01.2007

My 15th races of 2007 at the 13th track. The races start early at 6:00 on Sunday night, and they were done at 9:30. I didn't stay for fireworks afterwards because I am not a fireworks fan especially with an hour drive home.

The races were excellent. The 1/3 mile dirt track has WISSOTA late models, IMCA Modified, IMCA Stock Cars, Street Stocks, and 4 cylinders. Notable drivers include 2006 National Dirt Late Model Hall of Famer Pete Parker who won a heat in the late models, and 2006 National IMCA Modified champion Benji LaCrosse. LaCrosse appears to be not nearly as strong in 2007. I think he was second or third in the points standings, and he wasn't a factor in the feature. He hasn't done well at Luxemburg this year in either time that I saw him race. The photographs turned out well too since the grandstands are fairly close to the racing action.
