Auto racing is an expensive sport. The monetary return for local racers is minimal.

At best, the money they make racing may pay for some gas and a tire or two.

The rest of the money required to compete and provide you with a night's racing entertainment has to come straight out of the drivers pocket.

With the economy the way it is right now, it is becoming increasingly harder and harder for a driver to justify spending the money required to keep the car on the track.

The costs to a driver (Late Model & SuperStock) ranges between $6,000.00 and $12,000.00 just for entrance fees, upkeep and repairs Per YEAR.  The costs for other classes is as much and in some cases more (Super Modifieds for example).

You Can Help.

To be fair to Dan & Terry....there is not a lot to update untill racing season starts.

To keep your mind off of the stress of having to meet both Terry & Dan on the track at the same time, sit back, relax, have a cold beverage and play one of the games listed on the left side menu.

Just a reminder, Registration for drivers started Wednesday Jan. 20 at Meridian Speedway.

Does the thought of 2 In Front cars on the track at the same time have you worried?

Are you stressed about meeting BOTH Dan & Terry on the track?
