Southern Iowa Speedway Stat Cruncher Through April and May!

Southern Iowa Speedway Stat Cruncher through April and May

Mother Nature has certainly been a head scratcher all year and several weeks looked very questionable at the Southern Iowa Speedway but The Southern Iowa Fairboard, Promoter Mike Van Genderen and Jim Jaennette made it happen every week the weeks they were able to race.

Due to Thunderstorms and Floods the final race of the month of may was cancelled and the sport mod special will be made up Wednesday Night June 26th. As you know the season started with 3 consecutive rain outs back in April (3rd, 10th and 17th) before we ran 5 straight nights.
