Racing for All Sorts This Weekend at Marshalltown!

This weekend at the Marshalltown Speedway there will be racing for all sorts of fans and drivers as this weekend we will have weekly stock car races and go-karts, quads and bikes racing.

On Friday Night it will be Hy-Vee and Hogeland Auto Plaza Kids Night at the races and there will be double features in all classes because of the rain that came in right after the qualifying heat races had been completed forcing the features to be postponed until this week. Promotor Toby Kruse of Kruse Motorsports wants me to remind you there will be no hot laps on friday as we will start racing at 7p because of the extra races and after the make-up features are finished a full night of racing will happen.
