        MACON, Ill. – On the season finale for Macon Speedway Saturday night, drivers go for championships and trophies while the fans get a chance to go home with a prize – or maybe the experience of a lifetime. During the Hornet World Championship presented by DynaGraphics/ILMO, Macon Speedway will hold a free raffle where one lucky fan will win a ride in the two-seat Late Model. Bring the camera. It just might be you. Thanks to our generous sponsors, there will also be plenty of gift certificates and prizes handed out. Macon Speedway will hold racing in seven classes in the final night of racing in 2014 after adding the highly competitive B-Mods to the lineup.
DynaGraphics will also hold a contest for a $500 voucher good toward any product in its lineup, including a vehicle wrap. The Decatur-based company specializing in signs, printing and wraps will show off its products, and a lucky contestant will win a prize package valued at $500 from a giveaway during the racing program. The voucher will be good toward any wrap, sign, graphics project or printing by DynaGraphics, 3220 N. Woodford St., Decatur.
ILMO Products will distribute coupons to the first 1,000 ticket holders for a free pair of OSHA approved sunglasses.
