Tony Stewart will be Master of Ceremonies on night in remembrance of late Godfrey
MILLSTADT, Ill. (June 17, 2007) – The O’Reilly POWRi National Midget Series will pay tribute to the late wife of one of Midget’s racing longtime chassis builders with their race July 20th at the fifth-mile Macon (Ill.) Speedway. The O’Reilly POWRi 600cc mini-Sprints, and a non-sanctioned late model race, also join the evening’s card.
John Godfrey has been active in POWRi since its inception and Spike is one of POWRi’s strongest supporters and sponsors. This race will remember and honor Godfrey’s wife, Dana, who was instrumental in Godfrey’s racing success. This year, Spike will give away a new chassis at the season-ending banquet via a drawing.
Two-time NASCAR Nextel Cup Series champion Tony Stewart will join competitors and fans as the evening’s Master of Ceremonies. Stewart, a devout Midget fan, owner and former champion driver, drove several of Godfrey’s Midgets earlier in his career. Stewart currently fields Spike dirt Midgets which tour with various sanctioning bodies.
Track Enterprises and local Promoter Bob Sargent have decided to make this event a 40-lap Memorial race.
POWRi is currently selling lap sponsorships at $100 each, with the goal to raise $4000 total for the 40-lapper. A third of that is expected to go to the feature winner, bringing the winner’s share to $2500. The money will be spread throughout the field, with money going toward each feature starters. Donations from interested parties who want to put money toward the purse but not sponsor a lap will also be accepted.
Those interested in sponsoring a lap or donating to the purse can contact Marty Boyer at 785-527-2372 or by visiting POWRi’s website www.powri.com for more information.
