MACON SPEEDWAY’S MIDWEST BIG TEN SERIES EVENT THIS WEEKEND AT MORGAN COUNTY SPEEDWAY!

(Macon, IL) Macon Speedway is excited to announce another popular Midwest Big Ten Series race will be held this Friday night at Morgan County Speedway in Jacksonville. Morgan County Speedway, Jacksonville, IL, and Shepps Speedway, Alexander, IL has teamed up with Macon Speedway for our promotion, the “Midwest Big Ten Series”. The three tracks will host a series of races to be held in the 2009 racing season, the dates of the three remaining races in the series are this Friday, Aug 14 at Morgan County Speedway and August 22 at Macon Speedway, then finally at Shepps Speedway to finish out the series. Each of the ten races will include larger winnings to the winner of the feature. At the end of the season the points each driver has accumulated in those 10 races will be totaled and there will be $10,000 distributed throughout the top ten Late Models with the top point fund winner taking home another $3,000!

So far with two of the ten races down our point’s leader is Steve Sheppard Jr. racing his #5 Late Model. Closing in on Sheppard is his son, Brandon Sheppard in his 5B and Kyle Logue in his Sav Mor Pharmacy #21 Late Model. Both Brandon Sheppard and Kyle Logue are close on the winner’s heels. This weekend’s events will be crucial for all three drivers to sustain their point’s leads which will send them into the final weekend of the series on Aug 22 & Aug 23. Not far behind the top three is Macon Speedway’s Chris Dick of Springfield, IL who is currently sitting in second place behind Kyle Logue for the point’s race at Macon Speedway.
