The United Midwest Promoters Summer National Tour will make its annual stop at the Paducah International Raceway on Friday June 26, 2009. This will be the 22nd year for the Summer Nationals Tour and the first time Paducah International Raceway will host a $10,000 to win Summer Nationals date. The tour consist of Super Late Models running 27 races in 6 states in 30 days, a true test for man and their 700+hp machines which might also explain why the Tour is called, “The Hell Tour”.

Defending UMP National Champion and 2008 Summer National Champion Dennis Erb from Carpentersville IL will be attacking the high banks at PIR. Erb will have some of the best Late Model drivers in the country attempting to keep him at bay at PIR. With the likes of Billy Moyer, Shannon Babb, Jason Feger, Matt Miller, Justin Ratliffe, Terry Casey, Kevin Weaver, Randy Korte, Brian Shirley and Chris Wall along with many more touring drivers. Paducah International Raceways defending track Champion Dylan Thompson will lead the local contention to vie for the feature win and $10,000 pay day.

Excitement is expected to continue with this race because of an earlier race in the year. Paducah International Raceway ran a $10,000 to win race, and the action was outstanding. Door to door for 50 laps not knowing who was going to come out on top, with a photo finish at the checkered flag. There is no reason not to expect the same outcome with this race.
