Racing

You could hear those pro-mod engines roaring all the way out by the entrance of Lucas Oil Speedway last Sunday (June 10), as the drag boats took to the water for the 2012 John Haas Memorial Drag Boat Classic in Wheatland.  I had never been to drag boat races before, and if you haven't experienced it, I highly recommend checking it out sometime.

We asked you to send us your "dirty" photos, and you delivered!  We want you to pick your favorite dirty photos.  The ones with the most votes by June 25 will win tickets to Kix Night at the Races at Lucas Oil Speedway!

I’ll Have Another will not run at the 144th Belmont Stakes on Saturday. The horse, who was vying to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978, was ruled out by his trainer Doug O’Neill, who spoke about the matter on ‘The Dan Patrick Show’ on radio Friday morning.

This year marks the 10th year since Mike White had the genius idea of turning a cornfield into a raceway.   (For some reason I have in my head, "If you build it, they will come"). Friday was KIX 105 Night at the Races, so I made my trek down 16th Street in Sedalia, or as some call it, Highway Y.
