Hall was among the first racers on the track when the Scott County oval track opened in May 1991. In the years since, a handful of family members have competed at the track, and several still compete there in weekly events. They'll be among those racing for hefty payouts Friday.

***$50 Hard Luck Award to a driver in the Feature.
***Additional $50 added to 3 finishing spots in the Feature from 6th place back. How this will work is once all cars have signed in, numbers 6-? (depending on total cars) will be put in a hat and 3 numbers randomly drawn. Those 3 spots will have $50 added to their existing pay scale.
Hall experienced success at Benton Raceway Park in both the late model and sprint divisions, where he spent the final years of a career that began in 1954 in Flint, Mich. After moving to Southeast Missouri, he became a top contender at now-closed tracks in Cape Girardeau, Charleston, Sikeston, Blytheville, Ark., and Marion, Ill. His career led to wins throughout the Midwest and South, and for two years in a row he held the distinction of winning season championships at three different race tracks. He ultimately landed in the NASCAR ranks for a handful of Winston Cup superspeedway events in the mid-1980s before returning to dirt racing.
