With Mother Nature getting the bulk of the IRA headlines this week, as her wrath cancelled Oshkosh and has postponed our opening night excitement for hopefully just one week. All eyes are now focused on Beaver Dam Raceway in anticipation of getting the new season started on April 27th.
Well we with the IRA feel like we need to get people talking about the 2013 Bumper to Bumper IRA Outlaw Sprint Series in a positive manner. Enough talk about the weather!
We can't think of anything more positive to tell our fans and sponsors than this.....
Tony Stewart will be racing with us on June 15th!
3-time NSACAR Sprint Cup Champion Tony Stewart will be piloting his Chevrolet Performance #14 in the IRA portion of the IRA / MSA Sprint Car doubleheader at the Sheboygan County Fair Park's Plymouth Dirt Track on June 15th. How cool is that!
Tony will be making the trek from Michigan International Speedway that afternoon following NASCAR Sprint Cup practice, and then returning there from Plymouth to compete on Sunday afternoon in the Quicken Loans 400. Where there's "Smoke" there's fire, and we couldn't think of a better way to heat things up during these unseasonably cold days we're currently suffering through.
Tony takes his Sprint Car racing serious, and this is one of about fifty or so Sprint Car events he'll be competing at this year, in addition to an all ready very full NASCAR schedule. We with the IRA think it's absolutely great that Tony has the passion for racing that he does, and that he not only gives back to his racing roots, but actually participates in it. There are other potential IRA date(s) being discussed for later in the season, but this date at Plymouth is official so mark it down, Saturday June 15th at Sheboygan County Fair Park in Plymouth, Wisconsin.
