The Hamilton County Speedway is determined to be best racetrack with the best racers battling for the best payouts in the State of Iowa and surrounding regions, and with the release of their 2021 schedule it looks like they’re well on their way.
At least 27 nights of action across 21 events are penciled-in at the historic dirt oval in Webster City, Iowa, with Olsen Family USRA Modifieds, Seneca Foundry USRA Stock Cars, Stein Heating & Cooling USRA B-Mods, Diamond in the Rough USRA Hobby Stocks and MyRacePass USRA Tuners serving as the featured classes during Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series events.
‘Show me the money,’ was an iconic quote from the title character in the movie Jerry Maguire, and the track’s promotional team is gearing up to do just that.
The schedule includes four Modified Madness events with the winner’s share on those nights starting at $2,000 on April 24 and concluding August 28 with a $10,000-to-win show. B-Mods will also compete for big money on these nights.
For the full-fendered fans, there are four Stock Car Challenge shows with top prizes of $1,000 on April 10 and growing to $3,000 to win the final one August 7. Hobby Stocks get much more during these events too.
