Florence Speedway
Denny Kleier Memorial on tap this weekend!
This Saturday Florence Speedway will host an annual tribute to one of our fallen racers. May 21st will be the 9th Annual Denny Kleier Memorial for the Pure Stock division. On this night, the Pure Stocks will compete in a $500 to win feature in honor of one of our past track champions, Denny Kleier. The night will be capped off by a 20 lap Pure Stock feature. We are also pleased to announce that Turfway Grill and Bar has stepped up and is putting an additional $300 on top making the race pay $800 to win! Also on the card will be regular shows for the Late Model and Modified divisions.
New position at track opens up
As part of our efforts to police the tire rule and the chemical treating of tires, we are adding a new race day position at Florence Speedway. This person will be responsible for collecting tire samples during race nights for testing, as well as other tire and rule policing functions.
Interested persons should be well versed in Late Model and Modified rules and have experience grooving and working with racing tires.
Anyone interested in the new position should contact Josh King at jking@florencespeedway.com or see him directly at the track on race day.
