Capital City Speedway: Big show on Sept. 9

From Arnie Malcolm / Capital City Speedway

OTTAWA, ON – Capital City Speedway is proud to announce that on Sept 9th. 2006 they will produce one of the biggest and richest stock car extravaganza’s ever held in this country, and for certain Capital City Speedway.

Besides one of the richest purse’s in Canadian Stock Car history, over $30,000. The event will have something for everyone, including an enduro race, and Trailer Race and to cap it off Monster trucks.

The main attraction for many NASCAR fans will be the 100 lap Late Model Cars, these cars are the same as the cars you watch on TV every Saturday and Sunday from the US. Some of the biggest names in this country’s stock car world will be on hand including Jeff Hanley the son of Legendary Canadian Stock Car Racer Jr. Hanley.

Jeff Hanley is considered by many to be one of this country’s very best drivers, and has proven it with more wins than many to his credit. Other big name drivers include Peterbrough, Ontario’s Derek Lynch, former CASCAR Champion Steve Robblee, as well as many many more.

The $4000.00 to win prize money for the Late Models has brought entries from as far away as Vermont and the ACT Tour as well as Quebec and the Castrol GTX Series. Now add into this some very good local talent who are more than accustomed to the Capital City Speedway Oval, people like Steve Munro, Rick Rump, Dave Rioppelle and a host of others who compete their every Wednesday night during the summer and well you get the picture.

The event will also include all the regular class’s that compete regularly as well as a Canadian Regional Qualifier event for Lengends (dwarf cars) which here to see’s competitors competing unheard of prize money ($1500. to win).

And that’s not all, as the day which will go well into the night will finish off with a 100 lap enduro and a trailer race as well as a number of visits by the Monster Trucks. This is with out question the largest undertaking for a stock car event ever at the speedway and if this summers support for Nascar Style Stock car racing is any indication this event should be a MONSTER, well what you know lets say we call it ‘MONSTER JAM ONE.

Gates open Saturday at 12:00 the action will be non stop will into the evening for more information visit http://www.capitalcityspeedway.ca/
