ELDORA
SPEEDWAY MAJOR RACE DATES ANNOUNCED
ROSSBURG,
OH (Sept. 30) -- With respect and honor to tradition, Eldora
Speedway officials have released the dates for four of their
2009 major race meets.
Kicking
off the major event slate will be the newst member of the 'fab
four', the Prelude to the Dream, on Wednesday night, June 3.
With a heavy involvement of NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers, the charity
event has played to a capacity crowd each year, and has been
aired live on HBO pay-per-view. Similar plans are in the works
again this year, with a possible twist to the format that will
generate additional excitement amongst the dirt Late Model world.
Just two
days later, June 5 & 6, Eldora's stage becomes home to the
15th annual Dirt Late Model Dream, complete with a $100,000
paycheck for the 100-lap main event winner.
Winged
Sprint Cars are on the menu in July for the 26th annual running
of the fabled Kings Royal weekend. The Knight Before the Kings
Royal fills the July 17 timetable and then the following night,
Saturday, July 18, the $50,000 crowning of a new King takes
place with the completion of the Kings Royal.
Eldora's
longest standing tradition, the World 100 for dirt Late Models,
returns for the 39th time, over the weekend of September 11
& 12. This year's edition will see $42,000 going to the
event winner, but more importantly, the cherished globed trophy.
Tickets
for the Dirt Late Model Dream, Kings Royal weekend and the World
100 go on sale December 1, 2008 beginning at 9:00 AM. Tickets
will be available online 24/7 at www.eldoraspeedway.com beginning
that date, or by calling the track office at (937) 338-3815
during normal business hours. The ticket campaign for the Prelude
to the Dream will take place at a later time, to be announced.
