Tiffin, OH — This weekend, March 19-21, 2010, will provide a sure sign oof spring when the Northern Ohio Sprint Car Show opens at the Tiffin Mall in
Tiffin Ohio.
As of this press release, there are 36 full sized cars and numerous
karts scheduled to appear. There will also be 6 vendor displays on
hand for the fans to shop.
The Northern Ohio Sprint Car Show is once again being sponsored by
Fremont Speedway and Attica Raceway Park. Both tracks, along with the
FAST series, will have displays on hand where fans may pick up a
schedule or discuss the 2010 season with officials.
Headlining the show will be the popular winged sprint cars. In
addition, fans will get a strong sense of racing history as 10
vintage cars will be on display. As is always the case, the racing
karts will be strongly represented. Other entries include UMP late
models, trucks, Attica & Fremont pace vehicles and a pair of drag
strip cars.
The strong history theme will be taken one step farther as one mall
unit will be reserved for use as a “Hall of Fame”. This display will
contain a large collection of racing memorabilia, photos, videos and
slide shows. Aditionally, the Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame display
will make a rare guest appearance at the show on Friday night only.
A couple of units east of the Hall of Fame room, the Hoserville, Ohio
room will be a flurry of activity all weekend. Tim Nickles Sprint Car
Simulators will run in the room all weekend. On Friday night from
6-8:00, WFIN, 1330AM will tape a series of interviews for later
broadcast on Dwight Allens Racing World, with interviews conducted by
Lisa Hammer and John Wells. On Saturday at approximately 1:00, John
Wells will conduct a Racing Trivia Competition featuring track
announcer Brian Liskai, ARP Director Rex LeJuine, NBC 24
Meteorologist Norm Van Ness, Bryan Autullo from FAST, Duane Hancock
from Hoserville Ohio, and photographer Rick Sheerer.
At 2:00 the Hoserville Ohio Injured Driver Benefit Auction gets
underway, featuring a huge collection of memorabilia and collectables
going up for bids. Following the auction, a simulator competition will
get underway along with a cornhole board tournament.
Several charitable efforts will be present as well. Community Hospice
Care will be selling tickets for the annual Baumann Auto Group
sponsored car raffle. The Clyde Cancer Cluster will also be making
their appeal, and will be displaying a vintage 1965 Fremont pacecar.
The weekend will conclude with the awards ceremony on Sunday at 4:30
