From WRP
For the second week in a row, a racing pioneer will be honored for the countless hours of time and energy they put into the sport they loved so deeply. This Saturday night July 11, Waynesfield Raceway Park in Waynesfield, Ohio will honor Waynesfield native, Dick Spencer.
In its fifth year, the Dick Spencer Memorial once again focuses on the power of non-wing sprint car racing in the Midwest. Joining Waynesfield’s very own weekend warriors, the Mo Vaughn Transport Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Series will make a stop in the cornfields for a $1500 payday.
The Performance Powder Coating AMSA Mini Sprints, Post Agri Service UMP Modifieds, Block Insurance Tough Trucks, and Indian Lake Outfitter Compacts continue their points battle as the season comes to the halfway signal. Mother natures wrath of rain that plagued the first half of the season has made points races that much more difficult. Saturday’s running of the Dick Spencer Memorial will see pit side gates swinging open at 4PM; grandstands at 5PM. Cars hit the racing surface for hot laps at 6PM with racing following at 7PM. Adult general admission is just $12. Children ages 11-15 years old are admitted for just $6. Anyone ten years of age or younger are admitted for FREE. Pit admittance is just $25. Saturday’s race is being brought to you by Ron Spencer Reality.
