Findlay, OH, August 17, 2015 – It’s been nearly two months since the All Star Circuit of Champions headlined the grand re-opening of Millstream Speedway and left the large excited crowd wanting more. This Sunday, August 23, promoters Randy and Lisa Hammer will deliver just that, with a return of the popular winged sprint car series to the ½ mile oval, paying $5,000 to win the feature event. A full program of 305 cubic inch sprint cars will share the night’s schedule.
Race fans can expect a program similar to the July event, with a few changes. They’ll certainly see fast race cars – last month’s event saw top speeds clocked at over 120 mph! An autograph session and race car display will take place in front of the spectator area prior to the racing action, followed by racing trivia and other prize contests. New this time around is the Millstream Water Balloon Challenge, with divisions for all ages – including the adults! All gates will open a little later, at 3pm, with on-track action beginning a little earlier, with hot laps now at 5:30pm and race time at 6:30pm.
