Rice Lake Speedway Presents Trackside Collectibles 40 on May 15th
By Ed Reichert
Rice Lake WI, – The first special event on the 2021 schedule for the Rice Lake Speedway arrives on Saturday night May 15th with the running of the annual Trackside Collectibles 40 for WISSOTA Late Models. The first of three appearances by the Late Models at the track in 2021, the Trackside Collectibles 40 gives race fans their first opportunity of the year to see the fastest cars in all of WISSOTA perform on what is a neutral site for all competitors as Late Models do not run weekly at this track.
With the early date of this event, it will mark one of the very first special events for the Late Models this year and has been picked so as to provide the least conflicts with other tracks and allow as many drivers as possible to participate in this race. Running for the same purse as the WISSOTA Challenge Series offers, the race will pay $2,000 to the winner and $200 just to start the main event. Last year’s winner Pat Doar is expected to defend his title with a full field of drivers from throughout the region expected. The race will also have an international flavor as Winnipeg Manitoba’s Shane Edginton, racing in the United States this Summer, has confirmed his entry to the event.
Offering great value for the race fans, along with the Late Models, the other five divisions that routinely race at the track, the WISSOTA sanctioned Modifieds, Super Stocks, Midwest Modifieds, Street Stocks and Pure Stocks will also all be in action.
Racing action on May 15th will begin with warm ups at 6:30 pm and racing to follow. For detailed information on race event pricing and other details, check the Rice Lake Speedway face book page for updated information or call Dave Adams at 715-205-2861 or Mitch Hansen at 715-205-1122.
