This is going to be the club's fourth time doing this event... Our annual Sycamore Speedway Night!
This family friendly event is something a little different and a total blast! Sycamore Speedway features stock car racing, figure 8 races, and the highlight event... THE DEMOLITION DERBY. What's even better is this is the last night of the season. Basically, no one wants to take care of their beater cars over winter or pay to store them at the track. So they go all out, smashes and crashes all over the place! If you haven't done this in the past its something you can't miss. We have designated parking and even have the chance to take a parade lap during the National Anthem for those brave enough to take on the 1/4 mile clay track. There are also concession stands available. Don't forget your stadium seat cushions and blankets to keep you comfortable. It So now to the details:
