Weekly Friday night racing kicks off May 24 with the grandstand opening at 5 p.m.

to 1 p.m., followed by a practice session at the track from 2 p.m.

“Truth is I really love that track and the people up there I get along with almost all of them,” Kralovetz said.Ī total of 17 events are scheduled with things getting started Saturday, May 18, with the annual Island Resort Car Show in Harris from 10 a.m. 41 during heavy “up north” traffic every Friday afternoon. There are bevy of factors that keep Kralovetz and his team making the three-hour round-trip tow on U.S. I think overall the weekly teams will be a little more even this way.” Then a couple times someone showed up with newer tires it seemed like us weekly guys were always behind the eight ball so to speak. We had a couple of instances where we had big races on our really used up tires. “What we had last year didn’t really work perfectly because of the rainouts. This season the Dickinson County Racing Association (DCRA) is allowing scanned, used tires from Wisconsin International Raceway in Kaukauna in an effort to lure outside drivers. Kralovetz will defend his title with his 2015 Lefthander chassis.įor 2019, one late model rules change includes drivers being able to purchase two new tires per night for regular, weekly “non-special” races. Last year’s titles came down to the final weekend of racing as Kralovetz had the third-generation racer Iverson breathing down his neck all season long. Of the guys who usually run weekly Robby (Iverson), Tom Lindquist, Dan Lindsley, Scott Stanchina and Jason Wells will be very tough to beat among the weekly drivers up there.

“It’s not going to be easy at all as there are a ton of drivers who’ve picked up their game. “We plan on going for a fifth straight title,” Kralovetz announced. The Bonduel, Wis., driver won four straight late model titles at the Upper Michigan track – something that’s never been done in the history of racing at the track’s third-mile, paved oval. “We did guitars for Brad Paisley, Gary Hooker, who plays in Brad Paisley’s band, Dave Haywood of Lady Antebellum and the Band Perry,” said Jeff Neville, owner of Neville Guitars.
