CEDAR RAPIDS, IA (July 31) - Racing resumes this Friday night at ASA-

mile and half-mile tracks.
The Performance Concepts Late Models return for the third time this season and
will be joined by Miller Time Modifieds, Barron Motor Supply IMCA
Stock Cars, Barron Motor Supply IMCA Hobby Stocks, Sunline Hornets, IMCA
Sportmods, and Go Karts. The Budweiser Sportsmen have the week off.
