Northern Allstars Late Model Series and NASCAR Star Bill Elliott to Invade Macon Speedway This Thursday, July 22 

MACON, IL (July 20) - Race fans will be treated to a special event this Thursday night as the Northern Allstar Series will make its way to the super fast Macon Speedway.  Fans won’t want to miss this exciting night of racing when all of the Late Models who attended the Summer Nationals Series will be back in action this Thursday night.  The event will be a special night for racers in the Late Model division as they will be earning National points towards the NALMS, UMP Series and they will pick up points to towards Macon Speedway.  The Late Models will be racing for $2,000 to win and much needed points.  The UMP Modified division will also be racing this evening with $600 up for grabs for the first place finisher.  Thursday night will also be a special night for the fans as well, not only will they get to see wheel to wheel racing action; they will also be treated to a Night of Nascar Stars where track owners Ken Schrader & Kenny Wallace will bring Nascar legend Bill Elliott to the track for the first time to sign autographs for the fans.   

Join us as the local UMP Modified drivers like Davey Crawley, Mark Tullis, Aaron Burcham and Danny Smith try and show the Nascar Stars they know a thing or two about racing in the dirt.  Schrader and Wallace will both be behind the wheels of their UMP Modifieds racing for Federated Car Care.  The Macon Speedway points race in the UMP Modified division is a close one with #37 Davey Crawley AKA “Elvis” in the lead over Macon’s own Mark Tullis piloting his #T2 UMP Modified.  Crawley is leading Tullis by a mere 56 points with 11 more nights of racing at Macon Speedway.  Come out to the track to see who will reign supreme in the UMP Modified division; local track heroes or track owners.   

The gates will open for spectators at 4 pm.  The racing action will kick off at 7 pm with Late Model qualifying.  Adult tickets are $20, Children 12 & Under are $5 and pit passes will cost $30.  The autograph session will take place from 4:30 to 5:30.  Don’t miss your chance to see Awesome Bill from Dawsonville at Macon Speedway this Thursday night!
