Knoxville Draggins Car Club & National Sprint Car Museum
Partner on Motorcoach Trip to “Speedy” Bill Smith’s Museum of American Speed
KNOXVILLE, IOWA (January 25, 2010) - The Knoxville Draggins Car Club and the
National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum are pleased to announce that they
will be partnering on a roundtrip motorcoach excursion to “Speedy” Bill
Smith’s Museum of American Speed in Lincoln, Nebraska, on Saturday, April
17. The trip will be highlighted by a three-hour guided tour of the National
Sprint Car Hall of Fame inductee’s personal collection of motorsports
memorabilia, including many historically significant open-wheel race cars.
Said Knoxville Draggins Car Club member “Butch” Smith this week, “We feel
honored to be get this chance to have a personalized behind-the-scenes look
at one of America’s premier automotive museums. Many couples from our local
car club have already reserved their space on this 56-seat motorcoach, as
have many National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum Foundation members. We
need all pre-paid reservations in by March 17, and I don’t think we’ll have
any problems filling the bus. This truly will be a once-in-a-lifetime
experience for many of us ‘car nuts’!”
The motorcoach will depart the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum
parking lot in Knoxville on Saturday, April 17, at 8:30 a.m. It will arrive
in Lincoln, Nebraska, at 12 Noon, with a light catered lunch being the first
order of the day. Following lunch, at 1 p.m., the guided tour will commence.
The bus will then depart “Speedy” Bill Smith’s Museum of American Speed at 4
p.m., returning to Knoxville at 7:30 p.m. The cost per person is $35, which
includes the roundtrip motorcoach ride, light lunch and guided tour.
The tour is limited to 56 people, handled in a first-come, first-served
manner based on the date of full payment. Cash, checks, money orders and
credit cards are accepted at the National Sprint Car Museum store. Checks
should be made payable to the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum,
