Eagle/Ott #9
Sprint Raffle Car to Make Appearance at Performance Racing Industry
(PRI) Trade Show
KNOXVILLE, IOWA (November 28, 2011) - The National Sprint Car
Hall of Fame & Museum will be taking it’s Eagle Motorsports/Don Ott Racing

David Herrmann will be present with the car in booth number 5710 in the

The 24th annual show, professionally organized by Steve Lewis, is
open only to those within the motorsports industry, worldwide. According to
museum executive director Bob Baker, “It is hard to believe, but this will
mark the twenty-fourth consecutive year that we will be exhibiting at the
Performance Racing Industry Trade Show. G. Wayne Hall represented the
museum at the very first show in Louisville in 1988, and Tom Schmeh and I
have been keeping the tradition going every year since, with the help of
Steve Lewis and his tremendous team at PRI. We were very proud to partner
with them at the 2011 Knoxville Nationals by hosting the inaugural ‘PRI
Salute to Sprint Car Builders & Manufacturers’ reception, which we hope will
be an annual affair.”
In addition to the winged 410-cubic-inch
Don Ott-powered Eagle Motorsports sprint car grand prize, other prizes to be
awarded on December 21, 2012, are Bell GTX.2 Helmet from Bell Racing USA,
