By Jake Croxton

DONNELLSON, IA (Sept. 18) – The first of three fall specials is on tap at the Lee County Speedway this Saturday night, as Sebastian Sandblasting and Powder Coating presents $1,500 to win 305 Sprint Car Spectacular. The event is also sponsored by Mt. Hamill, Donnellson, and Mt. Pleasant Lumber and Olson Bros. Custom Shop.

Also racing will be the Lawson Racing Engines & Parts Supply SportMods for $300 to win and $40 to start, the Shottenkirk Parts Express Wild Things for $150 to win and $20 to start, and the Mod Lites for $200 to win and $30 to start. The Mod Lite cars are making their first and only stop at the Donnellson 3/8-mile in 2008. The cars have 1200cc motorcycle engines and run Modified-style and coupe bodies. They are most comparable to Dwarf and Legends Cars with minor modifications. Last year, Knoxville, Ill’s Greg Rossell topped a 13-car field.

All classes will race under a draw/redraw format. No entry fee is required.

Bagcraft Papercon and Siemens Power Generation will be the guests of record as they will be hosting employee nights at the speedway.
