By Jack Walbring
QUINCY, IL (Sept 29) - The first annual October Fest Shootout at Quincy
Raceways on Sunday, October 5 will feature not one but two $2500 to Win
Feature events. The Budweiser J&J Steel IMCA Late Models will be battling
for their slice of the $13,100 purse with the winning taking home a $2500
winners share. The fifty lap main event will pay at least $200 to start and
all non qualifiers will receive $75 in tow money.
Quincy Raceways has tried two different times to run a $2500 to Win Modified
Shootout but the weather has not cooperated in either of those efforts so

forty lap feature event will pay at least $175 to start and all non
qualifiers will receive $75 in tow money. The modifieds may run the UMP or
Wissota Mod Tire A-40 or H-40, the D-40 will be allowed on left front only,
