Mother Nature's sorrows make the kids weep at Hilltop Speedway
With Ohio Outlaw Motorsports set to take over “The Hill” with motorcycle and quad racing, on Friday, July 29 and Saturday, July 30, Kids Night will now be held on Saturday, August 6, when the green flag drops on the Mini Wedge Invitational, while the Holmes Tire Late Models, Tri-State Modifieds, Street Stocks, Guerne Heights Drive-In Mini Stocks and Atom’s Pest Control Trucks all return to action as well.
Fans holding wrist bands from Saturday, July 23 can use them on Saturday, August 6 or Saturday, August 13, when all six divisions will be in action again for the rescheduled Driver Autograph Night.
With the regular season set to wrap up with championship races on Saturday, August 20, Hilltop Speedway has only been able to complete eight full nights of racing in 2011, with eight other scheduled race nights having been flushed down the drains by heavy rains and thunderstorms during a tumultuous spring and summer weather season in the skies above Holmes County.
