This race finished out the racing at the Cave for the year. Thanks to everybody who made it another successful year at the Cave.

The fourth annual Sweetheart race is on tap for this Friday, April 9th, at the Cave Speedway beginning at 7:00. This race gives the ladies a chance to showcase their abilities on the slot car track and it always proves to be an entertaining and "unique" event. Come show your support for the ladies!

The last race of the season Friday night at the Cave Speedway saw the crowning of the top five late model drivers. Congratulations to Track Champion, Junior Cooper, for a very successful year. Brian Massey was second in points; Mike Nail claimed third; Tyler Williamson earned fourth; and Travis Clarke rounded out in fifth. Junior Cooper also won the Championship for the Pure Stock Division. The Sprint Car Championship was won by Alan Sagi. Thanks to all the drivers in all three classes for a competitive, fun year of racing.
