I've updated the 2007 racing schedule and 2007 rules sections on the Volunteer Speedway Web site at www.volunteerspeedway.com
You will notice where the Super Late Models will only race three Saturdays out of each month. With the World of Outlaws sprint cars scheduled in March during Bristol Motor Speedway NASCAR weekend, and a $5,000-to-win Super Late Model show the following night; then $3,000-to-win SLM events scheduled each month, along with the Scorcher 100 and another $20,000-to-win World of Outlaws Late Model show in October, it all adds up to a very ambitious 2007 schedule for Volunteer Speedway.
There's a possibility that an American Motorcycle Association flat-track (type) motorcycle national event will be held at the track in 2007. A couple of the top racers' from AMA will be at the track next week testing, trying to see if the bikes can compete on the high banks. And there's also the possibility a Monster Truck event could be added to the schedule.
Some may say, "I don't like motorcycle racing or Monster Trucks." Well, the racetrack is also an entertainment complex, and anything that might possibly be a good (entertaining) show for fans of all ages, the track must look into scheduling events like that.
