If you don't already have plans to attend the 2011 edition of the Eagle Nationals, featuring the Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint cars, then you had better change your plans. The nationally touring 360 sprinter drivers are coming into town to take on the Eagle Raceway regulars on the high banks of the fastest 1/3 mile dirt track anywhere!! And it all happens June 10^th and 11^th, 2011!!

The Eagle Nationals has a long and storied history, and last year Tony Bruce Jr. decided to bring the national ASCS tour to be a part of it.

2010's preliminary night feature saw the ASCS regulars nearly shutting out the locals for the top spots, with only Billy Alley's 8^th place finish making the top 10. Danny Wood, Travis Rilat and Zach Chappell were the podium finishers in a thrilling A Main. Saturday evening saw local Jack Dover finish a very close second to winner Jason Johnson, who would go on to capture the 2010 ASCS points crown last season with Shane Stewart bringing it home third.

This year will again see a 2-day battle in the bullring that is "America's Home Track". Will the touring pilots again emerge victorious in this, their second visit to the track, or can the strong field of drivers who race weekly at Eagle band together and show the visitors how it's done? You can bet that the locals will be doing everything they can to keep the majority of the purse for themselves.

The front gates will open at 5:30 both days, with racing beginning at 7 P.M. You can save $5 by purchasing a weekend pass for only $30 for adults. Friday evening's adult admission is just $15, with kids 6-12 $5 and those 5 and under free. Saturday night adults are $20, kids 6-12 only $5 and children 5 and under free.

For more information or to purchase your advanced tickets just go to the Eagle Nationals page on TBJ Promotion's website at http://www.tbjpromotions.com/events/?i=1110 or call 541-778-8630.

You won't want to miss this event at one of the finest facilities in the country. Eagle Raceway is located at the junction of Highway 34 and Nebraska Highway 63; just 11 miles east of Lincoln on Highway 34, or a mere 11 miles south of exit 420 on I-80.

I am lucky enough to work at one of the best tracks 
anywhere.

Planning on it, depends if we're still on OT or not. Asked for these days off 3 months ago, but if they say you work you work.
