For those teams that plan to attend the MOWA opening weekend this
Friday and Saturday at Jacksonville Speedway and 34 Raceway, here is
some information you might find helpful.
Jacksonville Friday April 12th
Pit
gates open at 3:00. Our fairgrounds underwent major renovations this
winter and with the forecast calling for significant rain in the next
few days, it is likely that we will be pitting cars different than usual
to try to assure you the firmest possible ground for your tow vehicle.
We are asking that if possible, you please notify us if you plan to attend and tell
us the length of your tow vehicle so that we can allocate enough good
pit area for our Sprints. Contact Ken Dobson by phone or
text at 217-371-3653.
Heat in engines: 5:30
Pill Draw closes at 6:00
Drivers Meeting 6:00
Hot Laps 6:15
Pill
Draw will be in vicinity of pit concession stand. Lineups will be
posted there as well. Please Note that this is a change from typical
MOWA routine at Jacksonville due to the potential for scattered pit
parking.
Drivers are NOT required to purchase a temporary membership and there is no entry fee. Buy your pit passes and race.

Please
note that the GPS address of the Speedway is 110 N. Westgate
Jacksonville Illinois.However most GPS systems will bring you to the
wrong gate of the fairgrounds using that address. Teams are asked to
enter through the South West gate of the fairgrounds on Westgate Avenue.
Jacksonville
fully expects to hold this event on Friday. We are aware of forecasted
lower than normal temperatures and plan to go forward. There is little
to no chance that we will cancel this event due to cold, based on the
current forecast. Current forecast shows some rain over the next few
days which we believe we are prepared to handle with no bad weather on
race night. Unless something drastic changes, this event will be held
as scheduled.
