SPECIAL EVENTS HIGHLIGHT UPCOMING SPEEDWAY 95 SCHEDULE
A pair of special Thursday night events highlight the upcoming schedule at Speedway 95 in Hermon as the racing season hits it’s mid point in central Maine.
On Thursday, July 14, at 7:00 p.m. Speedway 95 presents the “Wreaths Across America” 50 lap Ikey Dorr Memorial event for Strictly Street, Outlaw and Wildcat type cars, sponsored by Worster Wreath of Milbridge with help from Banners and Signs of Hermon. The event, promoted by Chuck Hall of Milbridge, is in it’s second year, and is done as a tribute to his friend Ikey Dorr, a street stock racer at Speedway 95 who suffered a fatal heart attack while competing at the speedway in July of 2009. Hall has posted $1000.00 top prize for the event, with $750.00 for second and $500.00 for third. The purse also includes $20.00 lap money for every lap led, so if anyone leads all 50 laps and wins, they could go home with $2000.00 in their pocket. Hall says he has had a lot of interest in the event and expects over 40 cars to register. All other regular Saturday night divisions will also be in action that night.
