KINROSS, MI
After Mother Nature washed out their initial opening event of the season, the Kinross Speedpark is geared up for a special Saturday afternoon show this weekend.
Saturday, June 9 the quarter-mile asphalt oval will open the Twin Sault’s stock car racing season with their “Blue Deuce” John Lowery II Tribute event presented by Auto Value – Rudyard Auto Sales.
The show will be highlighted with a Twin 22 ABC Stock Car Division feature along with full show in the Modified, ABC Stock Cars and Four Cylinder divisions.
Trophies for the Top 3 in the ABC-A, B & C Divisions will be proudly provided by Gray’s Up North.
Time trials are set for 1 PM with racing action at 3 PM.
John Lowery II, from Elmira MI, was a competitor at the Speedpark for three seasons.
The quiet, and loyal competitor competed at Kinross from 2015-2017 while completing the clean sweep during his memorable last event at the track on July 9, 2017.
He lost his courageous battle with cancer just over a month later (August 22, 2017).
