For those that don't know, Cleveland County Speedway (formally known as Thunder Valley Speedway) will be hosting the Twister 100 this weekend. A picture of the track taken by ace photographer Brittany Randolph can be found at left. We ran a front page story today about the event, which is expected to draw racers from as far away as New York, Kentucky, Missouri and more.
I, however, will be unable to attend this weekends races since I will be working all weekend. Bad for me, but that doesn't mean you local folks can't check it out.
As local driver Richard Clew said in the story today (found at http://www.shelbystar.com/articles/track_29150___article.html/clew_drivers.html) everyone starts at this level, even the most experienced NASCAR guys had to get their start somewhere. So who knows, you might just see the next Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart, Carl Edwards or Matt Kenseth this weekend.
