Kasson Speedway June 26, 2008 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Kasson, MN - Kasson Speedway switches racing night to Thursday. In a major announcement, Speedway officials stated their plans to switch from Sunday to Thursday nights starting with NASCAR Night on July 24th. “The month of August will hopefully begin a new era in Kasson Speedways history. We realize there is a long standing tradition of Sunday nights at Kasson, unfortunately it just does not work anymore and in reality it hasn’t for a long time.” Stated promoter Scott Mondus. Mondus went on to state that he and his staff have conducted interviews, surveys, and numerous one-on-one conversations with fans, drivers, and sponsors. The issue almost always was associated with Sunday being the problem that prevented attendance or participation. The unfortunate reality is Kasson Speedway is a business in a very competitive marketplace in close proximity of two other racing facilities. We hope this bold move will gain the support of drivers, fans, and sponsors as the alternative is not a subject we would like to state. It is our belief that being last in line puts us at a severe disadvantage, and it has been communicated to us that Sunday is reserved for a day of rest, family time, or that their entertainment dollars have just plain been exhausted by Sunday. It is our hope that the move to Thursday nights will be the catalyst to revitalize Kasson Speedway and give us a jump start on the weekend and our competition. A reminder on upcoming events prior to the switch; July 2 (Wed) 360 Sprint Cars plus MWM $500 to win, July 11th (Fri) “Eve of Destruction, July 20th (Sun) Fair Race, July 24th (Thurs) NASCAR Night “Featuring Kenny Wallace.” For More Information Scott Mondus 651.226.3706 |
