The Sandusky Speedway Karting Series opened the events last Wed. and was well received. Thursdays one dollar Fan Appreciation Night drew over 2,000 fans.
On Fri. the ISMA Supermodifieds and Modifieds were the main attraction. Doug Meyer was the man to beat in the Modifieds as he won Friday and Saturday nights feature races.
