𝗧𝗥𝗜-𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗗𝗥𝗔𝗚 𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗘𝗥𝗦

We’d like to give everyone a heads up that all motorhomes, campers, trailers, etc. must be COMPLETELY REMOVED from the pits after this weekend. Racers staying for the LODRS NHRA West Central Division 5 27th Annual Iowa Cornbelt Classic Points Race are welcome to keep their trailers in the pits. If something needs to remain on the property, and you do NOT intend on racing next weekend, it must be moved and parked behind the tower to the east side of the shouse, as trailers are NOT allowed on the north side of the property near the campground facing the highway. We will be coming around this weekend to remind those who typically leave trailers here to move them, and we greatly appreciate everyone’s cooperation and understanding!
