OCT 3 TRACK UPDATE. Yes, we had another inch of rain over the last 24 hours. Unlike other Iowa dirt tracks we can take the rain. As I've said before, Hawkeye Downs Speedway is very special. Grandstand parking is on pavement or rock, 75% of the pits are on pavement, most infield is paved, with lots of drainage tile. Look at this picture and see how well the track drains. With sun in the forecast Friday, we'll be able to get on the track and start packing. Saturday is sunny and mid 60's. We are getting calls from drivers from all over looking for a place to race. Great racing, Great food, Great fan base, Dirt on the Downs is the place to be this Saturday night! BUT, if you can't make it, check out the Miller 100 on IMCA TV or SPEEDSPORT TV.

The Sept 26 event has been moved to Oct 17th. The Sept 19th event which had been moved to Oct 17th is now cancelled. We were able to get the rest of the block wall installed. However, it is still too wet, and we are unable to get to the dirt we need to back fill. With the rain we got over night and the forecast for rain Saturday we wanted to let drivers and fans know ahead of time and not wait till the last minute to announce. We are doing everything we can to get these events in. We just need a break from the rain. A updated schedule for all events will be posted this weekend.
