Invitation: 40th anniversary of first race at Summit Point

Post by aqualls »

To all FV and Vintage drivers,
Forty years ago in October of 1969, Summit Point Speedway opened with a FV Grand Prix. This October 10th and 11th, marks the 40th anniversary commemorative race of that inaugural event - to be run as part of the MARRS series at Summit Point Motorsports Park. We invite and urge you (National and Regional drivers) to complete your racing season by joining us for a wonderful celebration and race weekend. In addition to race trophies and tee shirts a drawing will be held during Saturday's lunch break to distribute prizes to competitors. Prizes will range from race tires, cash, to engine suppliers' gift certificates and services.
Please take a moment to check the history, contact and registration information on the web site we set up for this 40th anniversary race:

Looking forward to racing with all of you,
Dan Voss FV#88 and Anna Qualls
WDCR-SCCA FV drivers' representative
