NASCAR Night At Flomaton Speedway; Wallace Places Third
April 23, 2009
Flomaton Speedway had a NASCAR Night Wednesday with NASCAR driver Kenny Wallace racing against local and regional drivers in the IMCA Modified class.
Wallace brought his #36, JEGS-sponsored modified to race with about 17 others in the feature event.
This was the first NASCAR night at the track, and owner Jimmy Goodwin hopes to make it an annual event. A large crowd came out to meet Wallace, get autographs and watch him compete on the 1/4 mile banked dirt track.
Wallace finished third in the main event. After Wednesday night’s race he will be heading to Talladega for more racing this week.
Racing is held every Saturday night with four classes running at Flomaton Speedway. There is no racing this Saturday night, but the action will resume on May 2.
