Coming Soon...9th Annual GRP Racing Trivia Contest (Hosted by Minnesota Dirt Track Racing website)
The track crew at the mythical MDTR Speedway is busy
making preparations for the 9th Annual GRP Racing Trivia Contest. The
annual contest format will change a bit from the past few years. There
will still be four divisions in action, but the super stock division
will be expanded to include street stocks and a few IMCA stock car
questions/photos as well. At the request of several fans, I will try
and make the contest a little bit easier in 2008. That is not to say
there won't be a few nasty old questions thrown in to try and prevent a
perfect score.
The contest will run in two one-week segments.
Another change this year will see the first week of the contest kick
off at 12:01 AM on Sunday January 20, 2008 with the sprint car and late
model divisions running through Saturday January 26. Then the modified
and the revamped super stock/street stock/stock car divisions take over
with their contest dates running from Sunday January 27 to Saturday
February 2. Each division will have seven full days of competition. By
splitting them up into one week segments, contest promoter GRP will
have a chance to keep up-to-date with all of the events that take place
at the MDTR Speedway while concentrating on two divisions each week.
Head flagman, Stan M, returns to the flagstand for his 9th contest.
Stan will once again be keeping a close eye on the competition on the
track, as well as the activity near the beer stand where Vinster's
Maximum Babes (VMAX) all-girl pit crew will once again be signing
autographs during intermission. The campground area will get wild from
time to time, especially if that Bloomer0 fan from over by Shawano
heads west again and mixes it up with the Superior fans. Zimmy has been
known to capture some interesting pics with his Monster Zoom during
past contest action. The host of characters who enter the contest in
hopes of bringing home the top prize in each division usually provide
plenty of photo ops and plenty to write about. The fun begins about ten
days from now. Stan M will throw the green flag on the contest and set
up links to it from his MDTR Message Board and the 20/20 Racing Page
forum. As always, the contest is free to enter.
