Thanks to Greg Parent of GRP Motorsports, the opening weekend of racing for the Upper Midwest Sprint Car Series (UMSS) will see the winner take home $1,000 each night. The UMSS season gets underway Friday, April 24, at Kopellah Speedway and continues Saturday, April 25, at Cedar Lake Speedway for the Annual Billy Anderson Memorial Race.

"Greg is a strong supporter of the UMSS and loves the sport of auto racing," says Ron Bernhagen. "He helps out countless drivers, tracks and associations with his own hard-earned money."

The Billy Anderson Memorial honors the memory of Billy Anderson of Dayton, Minnesota, who passed away as a result of complications from a sprint car acident in June 1998 at Knoxville Raceway. Billy's career as a sprint car driver, although brief, made a profound impact on the local racing scene.
