It all comes down to this Saturday night, a season of fender-banging, wall-slamming excitement concludes with two extremely exciting point battles. Defending NASCAR Stanley Steemer Late Model Champion Jerry Gille holds a slim thirteen point advantage over seven time champ Ricky Bilderback. Gille has been hot as of late, recording his second win of the season last Saturday night. However, it has been argued that no driver has been hotter than ‘Driver X’ Jon Reynolds, Jr who finds himself just twenty six markers out of the top spot with five wins on the season.

(Loves Park, IL)- Officials of the Rockford Speedway announced today that anyone relinquishing a Brett Favre Packer item will receive a $4 dollar discount off an adult reserved admission this Saturday August 22. “The Packer loyalists are hurting right now, and I am right there with them” stated Speedway General Manager Gregg McKarns. “As a fellow Packer fan, there will be nothing sweeter than burning these items with the Green Mamba Jet Car at our Night of Thrills September 19.” The Jets fiasco was forgivable, but the Vikings, not a chance”.
