Norway Speedway Track Article

With the season opener just a month away, Norway Speedway is gearing up for another season of high paced racing.

I interviewed Jim Stachina, the current Vice-President of Norway Speedway. Jim, a long time fan of Dick Trickle, has been associated with the club for the past 4 years and has been participating in the 4-cylinder division since 2001.

Jim Stachina, the current Vice-President of the speedway, is anticipating a great racing season. When asked about the economy, Jim expressed no worry about the attendance in 2009. “The economy is affecting everyone. Michigan’s Upper Peninsula’s unemployment rate has risen to its highest point in years, where roughly 1 in 10 are now unemployed. We pride ourselves with our ticket prices and advertise ourselves as a very inexpensive family night out. We hope to entertain and take everyone’s worries away for a few hours.”

The Auto Value Bumper to Bumper Challenge Series will be changing for the 2009 season. Instead of a 3 race series with a champion, Norway Speedway will be featuring two Auto Value races instead, pooling all them money into larger payouts attracting more out of town talent.

The highlight of the 2008 season, the Drive Line 100, will be making a come back for the 2009 season. Norway Speedway held the first pay per lap event in the country, and with great success. Jim anticipates the Drive Line 100 to be even bigger this year.

Norway Speedway will not be making any significant rule changes, keeping in line with tracks in the north-eastern Wisconsin area. Ticket prices are staying at their low rate, $9 for adults, $7 for students, $5 for 6-10 year olds and 5 and under will be free. In times like these, that is a low price to pay for a night of family friendly entertainment!
