the Lebanon I-44 Speedway. Will Vaught, Jack Sullivan, Jeremy Payne,
Brandon McCormick, Al Purkey, and Brad Looney will be amongst the many
Super Outlaw Late Models expected to race both Friday and Saturday
this Labor Day Weekend at the high banks of the Lebanon I-44 Speedway.
Friday night, the Lebanon I-44 Speedway will hold qualifying heats for
the front of the field, plus a qualifying feature, and a $1,000-to-win
A-Modified race. Saturday night, qualifying MARS heats for the back
of the field and the 40-lap $10,000-to-win Late Model feature will be
