Not washed out yet

Six weeks out, one race in. Such has been the luck at ABC Raceways in Ashland as its robust schedule and hefty race purses have been slowed by yellow flags on race days due to uncooperative weather.

With sixty years of experience, however, ABC and its award winning three-eighths of a mile red clay oval will persevere and on June 27 play host to the third annual Farm Stock Special, sponsored by White River Ag Products of Mason. The event pays tribute to area farmers, and greatly increased purses are being offered for the WISSOTA-sanctioned Fuhrman Design Modifieds, Superior Floral Super Stocks, and Lightning Storm Graphics WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds in attendance.

The Patsy’s Bar WISSOTA Pure Stocks and Berglund Design ABC Six-Cylinders will also partake in the night’s program. With no racing scheduled for June 29, the engines will again roar for a second “Six-Cylinder Slam,” to be presented by the Safari Bar of Ashland, on July 6.
