Lucas Oil Speedway is looking for people with great voices to help kick off racing nights during the upcoming season.

National Anthem singers are just one of several ways fans can get involved and become an integral part of the festivities during the 2022 season.

“Our opening ceremonies are a special part of the program,” Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager Danny Lorton said. “Drivers presenting the American Flag as they slowly circle the speedway in their race cars as the Anthem is performed, it’s a tradition that everyone enjoys.

“I know we have a lot of talented singers out there and we would love to have them on hand to help us get the race-night started by performing the Anthem.”

Those interested can submit a demo recording to Lucas Oil Speedway administrative assistant Lisa Lorton by email at lisa@lucasoilspeedway.com.

Car, Motorcycle Clubs: Another activity that’s been popular over the year is Car Clubs or Motorcycle Groups to show off their vehicles during a night at the races.

The speedway will publicize the appearance in pre-race press releases the week of the event. Clubs and their members need to arrive by 3 p.m. on race day as a group to set up on the Midway, behind the main grandstands.

Vendor spots available: Meanwhile, there also is room on the Midway for non-food and non-drink vendors throughout the season where businesses can sell their products.

Booth spaces are available in 10 x 10 foot, 10 x 20 and 10 x 30 sizes, with or without electric. There are spots available for one-day shows, plus two-day and three-day events. Prices start at $150 for the Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series events.

“Vendor spaces on the Midway, which has high foot traffic throughout the evening, is a great way for businesses to market their products to race fans,” Danny Lorton said. “Now is the time to reserve a space, particularly if you have a specific race date in mind.”

Vendor applications can be found on the speedway’s website along with more details on spaces. For more information, contact the speedway office at (417) 282-5984.

Season openers: Lucas Oil Speedway has an open Test and Tune set for April 9 and another for April 16. The 9th annual Pitts Homes MLRA Spring Nationals are set for April 22-23. The Big Adventure RV Weekly Racing Series Spring Opener opener is set for April 30.

For ticket information for any future event at Lucas Oil Speedway, contact Admissions Director Nichole McMillan at (417) 295-6043 or via email at nichole@lucasoilspeedway.com.
