Now that Hilltop Speedway has put 2 nights of kickass racing in the books for 2019, it's time to salute the man that made this all possible. Without Jeff Norris and his crazy dream to bring back a track that had been dormant for 30 years, Hilltop Speedway simply wouldn't exist today. This Friday night April 19th we will do our very best to honor the man and his dream. If you weren't around back when Jeff turned an overgrown junk yard into the best place to see side by side dirt racing, come on down to Hilltop this week to learn a little history. If you were lucky enough to be around to witness the transformation from the start, please come to honor Jeff and his family on this very special night. Either way you will be treated to a full night of awesome racing, just as Jeff had envisioned. All divisions except Mini-Wedges will be in action and the spotlight will be on the Late Models. They will be chasing $2000 to win the 27 lap Feature. McKenzie Concrete will give $50 to all Late Model Heat Race winners, and DFC Racing Carburetors will hand over $100 to the fastest qualifier. McKenzie Concrete will also give $25 to the fastest qualifier in the Modified division. You won't want to miss this show folks!

While I'm passing out salutes, I'd like to send out congrats to the first 2 winners of the fast qualifier bonus money from DFC Racing Carburetors. On opening night it was Tyler Carpenter and on week 2 it was Larry Bellman. Congrats guys!

A HUGE congrats also goes out to Dwayne Powell for picking up the Mini Truck feature win this week on his very first night out with his DFC Racing carburetor. Awesome job Dwayne!!!
