The following day the modified drivers will be able to just travel right across the road to race at The New Raceway Park which is a 1/4th mile gumbo dirt oval for their season opener. Also racing will be IMCA Stock Cars, IMCA Northern Sports Mods, IMCA Hobby Stocks, and IMCA Sport Compacts. Both tracks have but a limit on the number of fans you can attend as well as driver entries. Also everyone will be required to wear a mask.

My Experience During the Corona Virus.

I never used to be one to worry about much growing up. Being raised on a farm near a small town doesn’t present to many things to cause anxiety. This Virus literally came during the worst time possible for me personally. I just changed my major in January of 2020 and was really getting comfortable with my new classes. Also I’m a huge sports fan so I was really looking forward to watching my Oregon Ducks bring home the titles this year. Now I’m okay with all the online classes and well I already know the Ducks were going to cut down the nets. Also I had pretty much been social distancing for the past 20 years of being a home body. Hey, at least I still have racing to look forward to… they can’t cancel the race season. Oh but they pretty much did. This is when it became personal, Corona went to far. In a way to sum up all of the clutter above, I’m back home with my family, board as heck and got nothing to look forward to. Thanks China.
