Richards, Drueke, Wade, Richards & Jenkins conquer the High Banks at Jr Fan Club Night

By Greg Soukup

Saturday was one of my favorite evenings at Eagle Raceway as Mom’s Popcorn, Empire Fence and Twin Rivers presented Junior Fan Club Night. Seeing that long line of our younger fans, jumping up and down and cheering at the thought of getting to ride in an actual race car around the high banks of America’s Home Track was a sight to see. Then, watching as they made a lap around the track with huge smiles on their […]

By Greg Soukup

Saturday at Eagle Raceway saw the crowd greeted by sunny skies and the usual August humidity as they filed in for Rock ‘N Roll Classic night presented by A1 Iron, the Nebraska Lottery and Demon Decals. 80’s music, a mullet contest at intermission accompanied by kid’s bike races kept the fun going during the few down times of racing action.

Steinbach, Armstrong, Gilland, Andersen & Galusha win at Eagle’s High Bank Showdown

By Greg Soukup

After 3 blazingly hot days of 100 degree plus heat  drenching rain Saturday morning cooled off the temperature to the mid-80’s as the Lincoln Stars and High Noon Sun Dips presented High Banks Showdown at Eagle Raceway. That same rain presented a huge problem for the crack track prep team, but they managed to provide a great racing surface for the competitors.

There were no serious incidents in the preliminary racing action.

Jeremy Down led the first lap of […]

Stutzman, Carter, Harr, Danley & Hurt win at the Kick your Boots Up Event

By Greg Soukup

The fans were late showing up to Kick Your Boots Night presented by Platte Valley Equipment and Pepsi Cola of Lincoln last evening at Eagle Raceway. That was probably due to the heat and humidity. Both went away as the evening progressed but the racing action turned up the heat on the track.

I’ve always said that one of the best, if not THE best part of doing what I do is interviewing first time winners and those […]

Richards, Drueke, Pfeifer, Wayman & Armstrong are victorious at Fan Appreciation Night

To be honest, I had great fears that we wouldn’t get to see Fan Appreciation Night presented by Avid Realty and Empire Fence last evening at Eagle Raceway. As I neared the Lincoln city limits Mother Nature opened up the skies and let go with a deluge so hard that we were slowed to a near crawl. Thankfully, as I got 3 or 4 miles east of town the rain ceased and was never to be seen again that […]
