Benton & Cedar County Speedway Reschedule Hawkeye Dirt Tour Dates

A Deery Brothers Summer Series-XSAN Hawkeye Dirt Tour doubleheader at Cedar County Raceway in Tipton has been rescheduled, as has the Hawkeye Dirt Tour event at Benton County Speedway in Vinton.

Both the Deery Series for IMCA Late Models and the Hawkeye Dirt Tour for IMCA Xtreme Motor Sports Modifieds will be at Tipton on Tuesday, Aug. 19. That pairing was originally postponed because of inclement weather on June 10.

A Monday, Aug. 18 Hawkeye Dirt Tour event at Benton County Speedway in Vinton is back on the schedule.

Benton County Speedway track officials are reportedly working to increase the purse for their regular Sunday night program.  This will provide for three nights if racing with limited travel on similar sized tracks. They will have camping available for both Sunday and Monday nights. More details to follow.

Late Models run for $3,000 to win and a minimum of $300 to start at Cedar County. Modified features at Tipton and at Vinton both pay $1,000 to win and a minimum of $150 to start and are now qualifying events for the 2015 Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational ballot.

Track officials have announced that special series events rained out last week at Hamilton County Speedway will not be rescheduled.
