and Night of Destruction!

Saturday July 25

Gates open at 5:00pm, Racing starts at 7:00pm

Never been?  You will NOT be sorry you came out to support KFOV's summer family-friendly fundraiser.  The Sportsdrome Speedway is a quarter-mile asphalt oval and figure 8 racetrack in Clarksville, IN.  For the second year, owner Mike Gibson and the Sportsdrome team are partnering with the Kentuckiana Friends of V to raise funds for cancer research while supporting cancer-related initiatives, including prevention, education, and screening.  Enjoy a full evening of racing culminating in the feature School Bus Figure 8 race!  UofL Football head coach Jeff Brohm will be on hand to wave the starting flag, kids bus rides prior to racing, food and fun!

Can't make it? Show your support by making a donation to the Sportsdrome's special fund set up to help KFOV fight cancer in Kentuckiana!
