MSCS
on Radio Goes Racing |
|
Henderson, KY (July 21, 2006). Hoosier
Tire MSCS Series Director, veteran racing announcer and broadcaster Barry Boone
will be traveling back to his hometown of Owensboro, KY, to make an encore
appearance on local talk radio. The
weekly program is broadcast every Monday evening at 93.9 on WKTG FM.
Listeners know to tune in to: “Radio
Goes Racing” after each weekend during the season.
“Radio Goes Racing” moderators are Billy Eggler and Jay Velotta.
This duo of race commentators currently announce at the Western Kentucky
Speedway at Nebo where they highly entertain and inform the crowd. The guest appearance by Barry Boone follows last week’s
invitation to join the program to pump the upcoming August 5th
Hoosier MSCS race at Western Kentucky Speedway.
Billy and Jay have already been working to enlighten race fans about MSCS
and rekindle the spirit for sprint car racing in the Bluegrass State.
That one and only MSCS 2006 race in Kentucky will in fact be the Kentucky
Sprint Championship. It will be one
exciting 30 lap A-main with a big title looming!
One MSCS competitor will already be a champion midway through the
season’s fourteen race dates with the conclusion of the race at Nebo.
The sale of one time driver permits to incoming racers opens this
opportunity to any driver who shows up and runs by the rules and regulations set
forth by MSCS. The feature pays
$1500 to win.
Sprints have never raced on this 3/8 mile speedway which was built and
then operated by the Coble family. Promoter
Tim Coble is enthusiastic about the upcoming MSCS stop and is also scheduled to
be at the live radio program Monday night.
Western Kentucky Speedway has already hosted two gigantic late model
shows this season. Dirt Motorsports
has played to a full house twice with the WoO Late Models and then the UMP
Summer National Late Model tour.
Longtime MSCS fans will recall that Donnie Gentry captured the inaugural
MSCS Series driving title back in 2001. Gentry
is from Henderson, KY and one of a half dozen family members who race or field
sprint cars. This southern most
MSCS race on this year’s schedule should draw a talented field of drivers. The track’s actual location could produce some unique
chemistry if some of the sprint car racing teams with a southern orientation
take advantage of this opportunity to take on the top MSCS regulars.
Be sure to tune in if you live in or are passing through the listening
area Monday night. “Radio Goes Racing” is also available to those with
broadband service at wktg.com. The
program lasts from 7 to 8 o’clock Owensboro time.
MSCS is sure to be a hot topic!
