OSKALOOSA — Rains moved into the Oskaloosa area in the wee hours of the morning of June 17th and the rains continued well into the morning leaving the officials of the Southern Iowa Speedway with no other choice than to cancel the weekly Wednesday night racing program. The Bicycle give away promotion scheduled for the 17th of June has been moved to Wednesday, July 1st.

Next up at the Southern Iowa Speedway will be the return of the Super Late Models as the Malvern Bank SLMR Series will return to the Mahaska County Monster 1/2 mile dirt track on Wednesday, June 24th. The Gary Wilson Memorial event promises to bring many of the very best Super Late Models drivers to Oskaloosa for this very special night of racing. In addition to the Super late Models, all regular weekly classes of cars will be in action racing for a greatly expanded purse. Hot laps will get underway at 7:15 with racing to follow the conclusion of the warmups.
