2024 Banquet Recap
For those of you who were unable to attend banquet here is a little recap of the night at the National Sprint car Hall of Fame. We started the night off with a nice catered meal from Checkered Flag Concessions followed by some delicious cupcakes from Wendy LaHue. We had approximately 60 giveaways including items from Hoosier, Velocita, Western Trailer, O'Reilly and Knoxville Raceway. Awards were given to all point qualifiers that attended. Track champions received awards, those drivers include Willard Ballard, Ethan Thompson, Levi Ballard, Braxton Flatt, Noah Garr and Gage Stevens. The Rookie of the Year awards went to Willard Ballard, Ella Thompson, Levi Ballard, Carson George, Braxton Flatt, Alex Yoerger, Draven Benge and Levi Hawk. Most improved Drive of 2024 Went to Carter Hansen and the final award of the evening went to Willard Balled winning Driver of the year! All the awards that went home with Drivers were designed and made by Dezine Metal Art right here in Knoxville IA. A special thanks to Ken's Racing Pics out of Knoxville, Ia for providing the slide show photos. It was a wonderful evening with lots of race families, not only from right here in our community but drivers and families that make the trip week after week to race with us. We look forward to seeing everyone on April 18th for Test and Tune.
