& 7, 2007
Raindate for racing will be October 13th
at the Fairgrounds. However, should racing take place on Monday and
Tuesday night as scheduled, a tour race for the Slingshots will still be held on
Saturday, October 13th. More information on this will be posted at a later
date.
Racing is returning to the Reading Fair for the 3rd year!!
Members of RFRHS have been working diligently on the increased sized race track from last year. The track still has the same long straightaways (200' to 250') and is nice and wide(25' to 30').
The 2007 Slingshot by Tobias National Tour will be racing again this year along with some other great local racing. The Reading Fair will be one of the national races run to determine the 2007 Slingshot by Tobias National Champion.
