Hello everyone! As most of the Racing Community knows, the previous contract with the county ended on October 3rd. Our intent was to start our move in the following week. Johnson Productions got a one week extension from the county, but now as we understand will be staying until the end of October. The delay for High Road Promotions is one we did not expect. The loss of time has affected many items such as remodeling, sponsorships, class and employee meetings, as well as tire testing and race events.
It appears we may not have any late fall or winter races after all. The safety lights were removed with only the wires remaining on the fences. We will continue to move forward with our many plans for rebuilding Evergreen. The onsite presence just lends to quicker and easier communication for potential vendors and sponsors. In no way will this slight delay cause any adverse conditions for the start of a new race season!
We have received dozens of inquiries about the Championship Banquet. At this time, we have not received word one way or another from the Johnsons on their intent. Unless facilities were previously booked for this event, we have found only a few venues with any space available over the next three months. Please let us know if you have more information!
In the near future we will be launching a NEW WEBSITE for the Speedway. Johnson Productions has elected to keep evergreenspeedway.com. We hope this will not confuse our fans, sponsors or teams who have relied upon the site for news and updates.
