FLAT ROCK’S JOY FAIR MEMORIAL, STAN YEE MEMORIAL TO RUN AS 1 RACE AUGUST 10
FLAT ROCK, MI: (7-30-13): With Mother Nature’s unwanted assistance, Flat Rock Speedway has had to alter its scheduling after several rainouts in the past weeks. Saturday, August 10, the Joy Fair Memorial and the Stan Yee Memorial will be combined into 1 race, for 150 laps. Diamond Racing Products and Moran Chevrolet will sponsor the biggest race of the season.
“We have simply run out of dates,” noted Ron Drager, owner-promoter of the track. “After 2 postponements of the Joy Fair Memorial and now the rainout of the Stan Yee Memorial last Saturday, our options have dwindled,” added Drager. “We will now honor the memory of Joy Fair and Stan Yee for the August 10 race, which will be 150 laps.”The pit pass prices and front gate prices will remain the same as they were for the 150 lap event that was scheduled for July 27. The event will pay $2533 to win and $533 to start the contest, with over 30 drivers from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Canada expected. The lap money will rise to $10 per lap, as the laps have sponsors for each of the 2 races. That will now be combined to move the amount to $10 per lap. In addition, several laps have additional bonus money attached.
Diamond Racing Products has posted $333 for fast time, in honor of Yee’s famous car number, #33.
