The Silvis Dirt Oval Has Been Reconfigured. Track Is Slightly Longer And Much Wider. We Had A Handfull Of Guys Run On Tuesday, All Very Pleased With New Layout. Corners And Staights Have 14' Lanes, Cars Ran High And Low, Should Provide For Good Racing. We Had Planned To Hold First Race On April 28, But The Rain Took Care Of That. We Will Spend This Coming Week Re-grooming The Track. Should Be Ready By Mid Week. Any Questions Call Tim 309-751-9663.

what days do they race?

race days will be wednesdays and saturdays, races will start at 7pm both days and will be $10 first entry and $5 there after.wednesdays we will run 2 heats and a main so racers can get to work in the am. saturdays we will run 3 heats and a main or mains with possible bump ups.power is supplied but you may want to bring an extension cord and a small work table as we will be pitting outdoors. hope to see everybody soon as this new configuration should provide exciting racing. the track has many racing lanes and is plenty fast

Will be there! Hope there there is a good turn out. I love to race in a bunch professional drivers

whoa!!! wait a minute i wouldn't say professional. we're just a bunch of guys who love to get together and have some good racing fun. we rub, bump, and an occasional what the ---- just happened. if we can do alot of rubbing and laugh about it later i guess we're your professionals.

Cmon JT ive never seen any pros come from the qcs. Elbow and i are coming. We are wanting to race electric trucks, JT has 1 too. So we can make a class. Maybe even attract some more guys.

JT again went to silvis tonite what a excellent track! kept loseing tierod ends cant figure it out but i will one way or another. 4 & 5 car wide raceing!! a little loose but will be there early to help straighten it out. I'S SMOOTH HIGH BANKED AND A BLAST TO RUN ON. H ope to see a good turnout saturday! JT world wide

I Couldn't Stay(work), But I Was Told Every One Liked The New Layout. Hopefully The Rain Will Stay Away And We Can Spend Sat. Grooming And Not Repairing. Expecting Good Turn Out Sat. See Everyone At The Track

jason hoping to have pics up within the week.

hey guys how are all of you.well this saturday we're going to find how much car this track can handle. have had several inqiries abut running gas on the track. i'm fine with all that you can bring to run. so i have a few guys who want to try some 1/8th scale buggies, and think it should be pretty interesting to see what they can do. i also need to post my classes since have not done so. stock classes consist of 4300 and 19t, mod is anything bigger. we have stock and mod edms,two wheel late models,sprints, and trucks. so far just stock on the sprints,late models and trucks, but would like to see more of all. will be posting pics real soon, trying to finish small details before posting.will be racing this weekend, wednesday, and the holiday weekend weather permitting. also have no battery rule ,any battery is fine with all of us. basically my rules are pretty laxed, and i only have one. iwant everyone to have a good time.

Thats the best rule ever!

Jt Missed You Wednesday Night, Were You Staying In The Cardboard Castle. Hoping To See You All Saturday Night Weather Permitting.

ya sucks being broke!! may have to get a second job the way gas is going up! will bet here sat 4 sure! JT

thats gonna be a far drive for you bud, its on the illinois iowa border

yeah you may want to check out # 95 on the track finder. thanks for the interest but may be a little far to travel for a one day event. and the way the weather has been, would feel terrible for someone to travel that far to watch it rain. thanx again tim

Lets pray for good weather saturday. I cant wait to race with you guys. Even brian! I can smell the track dogs now!! :thumbsup:

Had a great time last night. Track was very nice :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Be back soon to run more EDM and SPRINTS.

Hi guys, maybe somebody can give me some help . It would be appreciated. When to the track Sunday. I was watching rc10gt but they were using different chassis. One was called ( Bart Chassis ) and the other one ( Leake Racing Chassis ) I tried to find the Company on the Internet. I could. Does anybody know if these chassis any good. Or where you can go to find out about them. They did very well. For oval racing. Appreciate any information I can get.

Hey Guys 6 Week Points Series. It Will Be Split Into Wed And Sat. Will Start On Wed June 20 And Sat. 23. We Will Be Running Elec. Sprints, Edms, Trucks For Sure And Whatever Else May Come Our Way. Hopefully This Series Will Not Conflict With To Many Other Races. I Know There Is Suppose To Be A Race On July 7 So We Will Have To Talk About Running That Saturday. Thankx Everybody And Hope To See You Wed. And Sat. P.s. This Is Also Posted On D.oval.

hope to see more fun than ever its always a blast to race there! JT world wide

thanx jt glad youre having a good time down here. was terribly hot but i think we all got thru it very well. will be working on that back wall tonite so we can try to keep them crazy trucks on the racing surface. and we all know who im talking to not mentioning any names (jenzo). which by the way will have some ponies for you this week. which hopefully you all remember is the first week of the points series. see ya all at the races.

Thats all i want is some good clean fun competition. I think i had too much power in my sprinter.. :drunk:

well i tried to run you down but that 10.5 just didnt quite have enough. but thats ok we'll just have to be careful not to hurt the others feelings if you know what i mean. we may have to make some adjustments to what we're going to run especially for the point series(motor wise). chat at ya later

Jenzo my race master i need that power 4 my EDM! our trucks are made for off road but but not that far off road TRAMA MOE! July 7 are we all going to this special race ? lets do it and woop some ass! Where was crazy toe nee? lets rock and have fun JT world wide

JT im gettin a tractor to fix my track. July 7th youll be runnin in kewanee...All weekend...

hey jt you were off road, but will cure that nasty back stretch for this weekend. yes jenzo that means the wall will be up. i might leave a small opening for the shrek mobile to go off roading though. just remember the point series will still be going on for the 7th since nobody has said they are going anywhere else. see ya at the races. p.s. i have that horsepower problem takin care of!!!!!

by the way guys the sprint car class is growing mike murphy picked one up and i think donnie is too. and i know bill murphy is close to having his done. so looks like we could have some good close wheel to wheel racing real soon. and i can't wait these things are such a blast to drive.
