2017 Sprint Spectacular
My latest photo journal features images from the 2017 Sprint Spectacular at Angell Park Speedway in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. This event was the season opener for the speedway and featured two of the top tours in outlaw sprint car racing. Both the All Star Circuit of Champions (ASCoC) and Interstate Racing Association (IRA) brought a combined 53 cars. Tony Stewart headlined the event along with brothers Ian and Kerry Madsen, and California’s Rico Abreu. Badger Midgets and Wisconsin Dirt Legends were also in attendance.
Temperatures were cool and heavy cloud cover hid the sun, but that didn’t keep diehard fans from filling the stands. The track was fast and records were made during qualifying, but the night was shortened by unexpected rain. Event promotors and track officials are currently working on rescheduling.
