Kennedale, Tx.,(July 24th, 2010) Kennedale Speedway Park was the site for another round of weekly racing action on the semi-banked, ¼ mile dirt oval. The weekly series includes the IMCA Modifieds, Southern Sportmods, Stock Cars and Hobby Stocks, plus the Street Stocks, Crate Models, Racesaver 305 Sprint Cars, Jr. Mini Stocks and an added attraction this weekend, the Lone Star Dwarf Cars.

The nights off track activities were highlighted by a tribute and prayer for ASCS Sprint Car drivers Travis Rilat and Wayne Johnson, both injured on the west coast, and the memory of Tyson Perez, crew member of Rilat who succumbed to injuries from a shop accident. Racesaver Sprint Car drivers passed the helmet through the stands taking up collections to help cover medical expenses.

On the track the Lone Star Dwarf Cars saluted Lori Palanza a long time official who lost her battle with cancer. The Dwarf Cars all flew the pink “Say No To Cancer” ribbons for the feature fittingly won by her son Dominick Palanza.
