Tribute Race set for July 1 at Fonda Speedway

 Tribute Slated for July 1st at Fonda Speedway
 On Saturday July 1, when the pro stock field takes over the track it will be 
in tribute to fan favorite Hondo Carpenter.  The event commemorates Hondo’s 
last race at the Track of Champions in the #9 car.
 The Hondo Classic, a 20 lap main event will pay extra dividends to the whole 
field.  In addition to the usual purse, the winner will receive a $199.00 
bonus, donated by Mayhem Motorsports and Speedzone.  Second place will receive a 
$99.00 bonus from Kristel’s Lodge.  The bonus money then filters down by $10 
increments.  Those finishing 11th or worse will receive a $9 bonus.  Already 
this season, the 9th place pro stock each week receives $25 in Hondo’s memory 
and this night is no exception.  The 9th place car will receive an extra $29 
plus the $25.
In addition, there will be a raffle for a Stiletto Chopper bike, valued at 
$300 donated by All Seasons Motorsports.  Tickets will be sold at 3/$5.00.  
Proceeds will benefit “The Friends of Hondo Memorial Society�??, a fund established 
to continue bonuses in Hondo’s name.
 Kids in attendance will also have the opportunity to win one of 9 bikes or 9 
bike helmets in a free drawing.  Make sure you pick up your raffle ticket at 
the gate.
Other sponsors for the event so far are AFGD Glass (Hondo’s employer), Roger 
and Cindy Steele, Winner’s Circle Restaurant, Bobco Racing Video, Carman Auto 
Body, Stone Racing, RCT Roofing, Fabco Landscaping and Kaitlyn Keefe.
