NASCAR Personality Ken Schrader Set For Busy Illinois Racing Weekend

*NASCAR Veteran Schrader Preparing For Busiest Of Race Weekends*

* Four Races In Four Days At Lincoln, Macon, & Du Quoin*


                (Macon, IL) It's not a secret that retired NASCAR driver,
Ken Schrader, still loves to drive race cars.  The Fenton, MO driver ran
his last NASCAR Cup event in 2013 but has continued racing dirt Modifieds
on a regular basis, competing in well over 50 events per year.  This
weekend, the 62-year old will have a real busy stretch, competing in four
feature events, over the course of four days at three different race tracks.


                It all begins on Friday, September 1 at Lincoln Speedway,
in Lincoln, IL when the Federated Car Care #9 Modified competes in the
season finale at the track.  It will be Brandt FIVE BUCK Night at the
track, giving fans a chance to see a six division race program for just
$5.  In addition to the highly talented group of Modified drivers at the
track, Big Ten Pro Late Models, Big Ten Street Stocks, Sportsman, Hornets,
and POWRi Lucas Oil DII Midgets will be in action.


                Schrader and his team then travel to Macon Speedway, in
Macon, IL for Saturday night's events.  Macon, a 1/5-mile, high banked
bull-ring is one of three tracks that Schrader is a co-owner of.  Schrader
will compete in the Billingsley Elite Wash Modified division, where he had
won an event earlier this season, fending off fellow NASCAR personality,
Kenny Wallace.  Macon's Saturday event has Pro Late Models, Street Stocks,
Sportsman, B-Mods, Hornets, and Beach House Micros in addition to the
Modifieds.


                From the two Central Illinois races, the attention turns
about 2.5 hours south at the Du Quoin State Fair for a big Sunday/Monday
racing doubleheader.  Schrader will be looking to defend his title in the
Bill Oldani Memorial Modified division, after a dominant effort one season
ago.  While Schrader has won four out of the last five Du Quoin Modified
events, no doubt, he'll have to step it up a little more as the entry list
is filled up with some stout competition including 3-time NASCAR Cup
champion Tony Stewart, who will be driving a team car to Schrader.  A total
of 30 Modified pre-entries have come into the Track Enterprises office for
the Modified show.


                "I have a special place in my heart for Du Quoin, as I went
there for the first time in 1963 with my dad and slept in the wagon
overnight." Schrader added, "This year it's really exciting, getting a
chance to race the Modified, the Silver Crown car, and having Tony in one
of my Modifieds.  Should be fun."


                The event that may just bring the biggest excitement out of
Schrader will be his USAC Silver Crown start in Sunday's Ted Horn 100 in Du
Quoin.  It has been 32 years since Schrader has run a Silver Crown car at
the Magic Mile track.  The Silver Crown event has 36 cars on the pre-entry
list, with Schrader's being the McQuinn Motorsports #14.  Schrader's Sunday
will be extremely busy, having to hotlap and qualify the Modified and
Silver Crown car, plus run a heat race in the Modified, and finish off with
the 100 lapper for the Silver Crown cars.


                Schrader is looking forward to wearing the car owner hat as
well. "I'm really looking forward to Monday too, as we'll have two cars in
the ARCA race with Austin Theriault, who's leading the points and Brandon
Grosso, a dirt mod driver from the Northeast. Austin was really close at
Springfield so hopes are high for Du Quoin."
