15 August 1999

WEST LEBANON, NY- Now is the time to make your plans to be at Lebanon Valley 
on September 11th and 12th. Don't delay or you will miss out on the CARQUEST 
KINGS 200 Weekend. The high banks of Lebanon Valley are where the action will 
be at on this huge weekend of competition. There will be close to four 
hundred feature laps run on the West Lebanon speedplant. 

    The highlight of the weekend's racing action will be the CARQUEST 
NATIONAL 200 for big block modifieds. This is one of the first stops on the 
HOOSIER TIRE; SUNOCO RACE FUELS MR DIRT MODIFIED TRAIL. Many of the top names 
in DIRT motorsports will be on hand, trying to earn important points toward 
the overall Mr. DIRT Championship.

    Kenny Tremont is the defending champion of this race and after his 
performance in Mr. Dirt Track, USA he is certainly one of the pre-race 
favorites. Tremont will have his hands full as some of these DIRT drivers 
shine in the extra distance races. Hearn, Horton, Johnson and Decker will be 
a few of the drivers looking for the victory.

    The modified are certainly not the only division at the Valley for the 
CARQUEST KINGS 200 WEEKEND. The highlight of Saturday's card is the annual 
RACE OF KINGS for 358 modifieds sponsored this year by SARATOGA SPRING WATER.
