More than ever race the oval July 10
Forty eight racers took part in Night at the Oval July 10, a modern-era record for the event. As this third edition marks the end of the 2018 season for NatO, big thanks to John Burge, Larry Howe, and Goosetown Racing/New Pi for making it happen.
Also, thanks to Angy Snoop for the great photos (angysnoop.smugmug.com).

June 26 Night at the oval without a drop
Twenty-some racers made it to Hawkeye Downs Tuesday, June 26 despite a sketchy looking weather forecast. Their efforts were repaid with a beautiful evening of bike racing without a drop of rain. The turnout didn't match that of May 8th, but that was no surprise since NatO had been abruptly cancelled June 12 after a crashed semi tractor necessitated repairs of the track. The next Night at the Oval, the last for the year, is Tuesday July 10.

Record turnout for revived Night at the oval
Forty-five cyclists raced the Night at the Oval May 8th, the most in modern times in the series' first event after a three year absence. Night at the Oval, a mix of short track-inspired races at Hawkeye Downs Speedway in Cedar Rapids, was revived by our friends at Goosetown Racing Club.
What goes around comes around. Tuesday, May 8, for the first time since 2014, bike racing returned to the Hawkeye Downs Speedway in Cedar Rapids with Night at the Oval.
