Starting the season with the Race Party Car Show
ROWENA, S.D. (KELO) — The dirt track racing season at Huset's Speedway in Brandon is scheduled to start one month from today on Mother's Day, May 11. It's was foggy morning on Friday of cleaning the outdoor coolers and sprucing up the grounds at Red Rock Bar & Grill in advance of Saturday's Race Party Car Show. 'It's a fun time to get the local racers together with their cars and everything before they get dirty and banged up on the race track,' Red Rock Bar & Grill owner Mitch Runge said. Student faces misdemeanor for leaving gun in car The afternoon event is expected to include dozens of local drivers and a variety of race cars. 'There'll be everything from go-karts and quads to 410 sprint cars,' Runge said. Runge says the event allows fans of all ages to get hands-on with the cars. 'Everybody can kind of hang out, enjoy them, and get up close and personal and touch them, kids can come and see them,' Runge said. 'One of the best things, the funnest things for me, is to have the little kids coming up and being able to shake their hands and have them sit in your car and you bounce them a little bit and let them do their thing inside the race car,' sprint car driver Jay Masur said. Masur has spent nearly five decades with the MED-Star Dirt Track rescue team. He's also a second-year sprint car driver and considers everyone at the track family. 'You get to go see your family there and you don't have to worry about them pushing you into the wall or anything else, by accident most of the time, but it's that time where you can talk and have fun about the things that happened last year that weren't so fun,' Masur said. 'I'm kind of the older guy out there now but it's still fun to drive,' sprint car driver John Lambertz said. Lambertz has been racing sprint cars for more than 30 years and says he changes up his car every season, adding an element of excitement to the race party. 'You bust your hump all winter long to get your cars done and you kind of get to show them off, all your hard work that you did on the off-season,' Lambertz said. A former driver himself, Runge is ready for opening night and the future of the sport. 'Local racing is strong,' Runge said. Drivers are encouraged to unload their cars at Red Rock Bar & Grill between 9 and 11 Saturday morning, with the party running from noon until 4 p.m. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
