Stock Car Racing Starts Tonight

The green flag will wave on another season of racing at South Buxton Raceway tonight.

Promoter Sherry Lemesurier says some of the cars have already been out on the track practicing.

"The track was awesome last weekend, it was fast -- these guys were flying," says Lemesurier, who is hoping the good weather will draw out a great crowd. "We'll be giving the fans a ballot and they will fill it out and vote for the best appearing cars, which will be announced the following week."

The gates open at 5:30pm and racing starts at 7pm.
