FREMONT, Ohio - Nothing says spring time in Northwest Ohio like the roar of 
racing engines emanating from the historical Sandusky County Fairgrounds in 
the heart of Fremont, Ohio. Fremont Speedway kicks off its 58th year of 
racing Saturday, April 18, as Pepsi Night presents the Fort Ball Pizza 
Palace 410 Sprints; Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprints; and the 
Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks.

The 2009 season promises to be more exciting than ever, as not only will 
"The Track That Action Built" crown its own champions in each division, but 
soon the Kistler Race Products FAST (Fremont Attica Sprint Title) 
Championship Series will begin. The FAST series offers 11 point races each 
at Fremont Speedway and Attica Raceway Park and with the Kistler FAST Cup 
champion walking away with $10,000 in money and contingency products.

The big questions coming into the 2009 season are:

- Can Byron Reed continue his dominance in Northwest Ohio 410 sprint car 
racing having won the last two track championships at Fremont Speedway and 
the last four at Attica?

- Can Stuart Brubaker repeat his 2008 championships in the Fremont Federal 
Credit Union 305 Sprints at Fremont and the Fremont Fence 305 Sprints at 
Attica? Or will one of the many sophomore year drivers or the great field of 
veteran drivers step up and challenge?

- Who will win the "rookie of the year" award at Fremont Speedway with a 
talented crop including Duane Zablocki, Sheldon Haudenschild, Mitch Harble, 
Kevin Lee and more?

- Can Clyde, Ohio's Jim McGrath repeat as the Fremont Fence Dirt Truck 
champion at Fremont or will the track's all-time career feature winner Art 
Ball get the title or can Cory Ward come back from his 2007 championship to 
snare another?

- Who will be the surprise in each of the three competitive divisions?

- What "travelers" might the fans see at Fremont Speedway with its rich 
purse and the Kistler Race Products FAST Championship Series as incentives?

The answer to these and many more questions will be played out over the 
summer at "The Track That Action Built."

Gates will open Saturday at 4 p.m. with racing action heating up at 7 p.m. 
Admission is $12 for adults; $10 for senior citizens; $6 for teens ages 
11-16; and kids 10 and under get in free. Pit passes are $25.

"We know the economy has had a tremendous impact on everyone and we worked 
hard over the winter to form great marketing partners with the business 
community so we could keep our ticket prices unchanged from last year," said 
Fremont Speedway Promoter Rich Farmer.

Fremont Speedway is located just south of the Ohio Turnpike Exit 91(south of 
the U.S. 20/St. Rt. 53 intersection) at the corner of Rawson Ave. and North 
Street.
