FREMONT, Ohio - The two tracks sit just a little over 30 miles apart. Both 
have a loyal following of race teams and fans. Both tracks work together to 
ensure the teams and fans have an affordable, fun weekend of racing. Now, 
the promoters of Attica Raceway Park and Fremont Speedway will put on their 
race suits and battle each other in two special match races.

Attica promoter John Bores, a weekly competitor in the track's UMP late 
model division, and his son, Mike Bores, also a late model driver, will 
battle Fremont promoters Rich Farmer and Andy James, both,former race 
drivers, in the special match races. The Bores team will pilot late models, 
while Farmer and James will drive 305 sprints.

The first race will take place on Saturday, July 18, at Fremont Speedway 
when the Sunoco American Late Model Series competes along with the 305 
sprints and dirt trucks. The challenge moves to Attica Raceway Park on 
Friday, July 31, when the 410 sprints, UMP Late Models and 305 sprints are 
in action.

"We got to joking around about it and John (Bores) said 'let's do it.' We 
felt the fans might have a lot of fun with this. We looked at the track 
records of both divisions at each track and they are pretty close. While the 
late models have more horse power, they are a lot heavier than the 305 
sprint car...I think it will be pretty even," said Farmer.

"Of course John and Mikey have a big advantage as they race every week and 
Andy and I might get in the seat once a year if we're lucky....guess we'll 
see. Maybe next year Andy and I will get in the late models and John and 
Mikey will drive the sprint cars," joked Farmer.
