Houston replaces Joliet; Heartland Park moves to Father's Day weekend
Kansas City (Jan. 28, 2010) – Houston Raceway Park has become a shareholder in the Super Chevy Show series and has set a date to be part of the 30th anniversary season in 2010. The Baytown, Texas facility will replace Route 66 Raceway on the schedule and will host a Super Chevy Show for the first time since 2005 on Sept. 10-12.
Seth Angel is Houston Raceway Park's executive vice president and general manager. He helped get Houston on the Super Chevy Show schedule and is thrilled it could happen so quickly. Houston Raceway Park held Super Chevy Show events every year between 1988-2005.
"The Super Chevy Show event is obviously another marquee event on any racing calendar and it will certainly be a signature event of our racing season," Angel said. "We're thrilled to have it back at Houston Raceway Park and I know it is going to fill a huge void in the Houston market."
SCSW, Inc., bought the series in the fall and the owners have tirelessly worked on preparing for the 30th anniversary season. Billy Meyer, one of the SCSW Inc., owners and the secretary and treasurer of the board of directors, said the schedule has been the top priority.
"We added Houston Raceway Park because we've had so many inquiries from fans in the south about the Super Chevy Show series," Meyer said. "Houston is a great destination for racers in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. Houston also is one of the largest commercial and metropolitan markets which gives our sponsors tremendous opportunities."
Heartland Park Topeka moved the date of its Super Chevy Show up so they could host a Father's Day weekend event, June 18-20.
