RAPID CITY - Two nights of meetings for Black Hills Speedway drivers begin tonight at Flags and Wheels Indoor Racing, 405 12th Street, at 7 p.m.
Speedway operator Bill Keester said drivers of Mini-Sprints, Street Stock-Pure Stock, Wissota Super Stock and Midwest Modifieds will meet tonight.
Drivers of Wissota A Modifieds, Sprint Cars, and Wissota Late Models will meet Thursday at 7 p.m.
To be discussed are plans for racing to return to the old half-mile oval at BHS, unused since a four-tenths mile track was built at the facility in 2002. Keester said last week that he hopes to begin the 2008 season as early as Friday, May 30.
