Punch cards can be filled to get free admission to pits, grandstands
DONNELLSON, IA (Jan. 18, 2012) – The new ownership at Lee County Speedway continues to look for ways to give back to drivers, crews and fans as it works toward the 2012 racing season.

The latest program will give fans and crew members the opportunity to get free passes for their loyalty to the speedway.

Each fan that comes to the grandstands at Lee County Speedway will have the opportunity to purchase a $1 punch card. Each time, including the night of purchase, the card will be punched. After nine punches the 10^th night is free. If that next week is a special event, the value of the card is $9, but if it is a regular race night it means free entry into the grandstands.

All drivers have opportunity to take advantage of new agreement
DONNELLSON, IA (Jan. 16, 2011) – The 2012 season will see Lee County Speedway and 34 Raceway work together to provide drivers, fans and crews the best racing possible in southeast Iowa and the first step of that effort comes with an agreement to offer incentives to each track’s weekly drivers.

Each track will offer its own bonus to drivers! If a driver competes in six straight races for their respective class they will get a free pit pass for them to use the seventh week. That pass will only be good for the seventh consecutive week. If at any point the string of weeks is broken or the pass is not used, the count will start over and the driver will need six straight weeks to earn the bonus.

As a pair, LCS and 34 Raceway have offered another bonus for drivers who compete at both tracks on a weekly basis. For those drivers, if they compete at four consecutive class events at each track they will receive a free pass from each track for the next scheduled event.
