6th Annual Carpenter Memorial & Back to School Night Results & Recap
The 2024 racing season continued on Saturday night at the Jamestown Speedway with a very special event. The Jamestown Speedway hosted the 6th Annual Jeff Carpenter Memorial Race and REBEL MW Mod Tour Race for the Wissota Midwest Modifieds and it was also Back to School Night at the Speedway. There were a total of 27 Wissota Midwest Modifieds in attendance and we have to thank Tony Smith, Randy Klein, Scott Bintz, the Carpenter Family, friends, supporters, devoted sponsors, and more for helping to host the Carpenter Memorial on Saturday and raise over $13,000 for the purse! The racing action was hot and heavy throughout the night. We have to thank the University of Jamestown Jimmie's Football Team and Booster Club for sponsoring on Saturday and providing 25 backpacks to our junior fans for back to school this week.
The weather was beautiful on Saturday and the track was very fast and quite racy throughout the night. There were multiple side-by-side battles and drivers could run all over the track. We had a total of 115 cars in the pits! We have to thank all of the drivers, fans, and track workers that came out to enjoy the action on Saturday night and honor Jeff Carpenter.
