Plover wants us the two WCS races and more if we can make it. Dells was contacted but did not hear back. Scott Baker addressed the club and John Huss is interested in sponsoring the club for $2000 for the year for both home and away series. ALL trucks would be required to run a Midwest Homes sticker.
