Thunderhill Raceway took on a huge improvement project this winter, building new grandstands, a new catchfence, leveling the pit area, and several more enhancements. Unfortunately, dismal weather conditions impeded the track from being ready to host this weekend’s World of Outlaws CASE Construction Equipment Late Model Series Summertown Showdown, leading officials to postpone the event to Thursday, April 18.
The new date creates an epic three-day race weekend with the World of Outlaws visiting Thunderhill on April 18 for a $10,000-to-win event, and then making the trek south for the Alabama Gang 100 at the Talladega Short Track, April 19-20 – paying $35,000 to Saturday’s winner.
“We are looking forward to seeing Thunderhill Raceway when it’s fully ready for a national event next month,” World of Outlaws CASE Late Model Series Director Steve Francis said. “With everything they’ve been working on to improve the track this winter, Thunderhill will be a great a facility for a World of Outlaws event when we race there in April.”

The World of Outlaws CASE Construction Equipment Late Models now direct their attention to the Illini 100 at Farmer City Raceway, April 12-13, featuring a $20,000-to-win finale – ran in conjunction with the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota.
