Registration starts at 11 a.m. with a mandatory driver&#8217;s meeting taking place at 12:30 p.m.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">There will be two types of racing going on, both oval track racing and back by popular demand is figure-eight track racing.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">&#8220;The figure-eight track is an interesting race,&#8221; Kiwanian George Yuhas said. &#8220;A lot of people have been asking for its return.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">Four and six cylinder cars will be broken up into separate classes based on the size of engine, and there will be a 20-lap feature for each class.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">&#8220;It&#8217;s hometown fun,&#8221; Yuhas said. &#8220;And a great opportunity for any racing enthusiast to give racing a shot.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">Yuhas said that the &#8216;Hayfield 20&#8217; is a great chance for people in the area to get to watch a different kind of racing in the area.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">&#8220;At the fairgrounds people traditionally think of demolition derby and tough trucks,&#8221; Yuhas said. &#8220;But this racing is all on the ground, and it&#8217;s very competitive.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">He said race coordinators enjoy bringing in new opportunities for local enthusiasts.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">And he noted that with the population beginning to grow in the area because of the gas industry, Yuhas believes that a greater demand for ticketed events will come into play.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">&#8220;There was a study done of the county that said there is a big demand for ticketed events,&#8221; Yuhas said. &#8220;And we&#8217;re looking to bring in some of those opportunities.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">The racing done at the fairgrounds&#8217; motorsports arena is being kept at four and six cylinder racing because that way it stays affordable for locals to come race.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">Yuhas said that people coming to the race can easily expect 20 to 25 racers, as that has been the average recently.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">And attendance at motorsports events at the fairgrounds has ranged between 300 and 750 people. Admission price is $9 for adults and $7 for children. Kids under 5 are free.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">A vendor will be on hand with food and drinks for those in attendance.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 6pt 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0in\">There will be trophies and cash prizes for winners in each class.
