Harvest 50 Blurb
Final Prep
By Scott Wolfe
STEWART, OHIO- For the first time in track history Skyline Speedway's Harvest will be a two-day affair with a possible $11,000 going to the winner should the same driver win both days of the Late Model spectacular. "Yes, two complete shows on two different days", said Skyline owner Billy Jarrell. "You can race one day or both days; it doesn't matter. But if you win both days, you take home $11,000."
This year's event will be the Silver Anniversary, 25th annual Harvest 50.
Many of the previous Harvest 50 winners will be in the line-up. Defending champion Showtime Steve Shaver leads the list with six Harvest wins.
