Mercer Raceway Park is a 3/8-mile dirt oval located just minutes from both the Interstate 79 and 80 exits just off Route 19 & 62 at 555 Fairground Road in Findley Township, Mercer County, just outside the northeast borough limits of Mercer, Pennsylvania. It is currently owned by Bill Altman and promoted by Kristin Swartzlander. Today, Mercer Raceway Park is one of the region's top dirt tracks running Saturday nights beginning late March and continuing into early October. Regular racing divisions included the 410 Sprints, 358 Modifieds, Outlaw Sprint Warriors, Mod Lites, Stock Cars and Mini Stocks. Touring series that visit the track include the: UFO Late Models, Auto Racers for Kids Charities, All Star Sprint Circuit of Champions, All-American Sprint Nationals Pulling, BRP Modified Tour, and ARDC Sprint Midgets. Mercer Raceway Park will celebrate its 60th Anniversary season in 2011. ==Purchase and Management== Bill Altman is the current owner of the track, having purchased it from longtime owner and promoter Vicki Emig on April 30, 2010. Emig owned and operated the facility from 1999 through the start of 2010. Upon purchasing the track, Altman immediately increased the Sprint Car purse by over $1,000 to support the division. In late 2010, Altman added Kristin Swartzlander to the track management as promoter. Swartzlander has a storied family history in racing, along with professional experience in advertising, public relations, and marketing in both the agency setting as well as in professional sports. At 24, Swartzlander is one of the youngest dirt track promoters in the country, and one of few females to hold the position. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mercer Raceway Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
