Talking About The Final Season Of Rockford Speedway

I had the pleasure to sit down and talk with Susan and David Deery (owners of Rockford Speedway). We discussed their family, the history of the track, the Rockford community, concerts, the final season, and what will replace that historic corner.

So Many Amazing Memories Of Rockford Speedway

Unfortunately, I didn't grow up in the Rockford area so I didn't get to experience it until I was an adult. I could only imagine going there as a kid. That would've been awesome. Luckily, I go to see it through my daughter's eyes. We always had a good time out there.

My memories of Rockford Speedway are priceless. I even got to race there a few times during media races, enduros, and even in a trailer race which was pretty nerve-racking. I was involved with several concerts that rocked the track. Plus, many other events. I'm thankful for them being opened minded about our crazy radio promotional ideas. They never said "no."

Plan Rockford Speedway Outing This Summer
