ATTICA, Ohio – Though the racing season is winding down at Attica Raceway Park, the action continues to heat up with plenty of exciting events still on the schedule including the biggest super late model event in the history of “Ohio’s Finest Racing” speed plant.
The traditional Attica Ambush, scheduled for Friday, Sept. 4 on Great Lakes Truck Center, All Pro Aluminum Cylinder Heads, Murphy Tractor, RPM Performance Night will feature the NAPA Auto Parts All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Valvoline Oil vying for $7,000 to win along with the American Late Model Iron-Man Series for the Stephen Wagner Memorial paying $15,049 to the winner ($549 to start the A-main).
