BELLEVILLE, IL – Aug. 24, 2012 – The World of Outlaws Late Model Series has added a date on Fri., Sept. 14, at Belle-Clair Speedway, setting up a big weekend doubleheader for fans in the St. Louis area.
A $10,000 top prize from the richest purse in Belle-Clair’s history will be on the line in the inaugural ‘Photobilly 50,’ a race that will be run in honor of late photographer Charles Haffer Jr. A well-known figure in St. Louis racing circles, Haffer – aka ‘Photobilly’ – lost his life on Aug. 7 at the age of 44 in a tragic Iowa highway accident while traveling to a race.
