Highland Speedway is also excited to announce that Fox 2 St. Louis is coming out for a video shoot and community event on Wednesday, July 12th from 2:30 to 4:30 PM.  Fox 2 will be shooting a segment for the news as well as footage for commercials that’ll be airing through the end of the racing season.  The Grandstands are open for free to the public and the community is encouraged to come out and get involved.  They will take a reporter for a ride in the 2-Seater Modified and they’ll have other race cars on the track as well.  Make a sign, wear a costume, put on your favorite driver’s shirt and head over to World Famous Highland Speedway on July 12th for an afternoon of fun with Fox 2.
