Sponsorship on the #29 will come from Billy's Cafes, Keyser's Port City Racing, Integra Shocks & Springs, and BG Lubricants. More information concerning the 2012 season will be posted as news warrants...

SEPTEMBER 26, 2011
After spending the past two months away from the racetrack, Bill Koons and his #29 team returned to Dirt Late Model competition over the September 23-24 weekend at the I-80 Speedway in Greenwood, Nebraska. The annual running of the 'Cornhusker Classic' was held over the weekend and a stout field of competitors were on hand for the Lucas Oil MLRA and DART Corn Belt Clash co-sanctioned races. On Friday night, Bill ran fifth in his heat race and ninth in his B-Main, which unfortunately kept him out of the $2,000 to win feature event. In Saturday's finale, Bill finished fourth in his heat race, fifth in his B-Main, and twentieth in the $3,000 to win, 35-lap main event. Full results from the two-day 'Cornhusker Classic' can be viewed online at www.mlraracing.com.
