Bradley Sterrett is like so many adults who are in the prime of life. His business Economy Termite and Pest Control is thriving, he spends time watching his son play baseball, and he tries to work in a little golf. When he gets a spare moment he utters words aloud that are familiar to so many of us. “I don’t have enough hours in the day,” he says with a hint of resignation, “I get pulled in so many directions.” Sterrett also has a racing habit, and on this account...more

As the Mary M’s Flowers winner’s wreath was placed around his neck after the Larry Rice Classic at Bloomington Speedway the expression on Ryan Tusing’s face belied a feeling of both elation and relief. The 2024 season has not been kind to a former track champion. “Last year was so bad,” he recalled, “I wasn’t even sure I was going to race again. I was so disheartened. Then we began the year at Putnamville, and I flipped right off the bat and then the car shut off for...more

With a history over a century long it comes as little surprise that a wide range of Hall of Fame drivers have visited victory lane at The Historic Bloomington Speedway. This honor roll extends from the 1920s and in decades to come many of the talented people we will witness during the 2025 season will also be widely recognized as among the all-time greats. The late Josh Burton, with a career far too brief will not be found on such lists. Because this is objectively...more

John Mahoney has captured the essence of a man who was and remains so important to us at The Historic Bloomington Speedway. On May 23rd we present the Josh Burton Memorial. This race pays $10,000 to win and attracts big names galore. All of this for a $15 general admission ticket. In order to really make this work we need an overall event sponsor and other supporters. This man was one of our own. We can collectively honor him and work as a community to make this race...more

If you ask Ethan Barrow about his family’s involvement in racing you had best reach for a Snickers bar – you’re going to be there awhile. The tale begins the minute he describes his first moments in the speed game. “I did some motorcross racing from the time I was 5 until I was about 8,” he says “and then I quit because I went with my dad, grandpa, and my uncle every weekend. My dad was racing modifieds, my uncle Sam was racing modifieds, my grandfather Gary Sr. was...more
