There will be plenty to offer for the fans in attendance at this weekend’s ASA STARS National Tour Father’s Day 100 at the Milwaukee Mile. Five divisions will be on hand at the historic facility for a big day of racing on Sunday, June 18, but that won’t be the only thing fans will have to look forward to on race day.
The midway will be stocked with things to do for the whole family, from merchandise booths, to NASCAR simulators and an RC car track provided by our friends with the Chicago Street Course. In addition, food vendors from the Milwaukee area will be on hand throughout the race weekend.
The first 500 kids admitted into the racetrack will receive a free checkered flag. There will also be an ASA STARS National Tour autograph session following qualifying in the grandstands. Qualifying is currently slated to start at 11:00am, with the autograph session tentatively set for 12:15.
The infield will also be opened up for camping starting Friday, June 16 and going throughout the weekend. Camping will be $50 for one night and $75 for two nights plus an infield or grandstand ticket. All camping spots are primitive. Camping passes can be purchased by calling the Track Enterprises office at (217)-764-3200.
The Father’s Day 100 is a co-sanctioned event between the ASA STARS National Tour and the ASA Midwest Tour, marking the return of ASA to the Mile for the first time since August 2004. The tour will be joined by the Midwest Truck Series, Mid-American Racing Series, Vores Compact Touring Series, and the Upper Midwest Vintage Series.

About The Milwaukee Mile
The Milwaukee Mile is a paved, one-mile oval race track, located at Wisconsin State Fair Park with grandstand and bleacher seating for approximately 35,000 spectators. The Milwaukee Mile is the oldest continuously operating speedway in the world, hosting at least one auto race every year since 1903 (except during U.S. involvement in World War II). It operated as a dirt track until it was paved in 1954.
In addition to the asphalt-paved oval, there is a .8-mile asphalt-paved road circuit located in the infield. From 1934 until 1953, the infield was the Milwaukee home of the NFL’s Green Bay Packers.
