Election ’08 Hits Mountain Speedway with a Roller Derby Race

This October, the Democrats and Republicans will battle in a format that’s a bit unorthodox to even the most grizzled of politicians. The two parties will put on their helmets and take on St. Johns, Pennsylvania’s third-mile Mountain Speedway in a race car roller derby on Saturday, October 25 in conjunction with the NELMA Late Model Challenge.

The popular roller derby format is known for its rough and tough nature, just as politics and racing are. Putting the three together is a recipe for one exciting event.

Already there is talk between the two camps. The Republicans are billing themselves as mavericks with a track record that will push them to the checkers. The Democrats, who have been out of the oval office for eight years, are hoping to ride the “Road to Change” to take them to victory lane.

The Election ’08 Roller Derby Race will be part of a day of thrilling auto racing excitement. They will join the Late Models for their 100-lap NELMA Late Model Challenge, the Legends cars for their Fall Classic, and the Pro Truck Memorial. For more information visit www.nelmaracing.com.
