Jerry Brock, who reached an agreement with speedway owners on a one-year lease of the historic half-mile oval on Cumberland Falls Highway, said racing will begin Saturday, weather permitting. While rain isn\u2019t in the forecast, Brock said the temperatures are expected to top out in the mid 50s. \u201cWe would like to have it in the 60s or 70s,\u201d Brock said. If the temperatures don\u2019t cooperate, Brock said the racing may still occur, but be moved to the afternoon. Brock said plans are to run five classes: late models, super street, pure sweet, front wheel drive and minicup. As to how many cars he expects, Brock said he is taking a wait-and-see approach. While 30 cars showed up at each of the practices, Brock said it is not a good basis for race attendance. \u201cA lot of them aren\u2019t ready,\u201d Brock said. \u201cSome of them don\u2019t want to practice.\u201d Brock said if 40 to 45 cars are brought out, it will be a successful opening. As the weather warms, he said he expects the turnout to improve. Admission will be $10 to the grandstands and $30 to the pits. There is no official entry fee. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter whether you have a car or not,\u201d Brock said. \u201cYou pay to get in the pits, you can bring your car and race.\u201d Additional information is available on the Corbin Motor Speedway Facebook page, or by calling Brock at 521-1863."}
