Shakespeare County Raceway is pleased to announce that the American Star Spangled banner is set to roll out one more time for the Warwickshire drag strips fourth annual Yanks Weekend during the course of a monster three day Bank Holiday weekend

Classic and late model street and strip Ford’s, Dodge’s, Pontiac’s and Chevrolet’s star in a celebration of all things US automobile at Shakespeare County’s historic quarter mile!

As always the National Association of Street Clubs will get top billing at the show both promoting and hosting the legendary Gary’s Picnic; a drag racing institution for 32 years. Last year Shakespeare County supporter Paul Evans took on Surrey Muscle’s Roger Luty and beat him to the title when his wheel standing 406ci Poncho power GM Viva Estate put away Luty’s trusty old yellow Olds 442 in one of the closest shootout finals in memory. Now its 2010. So who will be lifting this year’s crown at the Picnic?
