JIMBO CHADWICK NAMED ORLANDO SPEEDWORLD GM - RACING RESUMES AUGUST 24th
It was announced today that Jimbo Chadwick of New Smyrna Beach, FL has been named to fill the vacant General Manager position at Orlando SpeedWorld.
Chadwick has a long background in racing, starting as a driver at South Florida tracks, then by operating Chadwick Race Cars, Inc. in Pompano Beach from 1986 through 1997. After moving to North Carolina, Chadwick ran a marketing and promotions company called Showtime, Inc., building show cars and promotional items for such NASCAR Sprint Cup teams as Hendrick Motorsports, Roush Racing and Penske Racing. Now, after returning recently to Florida, Chadwick will take on the job of actually running a race track for the first time but says he is up to the challenge.
Plans are to run an open practice on Friday evening, August 23, with the first scheduled racing event to take place the following night, Saturday, August 24. Classes to be in action that night will be made known early next week so teams will have ample time to prepare.
