Battle of the Bluegrass Series moves
2009 Banquet to Friday February 19th

2010)—Officials with the Battle of the Bluegrass DirtCar Series have
announced a change of date for the 2009 Awards Banquet. The Banquet
will now be held on Friday Night February 19, 2010 instead of the
first announced date of January 30th.

Conference Center in Lexington , Kentucky . The Banquet has been
changed to accommodate all those traveling to Florida during in and
around that week. Some of the drivers and promoters of the BoB Series
