Story and photos by Terry Young
Temperatures were hot in Central Illinois over the weekend... but not nearly as hot as they soared when MidwestRacin.com hostess Racin' Rachel rolled into the Land of Lincoln for a visit to the 2009 edition of the 4 Wheel Drive Jamboree at the Illinois State Fairgrounds.
The highlight of the event is always the fan favorite bikini contest which is held on the last day of the event. Eight contestants, all award winners in their own right entered the competition; but it was our very own Racin' Rachel who was the crowd favorite as well as the favorite of the judges. Due in large part to her natural beauty and flawless complexion, Rachel was crowned the Queen of the 2009 4 Wheel Jamboree!

Forward: For two years new standards were set in racing coverage by www.illinoismotorsports.com. This same extreme photographic coverage is back with a new format, look, and name. Yes, www.midwestracin.com is here! This new online publication by Ted Connolly and 62644.com, Inc. is actually a re-birth of Illinois Motorsports. You will find the new version a vast improvement in many ways while retaining those things you loved. Our coverage of the grass roots of motorsports in the Midwest will be in the same style as before with the emphasis being on taking you to the places you can't go: to the garages, to the pits, and to the hearts of those who love this sport of racing in all it's forms. It is not so much about the big names of racing, it is about your neighbor down the street who works hard to have his ride ready for the first heat race.
So we will be seeing you back at the tracks around the Midwest and I can tell you that it will feel great to be back again. I love covering racing so when you least expect it you will find a camera lens pointed your way sooner or later. To all of you I sincerely wish you a successful and safe season of great competition. Ted.
