City Of Belleville Getting 'Hooked Up' For Belleville 100

BELLEVILLE, Kan. (Feb. 3) - As intrigue grows for the running of the
Belleville 100 this July, so does the interest from the RV community.

The Hi-Banks RV Park is reporting that their location, situated directly
across from the world famous Belleville High Banks race track, is nearly
filled with reservations for the July 2-4 drama-filled racing event.

Recreational vehicle travelers to Belleville need not be dismayed. The
Belleville 100 team has arranged with the City of Belleville to have an
additional 40 electrical hook-ups available on a first-come, first-served
basis.

These additional electrical hook-ups have 30- and 50-Amp options, and will
be available at the power plant park located just one block west of the
hallowed race track grounds. The hook-up fee at "Power Plant Park" is just
$15 per day. There is access to water hydrants in this area, however, sewer
hook-ups are not.

A dump station is located at another popular Belleville camping area known
as Rocky Pond, which has eight full hook-up RV stalls and is owned by the
City of Belleville. Rocky Pond offers tent camping and non-hook-up camping
throughout the park, plus fishing and boating for small vessels. The RV
electrical hook-up sites at Rocky Pond are also on a first-come,
first-served basis.

Restroom and shower facilities are available at both locations. New showers
and restrooms will be constructed in the city park prior to the Belleville
100, according to city officials.

Should RV owners have further questions concerning city-owned RV hook-ups,
they may direct inquiries to 785-527-2288. For information concerning other
lodging options, click the 'Lodging' button at the Official Website of the
Belleville 100 at www.belleville100.com.

The Belleville High Banks is perhaps the most demanding dirt track in the
country in terms of expecting the most of driver and equipment. Certainly it
is the fastest half-mile dirt track in the country and most certainly can
boast its number one ranking in historical longevity.

While many aspects of the automobile and auto racing have changed since
Belleville's first auto race held in 1910, two things really haven't
changed: the test of the machine and the endurance of the driver.

In July 2010, machine and driver will be tested in a contest never before
witnessed at the "World's Fastest Half-Mile Dirt Track" or the Great Plains
States. The celebration of 100 years of auto racing in Belleville and the
advancement of the motor car will take place at the Belleville 100 featuring
Modifieds on the Belleville High Banks, July 2-4, 2010.
