Monday, December 31, 2007 (Loves Park, IL) – The 2008 Illinois Racer’s Auction is coming up in a few days and the list of C-Lot items continues to grow for this two-day event. Not only will there be items for the racers, but there could be some items for the fans as well.

Auction officials are announcing that one of the items to go up for bid will be the COT nose from David Stremme’s Ganassi Dodge that competed at the Talladega Fall race. “This is one of those items that a race fan could put on the wall of their favorite racing room or for a racing themed bar,” Auction manager Gregg McKarns stated. “It will be interesting to see who will be bidding on this.”

Other C-Lot items include: multiple Lefthander Chassis’, a bandolero, dirt modified, two American Short Trackers, and multiple haulers (open and enclosed). More items continue to come in for this weekend’s event.
