Challenge of Champions · Red Cedar Speedway

46th Annual Punky Manor Challenge of Champions

The Museum preserves the Punky Manor Challenge of Champions as one multi-division Red Cedar Speedway tradition. The archive begins with the 1980 event and links every documented championship division by year, including the Late Models, Modifieds, Super Stocks, Midwest Modifieds and the support classes that appeared during different eras.

Archive Standard
Championship features only — with the field preserved as deeply as the source allows.

The winner chronology is retained even when a complete finishing order has not survived. Modern MyRacePass fields are preserved in full, while older newspaper, Dirt Race Central, Red Cedar Speedway and other verified source records remain partial where that is all the historical evidence supports.
