Allis, Wis., Feb. 20, 2009 -- While there are all kinds of critters in
the forest at The Deckertring, one of the little rascals has actually
made it out onto the race track itself -- "Ringo" the Raccoon, the
official Deckertring track mascot.
Ringo will be entertaining children of all ages when the HO Indy Slot
Car Series visits The 'Ring for the third annual running of the
Deckertring Grand Prix on Thursday, March 5.
When Ringo is not roaming the race track grounds on foot entertaining
fans, he jumps into his Hemi-powered buggy and hot laps out on the full
race circuit!
"Ringo is a terrific addition to The Deckertring staff," said
Deckertring Media Director Jenna Jameson. "We think our guests will
really enjoy his crazy antics."
The Deckertring is believed to be the first HOISC Series track to have a permanent track mascot.
HOISC Series race commentator "Little" Chris Economaki said he was looking forward to meeting The 'Ring's new mascot as well.
"Raccoons are cool," Economaki stated. "I hit one with my car once
though, so I hope Ringo doesn't run me over in an act of revenge.
That'd be scary."
