2012 Schedule
Attention !! McHenry County Fair is no longer a DhR show.
Darkhorse Racing thanks all the McHenry County Fair drivers and the McHenry County Fair Association for 4 great years. Darkhorse Racing wishes the McHenry County Fair Association a successful 2012 season. The fair chose to go a different direction this year. This means that the classes you are familiar with, the format of the show that you are familiar with, and most importantly the rules that you are familiar with will be different. We will continue to host derbies at Lake and Kenosha county fairs along with our season finale at Rockford Speedway. Please check the schedule below for show dates, classes, and time line of events. As always, pre-registration earns double points. Thank you all for your continued loyalty.
