“Truckers are what keeps this world moving.Moving freight from state to state with black smoke a rollin. Having a night to show appreciation to all the Truckers across the USA with a FREE night of entertainment & tie it in with a memory of my Dad is really something special, stated Springfield Raceway Springfield Raceway owner Jerry Hoffman.”
My Grandpa & Dad were both Independent Owner Operators pulling Hopper Bottoms buying & selling grain across the country their entire life.” Grandpa had gas straight trucks years ago & his first diesel truck was a Red 1956 Diamond T. Grandpa bought that truck off of Gene Fleming Diamond T in Salina Kansas . Grandpa headed back to Gene Fleming in 1966 buying a new in 1966 Diamond T. The 66 was the first model with a fiberglass hood . Dad drove the 66 for about a year & then bought er from my Grandpa…
My Dads first Truck cost em around $24,000 a new 1974 Peterbilt bought at Sioux City Peterbilt in Sioux City Iowa.

My Grandpa & Dad probably had 20 or so different trucks through tha years & they weren't always new but I’ll tell ya one thing they both took very good care of their equipment keeping it clean & very well maintained.
Dad always told me “ You don’t always need new equipment, this old stuff he had just needed worked on a little more but it’ll still get the job done.”

Dad never got rid of his pride & joy.
He had stripped his ol 1952 Kenworth down to tha frame & was putting it back together & almost had er all done before he passed May 30 , 2022….

This Saturday May 16 ALL classes will have some added money in memory of the Springfield Raceway owner Jerry Hoffman’s Dad, Larry Hoffman who recently passed away May 30, 2022
Dad Loved Trucks & Dad Loved Racing.

Thanks goes out to Bryan Martin of Four State Trucks & Roger Bartlett General Manager of the
TLG-Peterbilt of Joplin.
Bryan Martin said “ He can’t count the times Larry was in the store looking around & the world really lost a true ol skool trucker.”
Roger Bartlett a ol skool Peterbilt Store Manger said “ The world lost a good man & I will forever remember Larry & he will always have a special place in my heart.
