Gallatin Speedway promoter’s daughter Ali Weisz shooting for Olympic gold

BELGRADE, Mont. – Ali Weisz was 17 years old when she told interviewers her goal was to compete at the Olympics. The daughter of Gallatin Speedway promoter Dave Weisz will do just that this week as a member of the U.S. Shooting Team. She’ll go for the gold in 10 meter women’s air rifle competition, the first event following the opening ceremony on Friday. “She was in elementary when she brought home a flyer about a BB gun safety program one day and decided it was something she wanted to do,” Weisz said. “Ali started with a BB gun in the basement of a gun shop and did that two nights a week.” It was quickly obvious that Ali was a natural and she began competitive shooting and setting records across Montana. A three-time qualifier for the national BB gun championships, she fast-forwarded to precision air rifle and earned an athletic scholarship to Ole Miss, where she was a four-time NCAA qualifier. The two-time All-American has since traveled across the globe, winning gold at the [Read More]

There was an increased purse in all classes thanks to donations from drivers and sponsors, with many [Read More]

HARLAN, Iowa (July 13) – He only led one lap, but it was the most important one. Jacob Hobscheidt caught Chaz Baca for the front spot on the 20th and final circuit Tuesday night, then took the checkers a quarter of a second ahead of the Arizona visitor to win the IMCA Modified feature at Shelby County Speedway’s Dale Swanson Memorial.
