2026 Rice Lake Speedway Hall of Fame Inductees Announced
By Ed Reichert
Rice Lake WI – The Rice Lake Speedway Hall of Fame Committee met recently to vote on the 2026 inductees to the Rice Lake Speedway Hall of Fame. New inductees were voted in for both the drivers category and the Friends of the Speedway category. The Committee also established a new award and voted in the first recipiants of that award.
Newly elected members in the drivers category were Mike Anderson(Dallas WI), Steve Laursen and Bob Ellis. Named to the Friends of the Speedway was Mitch Hansen.
The new category, tentatively called the “Rice Lake Speedway Hall of Fame Committee Appreciation Award,” is designed for those individuals and groups that do not necessarily fit under the other two categories but who have brought a significance presence to the strength and growth of the track.
Named as winners of this new award were Brad Kuchera, Mike Kuchera and Craig Anderson, collectively known at the speedway as the “Wild Hawgs.”
On August 15th these seven gentlemen will be formerly inducted into the speedway Hall of Fame during a ceremony at the track, along with a reception for them with all current Hall of Fame members invited to return that night.
