London, ON — Rob Sparling, Jr. will be the special guest during Tuesday’s (Jan. 17) edition of Race Day at The Western Fair District in London.

Sparling, who has been one of the top drivers at the London oval in recent years, is off to a fast start in 2012 and leads the current driver standings with nine wins and 22 on-the-board finishes from 60 starts.

He has come back strong after suffering a serious ankle injury during a mishap last April that sidelined fellow driver Dave Wall.

Sparling will have drives in six of the 12 races on Tuesday’s program, which is slated to get underway at 4:05 p.m. The Race Day show will air at 3:35 p.m.

Tuesday’s program features a C$4,000 guaranteed pool in the Pick-4. Race programs and live streaming video are available for free at www.westernfairdistrict.com.
