It's a sizzling summer Saturday, and Headwaters Speedway is suddenly the place to be. Thanks to rainouts across the state, this small-town dirt track is drawing big-time stock cars and local drivers. First up: Trace Bonham in his Street Stock Chevy that's sure to be a winner, if only he can figure out why it's acting up. Next is Beau Kim: his Modified is patched together from whatever parts he could scrape up. And on the outside, moving in fast: Amber Jenkins, a strawberry blonde who has what it takes to run rings around them all. Keeping everyone on track is Melody Walters: she knows that the impending rain might be exactly what they need to keep her father's speedway afloat--or sink it for good.

Saturday Night Dirt is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

Will Weaver grew up in northern Minnesota on a dairy farm. His character Billy Baggs earned his way into the hearts of teen readers in three award-winning books. Another book, Full Service won starred reviews. Weaver also writes the MOTOR series about dirt track stock car racing, one of the few sports that gives no gender advantage, and he includes positive and realistic portrayals of young women involved in the sport. Weaver has formed a stock car racing team with a teenaged driver. His black No. 16 Modified race car, co-sponsored by Farrar, Straus & Giroux publishers, is driven by Skyler Smith of Bemidji.
