2022 Schedule Update

2022 Schedule Update

ATTENTION FANS, DRIVERS AND OWNERS:
As most already knew, our summer vacation was scheduled to start after the July 23rd races. However, due to the extreme heat that we've had, plus the even hotter forecasts for this week, we're going to start our summer vacation early!
The Factory Stock Special honoring Danny Martinez Jr., aka Police, Firefighter and First Responses Night, will be moved to September 10th.
The new event will feature racing in USRA - United States Racing Association Factory Stocks, Stock Cars and B-Mods. Plus the Front Wheel Drives and DirtTrack Bank Cash Money SuperDirt Series presented by Midwest Sheet Metal late models!
We, at the mighty Tri-State Speedway , care greatly about our fans, drivers and owners. For everyone's safety, this is the right decision, at this time.
The image, and below in comments, shows the remaining race schedule, after the vacation, as we ramp up towards the Spooker and Modster Mash at the end of the season.
Enjoy the time off, rest up, work on (or finish) the cars, stay cool and we'll see everyone on August 27th for the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series !
