BILLINGS, Mont. (June 3, 2024) Readying for a return to the track this weekend, the ASCS Frontier Region will head for Gallatin Speedway in Belgrade, Mont. on Friday, May 7 before a return to Big Sky Speedway in Billings, Mont. on Saturday, June 8.
Presented by Lehrkinds Inc., the first event of the season at Gallatin Speedway will see a familiar winner back in action as Kelly Miller looks to keep the momentum from this past weekend’s win at Casper Speedway going. Taking top honors in the tour’s last two visits to Gallatin, Miller split time in Victory Lane last weekend with fellow ASCS Frontier competitor Trever Kirkland, who looks to end a winless streak at the southwestern Montana oval that goes back to 2017.
Friday, June 7, at Gallatin Speedway, opens at 5:30 P.M. with racing at 7:00 P.M. (MDT). Tickets are $15 for adults, $13 for seniors, and free for kids 12 and under. Gallatin Speedway is located at 2290 Tubb Rd. in Belgrade, Mont. Information on the track is on their Facebook page, or by calling (406) 388-9666. Along with the ASCS Frontier Region, Friday’s bill includes IMCA Modifieds, WISSOTA Super Stocks, and Street Stocks.
