The month of June features 7 races across 3 states. Current points leader, Thomas Kennedy, holds a 68 point lead over Ryan Roberts who picked up his 1st feature win of the year 3 weeks ago at I-80 Speedway in Greenwood, Nebraska.
Our June 24th race in Salina, Kansas at Salina Speedway will go on as scheduled. The speedway took a direct hit from a tornado on May 18th. With tons of help from the racing community, the track looks to host races again on June 2nd. It is such a pleasure to see racers and fans come together to get this racing facility back on their feet.
