Track Improvements

A new on track entrance entering the outside of turn three sits at the end of a new push off lane behind the scoreboard. The entire pit area has been expanded and new material has been rolled in to compact the surface into a larger, flatter more uniform parking area. More lighting and speakers. The fuel tanks, tires and parts trucks have a new area and the concessions have been improved. Truck loads of new racing surface have been added over the winter.

USAC Focus Midgets New This Season

Earning season points and crowning a 2012 season champion will be the USAC Focus Midgets. This new division will expand its race dates in 2013 with more cars and drivers expected to commit to a full season on the 3/10th mile clay oval. Follow the growth of this new class along with us this season at Skagit Speedway.
