Due to the number of divisions that have been run during the hot summer months, the staff at Evergreen Raceway has decided to trim back on the number of divisions.
“Honestly, when we put the schedule together during the winter we were worried more about getting the schedule out quickly and didn’t consider how hot the middle of summer could be for the fans and racers.”, noted speedway promoter, Jason Makarewicz.
He continued, “Our plan is to give a division or two off on a rotating basis. A long day in the heat is rough on everyone and tempers definitely seem to flare more when drivers are out battling for wins in it.”
The division that is now scheduled off this Sunday, July 10 is the Street Stocks. The Pro Stocks and Factory Stocks will be off on Sunday, July 17. The Mid Season Championship for Pro Stocks and Factory Stocks will now take place during their next regularly scheduled event.
The track has added Enduro dates for the first Sunday of August (7th), September (4th) and October (2nd). They will take place instead of the regular shows on those dates. The last Enduro of the season is slated for Saturday, October 29. Pre registration for the August 7th Enduro will be available at the end of this week.
Continuous behind the scenes track improvements have been happening and coming this Sunday, the fans should begin to feel a little cooler, as the track crew has begun covering portions of the grandstands.
The next Evergreen Raceway event is slated for Sunday, July 10 with the Evergreen Modifieds, Late Models, Factory Stocks and Four Cylinders, PLUS Kids Big Wheel Races.
Grandstand admission is just $8. Children 10 years of age and younger are admitted for free with a paying adult. Pit gates will open at 10:30 AM. Practice will kick off at 12:30 PM and the first heat race will roll out at 2:00 PM. The grandstands open at noon.
