For Immediate Release
2019 BAKERSFIELD SPEEDWAY EVENT SCHEDULE RELEASED!
(Bakersfield, CA. December 31, 2018) The Bakersfield Speedway is proud to announce their 2019 event schedule. The historic Bakersfield Speedway is a one third mile high banked clay oval that has been home to auto racing in Bakersfield, CA since May of 1946.
As Bakersfield’s premier offering for professional dirt track auto racing waves the green flag for its 2019 season giving the Bakersfield Speedway the recognition of being one of the oldest continuous operating racing facilities on the West Coast. A total of 29 exciting events will form the 2019 schedule that will stretch from early March into November. Throughout the season, 20 different racing divisions will compete on the always eventful bullring speedway that will pride itself on promoting affordable, quality, family entertainment every Saturday night.
The 2019 racing season will begin on Saturday, March 2nd as the Budweiser Championship Series will open its season campaign at Bakersfield Speedway. This championship series is comprised of the nine house divisions that will compete in approximately thirteen events each at the historic California dirt track this season.
Eleven different guest divisions are slated to appear throughout the season. Topping the list of special guests will be the Amsoil USAC/CRA 410 Sprint Car Series that will make a stop Saturday May 11th. The very popular sprint car series was last seen at the Bakersfield Speedway in 2017. The USAC Western States Midgets and National Midgets will make multiple appearances this season along with the USAC 360 Non-Wing Sprints. WRS Winged Sprints, CA Lightning Sprints, NMRA ¾ Midgets, Western Pro Stocks and the popular Bakersfield Hard Tops will all again be competing multiple times around the 1/3 Mile High Banked Clay Oval in 2019.
“Our goal again in 2019 is to provide a racing schedule that will give our fans a wide range of high quality racing entertainment at the Bakersfield Speedway, and we are confident we reached that goal with our 2019 event schedule. We feel that in 2019 we need to make every Saturday night family fun entertainment to go along with the great racing we have always provided” stated owner Scott Schweitzer.
