As part of the track’s banquet, the schedule for the 2018 racing season was distributed to attendees, before being posted online. As anticipated, it will be a jam-packed year with lots of action taking place every single week this year.
It seems with each season, tracks and series continue to step up their game in trying to market to fans and attract racers to their speedways. 2018 is no exception to the rule, given the amount of big events already announced.
Regardless, the schedules and events have been coming out quicker than ever, and it begs the question – where will we find you this summer, and what event are you looking forward the most? Feel free to offer your answers in the comments, but I will give you five events to think about.
All eyes will be on Flamboro Speedway on June 10 when they host their first ever “STOCK” Car Nationals, featuring the pure stocks, mini stocks and super stocks. Particularly, the Mini Stocks have garnered a lot of attention, thanks to the efforts by Rich Schwartzenburg to garner event, award, and lap sponsors to bring the purse to over $6800.
After experiencing success in Mini Stocks over the past couple of years, Jake Watson is getting the opportunity to move up a division in 2018 to Super Stock.
With consistency each week, including coming very close to a victory on a couple occasions, Rich Schwartzenburg put together an impressive year at Flamboro Speedway en route to placing fourth in the year-end standings.
When Flamboro Speedway announced the idea of doing their “STOCK” Car Nationals, it caught the attention of everybody in Ontario’s province. Though thanks to Rich Schwartzenburg, it’s taken a whole new meaning.
There’s going to be lots of money given out over the course of 2018 if the early signs are any indication, and it’s nice to see all divisions getting in the action. The Mini Stocks will get their opportunity for a big pay day, courtesy of a new initiative at Flamboro Speedway.
