Point Race #2 Set for This Saturday

Marysville, CA (March 26, 2017) – A big night of racing is scheduled for this Saturday night, April 1st, and that is no joke. Marysville Raceway will host point race #2 featuring five predominant divisions led by the IMCA Sport Mods, winged 360 sprints, economy sprints, hobby stocks and the popular Dwarf Cars.

Just two weeks prior, the raceway hosted a successful point night number one. The car count swelled above 50 and the final checkered flag of the night waved before 10 PM. A point of emphasis this year at the raceway is to get the nights racing action over at a decent hour for the families in attendance.
