USAC’s preliminary 2015 National racing schedules were distributed at the annual Performance Racing Industry trade show in Indianapolis, Ind. and continue to be formulated for what promises to be a spectacular 60th season of USAC competiton.
The Silver Crown, AMSOIL National Sprint Car and Honda National Midget schedules are projected to include more than 75 total events in 15 states, beginning with six “Winter Dirt Games” Sprint races in Florida. USAC’s 2015 National calendar will conclude with the November 26 “Turkey Night Grand Prix” Midget race at Perris, Calif.
The Honda USAC National Midget slate is currently being finalized and will be released soon.
New on the Silver Crown calendar is the May 1 opener at Toledo (Ohio) Speedway and the June 20 appearance at Iowa Speedway in Newton.
Sprint car changes involve new venues at Gibsonton, Fla., Kansas City, Kans., New Richmond, Wisc. and Tucson, Ariz. East Bay Raceway Park in Gibsonton hosts rounds 4-5-6 of the “Winter Dirt Games VI” which debuts at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla. Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City follows a pair of events in Nebraska. Cedar Lake Speedway in Wisconsin is part of a three-race swing in the Badger State. USA Raceway in Tucson closes out the Sprint car campaign with three nights of “Western World Championships” action.
Defending National series champions are Kody Swanson (Silver Crown), Brady Bacon (AMSOIL Sprint) and Rico Abreu (Honda National Midget).
