For the past 28 years, the Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, IA has played host to one of the most anticipated events of the year; the Sage Fruit Front Row Challenge pres. by Your Life Iowa. Off and running again in 2024, the 29th installment of the event will go down on August 5th and if you attended last year’s event TODAY is the last day to renew your reserved seats.
“We are extremely proud of the team of partners that have continued to support this event, and continually help us see our vision through,” Front Row Challenge Promotors Lori and Terry McCarl said. “With their continued support we have truly been able to turn this into a can’t miss event before the Knoxville Nationals as last year we paid out over $80,000 in cash and prizes.”
Continuing to pack the main grandstands with reserved seating year after year, the Sage Fruit Front Row Challenge pres. by Your Life Iowa gives previous year attendees the option to renew their seats and that deadline is here as TODAY is the final day for ticket renewals. To renew your tickets, call the office at 515-957-0020.
For those who were unable to attend last year’s event but are eager to attend the 29th running this August, Reserved Seating will be available to the public on Tuesday April 16th, and you too can snag yours by giving the office a call at 515-957-0020.

From the singing of the National Anthem to the waiving of the checkered flag, The Sage Fruit Front Row Challenge pres. by Your Life Iowa continues to pride itself on continually giving back to the fans as well as the competitors. From kid’s toys to 2000 hats, shirts and koozies, the team will continue to make the night memorable for fans of all ages. The Sage Fruit Front Row Challenge team also was able to obtain 50 Pizzas from Casey’s General Store to provide to each team that singed in at the pit gate.
The 2023 running of the race saw Australian standout, James McFadden race his Roth Motorsports entry to the win as he took home over $25,000 in cash and prizes.
Heat race wins were also lucrative as over $2000 was paid out in cash and prizes thanks in part to the good people at SmithTI, Ultra Shield, HRP, Elite Wings, SkinFusionFX, and Dingus Lounge.
