(Perris, CA, September 17, 2024) In addition to the usual dirt track excitement generated by the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars, GAS Chassis Young Gun Sprint, PAS Senior Sprints, and the PASSCAR Super Stocks and American Factory Stocks this coming Saturday night at Perris Auto Speedway, something else will be going on. The famous 29-year-old half-mile clay oval will host a sports equipment drive to supply children with sports gear.

Miss Arizona United States Shelby Waldron is hosting the drive. She approached track official Chris Holt regarding the sports equipment program.
“Chris Holt contacted me and told me what Shelby wanted to do,” Perris promoter Don Kazarian said. “We think it is a wonderful idea. With the price of sports equipment these days, many families cannot afford to equip their children to participate. Hopefully, this will get a lot of kids who otherwise could not participate on the field or the courts. We are more than happy to help out.”
Kazarian stated that there will be areas in the grandstands for fans to leave the equipment they bring to the track. In addition, there will be a collection area in the pits for drivers and crew members to donate.
“I am hosting a sports equipment drive at Perris Auto Speedway on Saturday, September 21st,” Waldron said in a promo video released for the event. “My goal is to help local kids get involved in sports by helping them gain access to sports equipment. What I am asking is for you to go through your garages. Any usable sports equipment you have lying around – helmets, cleats, gloves – bring it down to the track on Saturday, September 21st. Pit gates will open at 3:00 p.m., main gates open at 5:00 p.m. Can’t wait to see you all there for a great night of racing.”
Adult tickets for the next battle in the season-long USAC/CRA war are $30.00. For seniors 65 and over, it is $25.00. Kids ages 6 to 12 get in for only $5.00, and children five and under are admitted free. The fairgrounds charge $10 for parking. Spectator gates will open at 5:00 p.m. and the first race of the night will get the green flag at 7:00.
