The holiday weekend will see TWO – T.P. Trailer Modified features on Saturday, and the only appearance of the season for the Kubota High Limit Racing 410 Sprint Cars on Tuesday, May 28.
The race program for last Saturday was May 18 was to include double features for the T.P. Trailer NASCAR Modifieds, one being a postponed event from May 11, and the T.P.

The race program on Saturday, May 25 will be featuring the T.P. Trailer NASCAR Modifieds and T.P.

Trailer Modified feature held-over from May 11 will be added to this show along with the first visit of the year for the Outlaw Racing Series Vintage cars.
The held-over T.P. Trailer Modified feature will be the first Modified event during the program, so fans need to arrive early so as not to miss any of the double-feature race action.

The drivers scheduled to participate include Modified driver and defending Track Champion Brett Kressley, along with Sportsman drivers TJ Mayberry and Zane Roth.
The pre-race Meet and Greet is held in the main gate area from 4-5 pm and is a great time for fans to meet the drivers up close, collect some autographs, take photos, and talk racing with their favorite drivers before the night’s program gets underway.
The T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman feature which was rained out on May 11th will be added to the Saturday, June 1 race event in addition to a completely new two-division program of T.P.
