The on track excitement at Five Mile Point Speedway has been second to none. The competition in all of the weekly divisions has been outstanding with no one driver dominating the action in the majority of the classes. The Modified division has seen 7 different feature winners in 7 races this season. Remarkably, current Modified point leader Tyler Siri has yet to record a feature win despite leading the standings. The Modified division is wide open as virtually anyone can win on any given Saturday. Last season there were 13 different winners in 14 races.
The only division that has seen dominance this year is the Slingshot class. Two-time Slingshot Track Champion Dalton Maynard has won six features in a row and has been the class of the field week in and week out. Maynard is looking to lock up his third consecutive track championship this year.
Be a part of the 67 year tradition of great stock racing at Five Mile Point Speedway. This Saturday pit gates open at 3 p.m. with grandstand gates opening at 4 p.m. Practice begins at 5 p.m. with racing set for 6 p.m.
