Bakersfield - Kern County Fairgrounds (KCRP)
After another successful practice session yesterday at Kern County Raceway in Bakersfield, Track manager Larry Collins and myself I have decided that pending final track improvements we want to go racing in the next month!
We want to get to work right away on building the speedway crash wall and adding in DG to the track surface. If that can be completed within the next 10 days we will do a final test session on 7 February.
The first race will feature a two hour speedway program late afternoon followed immediately by a flat track race event in the evening.
Places on both programs will be limited for the first event and will be signed up as prepay online. We will Have the sign-up link live in the next 7 to 10 days.
In the event we do not have the necessary improvements done in time we will instead run a practice session on February 20 and the start date for racing will be March 20.
