On Friday night the speedway will host Tri Counties Bank point championship racing #6 presented by Enterprise Rent a Car / JP's Paint and Body Works and Fry's Metal. Four racing divisions will be on hand led by the 410 winged sprint cars, mini stocks, dirt modifieds and the Perma Zyme wingless sprint cars.
On Saturday night the speedway will host the traveling King of the West sprint car series. The "Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial" will feature over 30 cars vying for the lion's share of an inflated purse, special awards and a 40-lap main event. The winged economy sprints will also be part of the Saturday night show.
Friday night May 2nd, the pit gate opens at 4 pm. The front grandstand gate is set to open at 6 pm. A special $3.00 off coupon will be presented to the adult fans that buy a Friday night ticket and are planning on going Saturday night. The coupon is to be used towards Saturday night's ticket.

Camping is available for the weekend and is $30 a night that is collected by the fairgrounds. On Saturday the Northern California Auto Racing Alumni will hold their annual racers barbeque at the garden court area inside the fairgrounds. The lunch takes place at noon.
Enterprise Rent a Car and JP's Paint and Body Works will offer numerous give-a-ways to the grandstand crowd on Friday night. This is their third year of sponsoring a race night at the speedway.
Children will be involved on Saturday night because after each heat race the winner will stop on the front stretch and present a young boy or girl with a trophy. This annual tradition at the Bradway is always a big hit.
