TULSA, Okla. (December 29, 2015) The ASCS Southwest Region has released its 2016 lineup with 20 nights dotting the first draft in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas.
Taking advantage of the Arizona sun, the season will kick off on February 27, 2016 at the Central Arizona Speedway in Casa Grande, Ariz. March 12 at the Canyon Speedway Park will be followed by the Arizona Speedway on March 19.
Taking the show on the road to New Mexico, the Southern New Mexico Speedway in Las Cruces, N.M. will replace its normal Pre-Season Scramble with a two night showdown on April 1 and 2 with the series returning to Peoria, Arizona’s Canyon Speedway Park on April 16 then back to Central Arizona Speedway on April 23.
Arizona Speedway on May 14, the series returns to action on June 4 at the Arizona Speedway and Canyon Speedway Park on June 18. A three state swing in July, the Arizona Speedway takes July 9 with the El Paso Speedway Park in El Paso, Texas on July 29 then the Southern New Mexico Speedway in Las Cruces, N.M. on July 30.
Taking the month of August off due to the extreme heat that cripples the Arizona desert, action resumes in September at the Arizona Speedway on September 14 and 24. Teaming with the Lucas Oil ASCS presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network on September 30, both series will make their debut at the Fairgrounds Speedway in Cortez, Colo. with the second annual Joe Herrera Memorial at the Aztec Speedway in Aztec, N.M. on October 1. Three more events on the season, the Arizona Speedway takes the remainder with events on November 8, followed by a double header on November 25 and 26 to end out the 2016 lineup.
Dates from the USA Raceway in Tucson, Ariz. are still pending.
