US 36 Raceway Announces May 8 as Opening Night for 2020 Season
OSBORN, Mo. – After today’s announcement for the reopening of Missouri, US 36 Raceway officials have announced Friday, May 8, as opening night for the 2020 season.
In addition, US 36 Raceway officials also announce there will be an open practice session on Saturday, May 2. Practice will run from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Pit gates open at 1 p.m. Pit passes are $25 per person and the grandstands remain closed to spectators at this time. US 36 will also continue to maintain social distancing guidelines and in doing so will be parking cars at least 20 feet apart. We also ask each team stays within their respective pit area.
Opening night, on May 8, will feature the IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Sprint Cars, IMCA Stock Cars, IMCA Sport Mods, E-Modifieds and Pure Stocks. US 36 Raceway is ready to get back to racing, however, in a safe manner. There will be some social distancing requirements while at the track, for both spectators and competitors, that will be released at a later date in order to return to racing.
In addition to these announcements, US 36 Raceway officials also announce that Jacob Blair will step into the position of Director of Race Operations. This role includes taking care of the logistics of race night, so everything is done in an efficient and timely manner during the course of the night. This role does not include decisions involved with on track action, as Bekki Parsons remains the Race Director. Blair will continue in his role as announcer as well.
US 36 Raceway will continue to update everyone on details on how we plan to return to racing.
