FIRST PRACTICE DAY COMPLETE – SEASON OPENER JUST DAYS AWAY WITH HALF-OFF GRANDSTAND ADMISSION!

open practice The first of three early season practice days was completed on Saturday at the ASA Member Shangri-La II Motorspeedway with several teams taking the opportunity to get out on track and shake down their cars. One team has to be particularly grateful they were there, and that would be the Pudgies Pizza Street Stock Team of Bill Frisbee, Jr. In what ended up being his last run of the afternoon, the right front brake caliper seized causing significant damage to the suspension. Fortunately, everyone kept their cars on the track, and off of the outside concrete wall. The second practice session of the season will be held on Saturday May 11. The gates will open at 3:00 pm with practice beginning at 4:00 and lasting until dark.
