Redwood Acres Raceway
July 27 Event Canceled Due To Area Fires
Unfortunately, for the second time in three years local fires have forced Redwood Acres Raceway officials to cancel a race date featuring the Spears SRL Southwest Tour Series. The previous occasion happened under similar circumstances in 2022 with CALFIRE requiring the use of the Redwood Acres Fairgrounds as a base camp for emergency services.
Though raceway and series officials are heartbroke to cancel the original race date, both are working diligently to reschedule the event later in the season. A strong field of cars was expected between the Spears SRL Southwest Tour Series, the Spears Modified Series and the Nor Cal Legend Series.
CALFIRE’s use of the fairgrounds has canceled all scheduled events for at least the next two weeks which also including racing for the Redwood Outlaw Karts this Saturday. Fairgrounds management encourages those driving in the area to proceed cautiously with the expected increase of traffic.
Race fans looking for a fix can visit Ukiah Speedway on Saturday July 27th. The next race at Redwood Acres Raceway is scheduled for Saturday August 10. O’Reilly Auto Parts will be providing a full slate of action featuring late models, the Upstate Modifieds, Upstate Bombers, NorCal Legends and mini stocks.
