Prentice Motorsports Group, promoters of the King of the West Series, have announced a 17-race schedule for the 32nd season of competition for the 410 winged sprint car series.
“I really hope our teams and fans enjoy this schedule that is made up of some traditional events, return to a former site we used to visit, and a trip to a facility for the first time in our existence,” said PMG President John Prentice.
The series will embark on eight venues in the year ahead ranging from Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, Calif., all the way down to the Kern County Raceway near Bakersfield, Calif.
The racing will kick off on March 4 as the stars and cars of the King of the West Series make their first of two visits to Silver Dollar Speedway as they take top billing in the Mini Gold Cup.
April 8 is slated for the lone event at the up and coming Kern County Raceway near Bakersfield, Calif., before invading Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, Calif., on April 22 for the highly popular Peter Murphy Classic.
May 6 will mark the final visit of the year at Silver Dollar Speedway for another highly anticipated in the name of the 27th annual Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial.
The following week fans in Placerville, Calif., will see the series’ lone stop at the quarter-mile bullring on May 13 before the second of three stops at Thunderbwol Raceway in Tulare, Calif., comes on May 20 for the Chris and Brian Faria Memorial.
June 3 marks the first of two return trips to the unique Antioch Speedway with the second and final visit coming on Aug. 5.
The third and final trip to Thunderbowl Raceway comes on June 10, a week before the first of two visits at the scenic Petaluma Speedway slated for June 17 with the second visit coming on Aug. 26.
Continuing to run in the cool climate, June 23 will be the first three stops at Ocean Speedway’s quarter-mile bullring with return trips coming on July 15 for the seventh annual Howard Kaeding Classic, and on Oct. 6.
The Keller Auto Speedway in Hanford, Calif., will be on the King of the West schedule with the first visit coming on July 1, and the second and final visit taking place on Oct. 14 as part of the 32nd annual Cotton Classic.
The season will come to an end Nov. 4 at the popular Stockton Dirt Track.
