Plymouth Speedway will make its debut on USAC's Indiana Sprint Week schedule after being tabbed as the opener for the 31st edition of the series, which kicks off on Friday, July 20.

The addition of the three-eighths-mile dirt oval expands the Indiana Sprint Week schedule to northern Indiana for the first time since 1988.

Now the seven-race summer series encompasses venues from the north, south, west, southeast and central regions of the state and its proximity to the following night’s race at Kokomo Speedway makes the hour drive feasible for teams and fans.

Plymouth Speedway has made great strides over the past few years in facility upgrades, with new press boxes added, a permanent video board, new concourse area, the construction of a towering grandstand and its conversion of the track surface from pavement to dirt.

The USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship has made two previous appearances at Plymouth over the past two seasons.

Plymouth Speedway becomes the newest first-time addition to the Indiana Sprint Week schedule since Brownstown Speedway in 2010 and the 14th track overall to host an Indiana Sprint Week event since its inception three decades ago.

Following Plymouth, the Indiana Sprint Week schedule carries on to Kokomo Speedway on Saturday, July 21, Lawrenceburg Speedway on Sunday, July 22, the Terre Haute Action Track on Wednesday, July 25, Lincoln Park Speedway in Putnamville on Thursday, July 26, Bloomington Speedway on Friday, July 27, and Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt on Saturday, July 28.
