Promoter Renews Contract With Silver Dollar Speedway (CA)

Northern California auto racing promoter Dennis Gage has signed a five-year renewal to operate Silver Dollar Speedway through 2023.

Gage, who took over the Chico, California-speedway in 2011, approaches his eighth year of operation of the Fairgrounds’ 1/4-mile clay oval. The new contract was approved by the Fairgrounds governing board during an early July meeting.  

Gage also announced a new partnership with area businessman Lowell Moural. Moural has operated Cycleland, a 1/8-mile banked clay track near Chico dedicated to Outlaw karts, modified midgets, and motocross racing, for the last 38 years.

“Lowell and I have been working together informally for six years now and it just made sense to combine our resources,” Gage said. “Lowell has done a great job for this community, especially the youth, and he’s strong on track and race operations. But most importantly, we share a mutual goal to provide the best entertainment possible for the residents of Chico and travelers from afar.”

The pair announced the possibility of facility improvements, race program upgrades, equipment modernization, novelty acts and entertainment, streamlined scheduling and related improvements.
