We are beyond excited for the 2021 racing season.
2020 was a very interesting season to say the least. We have the best fans, the best drivers, the best car owners, the best crew members and the best workers a facility could ask for! We have a few big shows planned this season and are continuing to work to add more.
To get things kicked off in April, we plan to have several OPEN test & tune dates to allow teams and drivers to come out and shake their cars down. These dates are open to ALL types of cars, even if they do not race at our track, or only race at our track on an occasional basis.
In addition to the extra TEST dates, we plan to have our Season Opener on April 24, 2021.
As always, May 1st will mark the beginning of the 2021 points races for both UMP DIRTcar as well as The Charleston Speedway.
We have insured the return of the Freaky 40 race for UMP Pro Modifieds, and are still working out the details on a new addition to The Charleston Speedway; The .38 Special for Modifieds!
2020 marked the first time in 30 years that National caliber Midgets graced the high banks of The Charleston Speedway, and we have secured them for 4 events in 2021. They will be bringing WAR non wing sprint cars, as well as 600cc Outlaw Micro Sprints. June 16th, the POWRi National Midgets, and POWRi 600cc Outlaw Micro Sprints will be opening their Illinois Speedweek at The Charleston Speedway.
The UMP DIRTcar FALL Nationals will be in the house for UMP Street Stocks and UMP Factory Stocks the first week in October and we will close the season out with our annual Powder Puff & Mechanics race!
We can't wait to get the 2021 racing season kicked off....and We can't wait to see YOU!!
