Marysville, CA (June 4, 2019) – Between rain and off weekends, the weekly Saturday night racing at Marysville Raceway has been stop and go for the better part of four months. Finally, the weather looks to be in our favor as we gear up for what should be point race #10. In fact, we are scheduled to host three races in June led by this Saturday night, June 8th. Four predominant divisions will be on hand led by the winged 360 sprints, IMCA Pepsi Sport Mods, Super Stocks and Hobby Stocks. It looks to be a stellar night of racing and family fun.
