Any place close to Irwindale Speedway where we can park our race rig overnight?

Unfortunately Irwindale is closed as of this weekend. Too bad ,i would have made this one, $500 from Mark and lets say $50 into the pot from each car and maybe a couple of sponsors and now you have something to get excited about.

Look up the article on the san gabriel Valley News. Or go to Moparts/ race only for more info. I hope its a mistake ,but it doesnt look good. Try Fontana or if it must be 1/8 mile Barona sounds like a fun place to go.

Sorry to hear that!

That is unfortunate.. I hope they find a buyer or can keep something going there.


But it does appear that there are a few other places to race in the general Area.. and they race pretty much all year..



here if PRP were to close I would have to travel a minimum of 130 Miles to next closest track.. And we generally only run april-october.
