The drivers meeting is set for 4:30pm with hot laps to follow. Spectator gates open at 5pm. General Admission tickets are just $10 for adults while juniors ages 6-12, seniors, and military are $5, and kids 5 & under are FREE! Pit passes are $25.

Fans who cannot attend the action in person can view flag-to-flag coverage on Fast Four Media, the speedway’s 2026 Pay-Per-View partner.

Saturday’s race also serves as the final round for the 2026 King of California.

Stockton’s Nikko Panella is just one more night of racing away from another sweep of the Wing and Non-Wing competition at his home track, leading both championships by a comfortable margin. His complete sweep of the features during the Dual at Delta cemented his position for one of the best seasons in track history.

In the winged Super 600 action, Panella’s advantage is 31 markers over Madera’s Logan Trevino. Raio Salmon has remained within reach throughout the year, 34 points out of the lead in third. Alex Panella and Jeffrey Rosas round out the top-five heading into Saturday’s curtain closer.

The Non-Wing lead for Nikko Panella is an outstanding 44 points ahead of Manteca’s TK O’Brien. Brody Rubio of Manteca is third followed by Ty Carlson and Briggs Davis. Non-Wing also races for 30-laps on Saturday.

O’Brien leads the stock A-Class, however, despite no feature wins this year. Tracy’s Levi Osborne has scored twice and is just seven points out of the lead. Cole Freircihs, Jason Maples, and Colin Kirby make up the balance of the top-five ahead of a 25-lap feature.

Both the A-Class and Restricted are expected to attract super-sized fields with the King of California competitors joining the excitement. Maya Mauldin of Rancho Murieta is in position to close out the 2026 Restricted championship, leading Bryson Sozinho of Hanford by 41 points. Cash Brooks of Galt has had a brilliant rookie season from third in the standings followed by Haven Sherman of Citrus Heights and Kevin Tikkanen and Kingsburg. Restricted also races in a 25-lap contest.

Lucas Fenn of Oakley leads Petaluma’s Santino Gonella by 15 points heading into the Jr. Sprints finale. Logan Fenn is third in the standings with a 20-lap feature on offer.

Jaxon Porter in Super 600, TK O’Brien in Non-Wing, Dash Duinkerken in A-Class, Miles Boertje in Restricted, and Lee Uzzell in Jr. Sprints lead the King of California standings as well.
