Despite unhealthy air quality forcing officials to cancel last Saturday’s show, Petaluma Speedway has held three USAC West Coast Sprint Car events. 2018 Champion Austin Liggett has topped the last two races and “The Human Highlight Reel” Geoff Ensign claimed the July 29, 2017 debut after setting the track record of 13.728.

When the series last visited the Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds on August 8th, Austin Liggett (Linden, CA) claimed the twelfth win of his career. Fast qualifier Colby Johnson, “BT Express” Bradley Terrell, “Wild” Billy Aton, “Hollywood” Danny Faria Jr., Shayna Ensign, Ryan Timmons, Matthew Haulot, Glenn Bryan, and Ricky Brophy rounded out the top-10 drivers.

The USAC Western States and Bay Cities Racing Association (BCRA) Midgets will clash at the fast 3/8-mile on October 3rd and 24th. Both events are part of the “West Coast Stock Car / Motorsports Hall of Fame Challenge.”

Petaluma Speedway is located on the Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds in Petaluma, California at 100 Fairgrounds Drive. Due to the local health department regulations regarding the COVID-19 Coronavirus, the GRANDSTANDS ARE CLOSED for the event.
