Fans who cannot attend the action in person can view flag-to-flag coverage on Fast Four Media, the speedway’s 2025 Pay-Per-View partner.

Stockton’s Nikko Panella looks to complete a sweep of the Super 600 and Non-Wing divisions, joining Brandon Carey, Caden Sarale, and Austin Wood as drivers to achieve the challenging feat. Panella’s season has been marked by numerous victories with eight total wins. He put the titles out of reach from his competition with three wins over the Dual at Delta on Labor Day weekend.

Panella leads Fresno’s Mattix Salmon, Manteca’s Brody Rubio, Stockton’s Vito Celli, and Rancho Murieta’s Lucas Mauldin heading into the 30-lap finale for Non-Wing.

Nikko’s older brother Alex ranks second in the winged Super 600 action. Mattix Salmon is third followed by Fresno’s Raio Salmon and Celli. Super 600 also competes in a 30-lap race on Saturday night.

Landon Henry of Sacramento has stretched out his A-Class lead to an insurmountable 69 markers, using three victories in his rookie Micro Sprint season to seal the inaugural championship for the stock division. Kyle Fernandez of Tracy aims to wrap up second in the points followed by Vacaville’s Jackson Tardiff, Tracy’s Levi Osborne, and Brentwood’s Aniyah Scott.

Briggs Davis of Manteca will add the Restricted championship to his two Jr. Sprints titles for his young Delta Speedway career, leaning on three victories this season for the championship lead. Clovis’ Connor Penix, Rancho Murieta’s Maya Mauldin, Dean Skrifvars of Castro Valley, and Haven Sherman of Citrus Heights look to conclude top-five seasons as well. A 25-lap feature awaits for the Restricted competitors.

Jr. Sprints is the only Delta Speedway championship yet to be decided with a pressure cooker of a 20-lap feature on tap for Stockton’s youngest drivers. Easton Wright of Martinez has three victories but only leads Oakley’s Lucas Fenn by one point. Fenn swept the Dual at Delta features to place himself into striking distance in the championship. Samantha Dozier of Vacaville sits third followed by Santino Gonella of Petaluma and Oakley’s Logan Fenn.
