Hagerstown Speedway Season Opener set for this Saturday
HAGERSTOWN, MD – It’s been a longtime waiting for racing in the Hub City due to the Covid-19 pandemic that has caused interruptions across the world to daily living, and brought sporting events along with social gatherings to a halt.
It’s been a two month long wait. The wait is finally over.
Coming up this Saturday, May 30, Hagerstown Speedway will finally open the doors to the 73rd season opener with Super Late Models, Pure Stocks, and Hobby Stocks.
The 25 lap Super Late Model feature pays $2,000 to win, while the Pure Stock and Hobby Stock winners will earn a guaranteed start in the Hub City 100 on June 6. Both stock classes will run under the small car national rules opening day. Visit the website for details www.hagerstownspeedway.com
