The month of July at I-35 Speedway just keeps getting better. This Saturday, July 7, racing and fireworks highlight the action in the air after the races. Get your oohs and ahhs ready you may need them for the edge of your seat racing or the beautiful sparkling spray of spectacular fireworks.

Gates open at 4:30 p.m., hot laps start at 6:15 and racing begins at 7. Tickets for all this Saturday fun are $15 general admission, $12 for military and seniors 62 and over. Those 18 years and under are free. I-35 Speedway is located at exit 64 off Interstate 35.

For your dining pleasure, concessions are available throughout the facility. The concession has patriotic red, white and blue snow cones available for the Fourth of July holiday weekend. Enjoy a sweet funnel cake, root beer float, beverage of your choice, large tenderloin, hot fries, walking taco, hot dog, or hamburger all prepared to satisfy your appetite. A fantastic place for dinner is the Trackside Bar & Grill overlooking turn 1. Make it a family night with the kids, make it a date night with that special someone, make your plans to be at I-35 Speedway this Saturday for a great night of racing.

Did we say the month of July just keeps getting better? The following Saturday, July 14, we will have double USRA Modified features—you will not want to miss this night—and July 21 is the first annual asphalt racers reunion for those racers in the 1990s who were in competition on the asphalt of Lakeside or I-70 Speedways, double Out-Pace USRA B-Mod features. July 28 is the Kaster Family Celebration as we remember the former promoter of I-35 Speedway, Larry Kaster, plus double features for the Holley USRA Stock Cars.

June was exciting, but it looks like July will be even more fun. Always clean restrooms that would be pleasing to Mom, and always free parking. Where else would you be on Saturday night other than I-35 Speedway?
