Lucas Oil Speedway tentative 2020 schedule announced


Lucas Oil Speedway has released its 2020 tentative schedule and it includes something for everyone with motorsports events planned on three different venues at the complex—and even a professional bull ride.

Along with the 13-week Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series, which General Manager Danny Lorton calls "the backbone of our schedule," there's at least one special event per month from April through October.

"We're excited that the 2020 schedule again has lots of variety," Lorton said.

"It'll be great to have the Show-Me 100 presented by ProtecttheHarvest.com back after the unfortunate situation last spring."

The 2019 Show-Me 100, featuring the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series/MLRA Late Model Series along with the USRA Modifieds, was cancelled due to the severe storm that hit Wheatland a few days before Memorial Day Weekend.

Engines will fire for the first time in 2020 on March 28 with an open test & tune. The Weekly Racing Series opener is set for April 4 with the first special—the 7th annual MLRA Spring Nationals presented by RacingJunk.com—April 10-11 and also fetauring the USRA Modifieds.

USRA Modifieds will also share the spotlight with the late models at the 14th annual CMH Diamond Nationals on Saturday, July 18.

August starts with the 11th annual USMTS Slick Mist Show-Me Shootout presented by Foley Equipment on August 1.

The Rempfer Memorial Season Championship presented by Bill Roberts Chevrolet-Buick happens on August 22. Track champions will be crowned in the four weekly classes, including USRA Modifieds and Out-Pace USRA B-Mods.

Out-Pace USRA B-Mods join the program at the Lucas Oil MLRA Ron Jenkins Memorial presented by Rugged Radios on September 5, and again for the 7th annual Lucas Oil MLRA Fall Nationals and B-Mod Clash of Champions October 8-10.

Season passes, along with Show-Me 100 three-day passes, will go on sale later this winter. Look for that information at LucasOilSpeedway.com and on Lucas Oil Speedway's Facebook and Twitter pages.
