The Junior Sprint division will move into a 6:30 pm Show Starter time slot starting at this Saturday’s event. National Anthems will run after that race as the first NASCAR division takes to the track for the regular 7:00 PM start time. The show starter will be the first of two 20-lap events for the Junior Sprints, the second of which is run as part of the regular program. An updated itinerary will be posted to the track website for drivers indicating any updates to practice times and pre-race driver’s meeting scheduling.

The goal of the lineup change is to help events finish at an earlier time, especially for the youngest drivers, and to encourage fans to come to the track earlier to enjoy the Outside Groove Diner Fan Experience and the sights and sounds of the track.

Junior Sprint competition is open to kids up to age 14 years old. The 6.5 horse power sprint cars are the entry-level class at Grand Bend Speedway that allow kids to have fun and learn the ins and outs of racing.
