Bedford Will Again Try To Kick Off 2019 Racing Season

After another weekend of rain wiped out racing action, Bedford will again try to kick off the 2019 racing season this weekend with a busy doubleheader of Friday and Sunday night racing.

Fast Friday Racing returns with a special visit from the USAC East Coast Sprint Cars, joined by the Late Models ($2000 to win), Modifieds ($750 to win), and Pure Stocks ($300 to win) in racing action.

On Sunday night, adult spectator admission will be just $5.00. A full slate of racing action will include four 20 lap features, with the Late Model Sportsman, Racesaver Sprints, Semi Lates & Four Cylinders in action, with a special visit by the vintage racers.

With the rainout of Bedford Opening Weekend, the Opening Day posted purses for each division has been moved to this weekend, so each division will see purse increases. Please remember that Bedford rain-checks can be used at any 2019 racing event at face value, with the exception of the fair races.

Gates open at 4:00 on Sunday, with warmups at 6:00 and racing at 6:30. Sunday general admission is $5, with kids 12 and under free. Pit admission is $25.
