Ona Speedway Announces 2024 Mountaineer 100 Details

ONA, WV-When the 2024 schedule was released last fall, one of the biggest changes to the schedule was moving the tracks biggest event, the Mountaineer 100, to the spring and sanctioning it for the first time with the Midwest Modifieds Tour powered by Wheeler Trucking. The speedway has now finalized all of the details for the mega event.

The weekend will start with an open practice day on Friday, April 26th. Practice will run from 1:00 pm until 8:00 pm with pit gates opening at noon. Pit admission will be $25 for ages 13 and up and free for ages 12 and under.
