News From Saskatchewan

Well race fans, if there is anything that warms this reporter's heart, it's seeing healthy growth in Prairie Dirt country.  That is what you will find at southeast  Saskatchewan's premier dirt track facility, Estevan Motor Speedway in 2008.

Already known as the host of one leg of the IMCA Dakota Classic Modified Tour which also includes tour stops at North Dakota's Nodak Speedway, Williston Basin Speedway, Southwest Speedway & Dacotah Speedway, Estevan has scheduled a series of race specials for 2008 that will have fans on the edge of their seats all season long.  Summer heats up at EMS with the 2008 Dakota Classic Tour on Monday, July 7th. 

The rumors have been confirmed!  The World of Outlaws Late Model Series will be invading Estevan Motor Speedway for the first time on Saturday, July 12th following their visit to River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, ND. on Friday, July 11th as part of the "Wild West Tour" swing of their schedule.  The Outlaws Late Models also have eastern Canadian dates at Ohsweken Speedway (June 19), Autodrome Drummond (June 21) and Cornwall Motor Speedway (June22).  Additional information on this special event will be provided in the not too distant future.

The Northern Late Model Racing Association will pay another visit to one of their favorite stops on the tour at the 3/8 mile, high banks on Saturday, July 26th and the Northern Outlaw Sprint Association makes its annual visit on Saturday, August 9th.

Speaking of sprint cars, please be sure to watch for an exclusive one-on-one feature with Estevan's own Kyle Fedyk as he shares his thoughts about racing across the prairies.

Aside from its specials, Estevan Motor Speedway provides one of the best weekly race programs on the prairies for the dirt track racing fan.  Its fan-friendly atmosphere is perfect for a night out with the family.  Western hospitality at its best!
