Sunday Afternoon Short Track Action in Toledo | Fathers Day Sunday Special is TOMORROW!

Trevor Berry with his father Dennis at Toledo Speedway - 5/22/22

June 17, 2023 -- Tomorrow at Toledo Speedway, the Fathers Day Sunday Special presented by Monroe Asphalt will take place at 3 PM. This race will mark the first ever visit of the 500 Sprint Car Tour Series to Toledo, and a return for Midwest Modified Touring Series racing alongside the local Salenbien Excavating Late Model Sportsman and Safety-Kleen Factory Stock divisions.

Spectator gates will open at 11:30 AM for a wide open day of racing action in the Glass City.

The track will be a familiar sight for fans and drivers alike as the track has been a mainstay on the USAC Silver Crown Series schedule. Many drivers that compete on the 500 Sprint Car Tour also compete in the USAC Silver Crown Series, specifically in the pavement events, and will have experience on the track even though it is a new track for the series.

A handful of competitors have also raced a winged sprint car around Toledo’s half mile oval and will enter the event with a certain level of comfortability. The event will be the first time Toledo fans have seen non-wing sprint cars compete at the famed track since 2019 when Aaron Pierce drove his #26 machine to victory lane.

The 500 Sprint Car Tour will be joined at Toledo Speedway by the Midwest Modified Tour, Late Model Sportsmans, and Factory Stocks. General Admission gates open at 12:00pm and rotating practice begins at 11:30am. Qualifying for the 500 Sprint Car Tour is set to begin at 1:40pm with racing beginning at 3:00pm. The 500 Sprint Car Tour feature is the first feature of the afternoon and will be featured on FloRacing.
