Toledo Speedway

TOLEDO, OH: There's something about walking into Frenchtown Square Mall in Monroe and Westfield Franklin Park in Toledo at this time of year-and when you see the freshly-painted, sharp-looking race cars, you start to get anxious for racing season!

There will be a bowling tournament on March 15; All are welcome. You must pre-register by calling 419-727-1100...

TOLEDO, OH: (3-2-09): With the 2009 racing season right around the corner, Flat Rock and Toledo Speedways have rolled out their special event advance ticket sale programs.

RACING FUEL

SUNOCO Racing Fuel, distributed by Bazell Race Fuels, will supply the tracks with fuel. The cost continues to rise and fall, but it appears that the price will be lower in 2009. First deliveries of fuel will take place in mid-April; we'll announce the price at that time. Bazell has also agreed to once again contribute to the point fund at both tracks.
