Thanks All for a Great Season! - Castrol Raceway would like to Thank everyone who helped make the 2007 Race Season the BEST season the Track has ever had! There were record breaking numbers on both the Drag and Oval side for attendance, speed, and times. We got to watch some of the best Drag Racing around with the IHRA Rocky Mountain Nationals and as the best 410 Sprint Car Races in North America ripped around the Oval during the World of Outlaws Oil City Cup. It is through the support of the Fans, Teams, Drivers, Crews, Families, Sponsors and our hard working Staff who allow us to continue to grow Castrol Raceway into one of the premier racing facilities in North America! Thanks again to everyone who came to Castrol Raceway and supported us. We look forward to having you all back again for the 2008 Race Season!
Mark Your Calendars... They're Back - Be sure to get your 2008 Calendars and mark these dates in because you do not want to miss these shows! The IHRA Rocky Mountain Nationals are back on July 4-6 2008. The 2007 Rocky Mountain Nationals was one for the books as it became the largest attended 3 day National event in IHRA History! With speeds in excess of 300pmh, tickets will be going fast!
August 22 & 23, 2008 the Greatest Show on Dirt returns to Castrol Raceway! The world of Outlaws Oil City Cup makes their way back to Edmonton. Come and watch as Donny Schatz defends his title as the Oil City Cup Champion as Steve Kinser, Danny Lasoski, Joey Saldana and the rest of the Outlaws come to take it from him!
Watch your mailboxes, as the Save My Seat letters will be arriving by the end of October. Be sure to renew your seats for the 2008 Events so you can watch history be made at Castrol Raceway!
