“It’ll be one of the busiest and most eventful nights of racing this season because we’re combining Fan Appreciation Night and the Night of Champions” said Speedway 660’s Max Roy. “The pre-race autograph session and prize giveaways are always a hit with our fans and on top of that our drivers will be going all out for those championship and rookie trophies.”

Fans will see racing in all five of Speedway 660’s weekly divisions including: West Wood Estate Apartments Bandoleros; Fredericton Gun Shop Sharp Shooters; DMR Auto Sales & Service Street Stocks; Martin’s Home Heating Sportsman and; RE/MAX Group Four Realty Pro Stocks.

“The 2015 championships are still up in the air and we won’t know who the winners are until the feature races are completed in each division” said Roy. “The Night of Champions always provides fans with a few surprises and with the points as tight as they are, it’s going to be a dramatic night of racing.”
