Special giveaways
June 30th: Santa Rosa Short Track: This event was a huge success in 2016 and it should be a special event this year too.
July 14th: Humboldt Half Mile: This event has all the makings of a classic. Cory Rich built an epic race track and we had a huge fan turnout. We have plans for a custom bike show and a local casino will a sponsor and race headquarters. Our goal is 150 entries and a spectator sellout.
Aug. 25th: Carson City Short Track: Sell out crowds, huge rider turnout and always a new theme. This year is the "Pro Deuce Invitational" where eight pro riders will battle for the crown, elimination style. $5,000 in purse money. And yes, this is in addition to the regular purse of $5,000.
Sept 7th: Kings Speedway, Hanford, 1/4 mile: This will be our wildest event of the year. Combine Super Hooligans and the World Surfing League. What? The WSL is bringing a round of their international surf competition to Surf Ranch at Lemoore. Roland Sands Design is bringing the Super Hooligans. And WFT brings it's series show and makes it all happen. It should be a helluva hullabaloo.
