Twenty-five years later, Mon- tana Raceway Park is one of the most popular motorsports facilities in the northwest.
The new season roars to life May 30 with the Super Late Models Miller Lite 125. Qualifying begins at 6 p.m. and racing starts at 7 p.m.
There will be various races throughout the summer on a weekly basis starting this weekend. The Su- per Stocks, Hobby Stocks, CHS Leg- ends and Bandoleros hit the track on June 6.
One of the premier races in the region, the 25th annual Montana 200 is July 16-18.
USA Today named Raceway Park one of the 10 best short tracks in the country in 2000. The grandstands can hold more than 4,000 spectators, and the weekly events between May and September offer some of the larg- est cash purses in the region, includ- ing the Montana 200, which rallies more than 50 drivers from across the nation in pursuit of nearly $50,000 in winnings.
