Bear Ridge Speedway is gearing up for their 52nd year of consecutive racing. The Ridge continues to be the best source of great inexpensive high-quality entertainment for families. What makes the entertainment? Some of the best drivers in New England, fierce competition, and the return of drivers who know “there’s no place like home”
The DIRTcar Sabil & Sons Sportsman Modifieds will see several returning faces in 2019 who have raced the Ridge. Can Kevin Chaffee defend his title in 2019? The local hot shoe driving the 73 will have his hands full with a pack of wolves all vying for the coveted spot. Robert Tucker, Richie Simmons, and Ryan Christian all had great 2018 seasons, and hoping to be the lucky one in 2019 to be crowned king. With some stiff competition from these guys plus several others in the division claiming the gold will be no easy feat for any of the drivers and is sure to offer some edge of your seat entertainment for the fans.
The Laquerre Sports USAC DMA Midgets numbers are looking strong this year, with several drivers already talking about being the one on top at the end of the season. Will this year’s champion come from the Matzack stable or will the new young guns from the Miller Stable be able to have a banner year and claim the gold for their car owner. Don’t rule out one of the long time competitors like Adam Whitney who has knocked on the door several times only to fall short.
Also returning of course are the DIRTcar Wells River Chevrolet Sportsman Coupes, the C.A. Miller Limited Late Models, the Peanut’s Auto Four Cylinders, the WYKR Sprint Cars of New England and the State Farm Ins Mike Estrada 4/6 Cylinder Enduro Series.
