🏁 IT’S BEEN TOO LONG…

The last time we heard engines roar around the Quarter Mile Coliseum was September 18th and we’re more than ready to change that.

After Mother Nature has kept us away, we’re praying for clear skies and the opportunity to finally get back to racing this weekend. πŸ˜…

The track is waiting. The drivers are ready. And we know our fans are ready to be back in those stands.

RACE TO END CANCER β€” AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY NIGHT

πŸ“… Saturday, October 17

It all comes down to The Champ Show at the Quarter Mile Coliseum!

Middleford Speedway will close out the 2026 championship season with a packed night of racing as we crown our champions, settle some unfinished business with makeup races, and bring the racing community together for an even bigger purpose β€” supporting the American Cancer Society and the fight against cancer.
πŸŽ—οΈ Middleford Speedway will donate a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales to the American Cancer Society.

Last year, the Middleford Speedway community helped raise $9,251.17, and we're looking to build on that success in 2026!

🏁 THE CHAMP SHOW LINEUP
πŸ† Jr. Slingshots
πŸ† Super Trucks
πŸ† Mod Lites
πŸ† 600 Wingless Sprints
πŸ† 270 Microsprints
πŸ† All-Star Slingshots
πŸ† Stage 1 Modifieds

With championships on the line and several makeup races that still need to be completed, this is going to be a FULL night of racing at the Quarter Mile Coliseum!

Additional details on the makeup races, race format and order of events will be announced as we get closer.

⚠️ LIMITED LATE MODEL UPDATE

The Limited Late Models will not be competing during The Champ Show on October 17.

With several makeup races that need to be worked into an already packed championship program, we made the decision to remove the Limited Late Models from this event to give us the time needed to complete the remaining races.

We appreciate all of the Limited Late Model drivers and teams who have supported Middleford Speedway this season and appreciate everyone's understanding.

πŸŽ—οΈ THE RACE TO END CANCER

This night is about much more than championships.

We're inviting our drivers, race teams, families, friends and fans to join us in raising money for the American Cancer Society.

The Middleford Speedway Race to End Cancer Team is already established online, and anyone can join the team or make a donation:

Middleford Speedway β€” Race to End Cancer Fundraising Page
And because we're racers, we're adding a little competition!

πŸ† TOP FUNDRAISER
The individual who raises the most money for the Race to End Cancer will receive a RESERVED PARKING SPOT FOR THE ENTIRE 2027 MIDDLEFORD SPEEDWAY SEASON!

πŸ† TOP FUNDRAISING CLASS
We're challenging our seven racing divisions to see who can raise the most money!
The top fundraising class will earn FREE PIT ADMISSION FOR ONE RACE for its participating drivers β€” one pit pass per driver.
We'll be sharing additional information on how each division can participate and track its fundraising.

🎟️ AUCTIONS, FUNDRAISING & MORE

We're also putting together several ways to support the American Cancer Society throughout the evening, including:
🎟️ Ticket Auction
πŸ”¨ Silent Auction
🧁 Bake Sale
πŸŽ—οΈ Race to End Cancer decals and merchandise

We're working on collecting donated items and some special racing memorabilia for the auctions as well. We'll showcase those items as they come in!

🌧️ SEPTEMBER SCRAPPLER CANCELED 🌧️

Due to the rain expected tomorrow, the September Scrappler scheduled for Saturday, October 3, has been canceled.

The forecasted rainfall will not allow us to provide the safe, competitive racing surface that our drivers and fans deserve.

We also have traveling teams planning to leave early tomorrow morning to join us. We do not want them spending time and money on the road, only to receive a cancellation notice and have to turn around midway through their trip. Making this decision tonight gives everyone the opportunity to adjust their plans before leaving home.

We know how much work our race teams, sponsors, employees and fans put into preparing for an event, and we do not make this decision lightly.

Any updates concerning the affected races or future schedule changes will be announced separately.

Thank you for your patience, support and understanding. Please stay safe, and we hope to see everyone soon at the Quarter Mile Coliseum.
