California Speedway
TUNE IN NASCAR Broadcast Schedule

California Speedway California Auto Club Speedway has a history that you might expect a track just 50 miles from Hollywood to have.

The speedway sits on a 568-acre site that once hosted the first steel mill located west of the Rocky Mountains, Kaiser Steel Mill.

The mill produced the steel that helped build the Liberty ships used by the Allies to win World War II.

I hope NASCAR has put one of those huge bumper thingies on the back of their jet drier in case Montoya decides to ram another one.

Gonna be in the 70’s here all weekend, but it looked like you were supposed to get more rain.

What’s up with that?

I feel some shooting in the desert and a few motorcycle rides coming on...

I sure hope we start to see more humans and fewer empty seats. Bristol was a shock as it looked like 40-50% of the seats were empty.

I have found the cost of a race ticket to be about the same as a ticket to a high end show or concert but the rip off by hotels is almost criminal.

What a schedule. Daytona Fl. to Phoenix AZ. to Las Vegas NV. then back east to Bristol TN, then back to the west coast. I wouldn't want to pay that fuel bill!
