Delta Speedway has enjoyed a strong run under the tutelage of Bob & Tiffanie Panella and will continue to award track championships in four Micro Sprint divisions. Super 600, Non-Wing, Restricted, and Jr. Sprints have thrilled spectators young and old with their methanol-burning, open-wheel excitement.
Stockton’s Caden Sarale has ruled the speedway for the past two years, becoming the only driver to sweep the championships in Super 600 and Non-Wing on back-to-back seasons. Drivers will be aiming to knock Sarale off the top of the pedestal for the $1000-to-win championship titles at the end of the season. Both divisions will compete in 30-lap, $500-to-win features along with ten-lap heat races and group qualifying sessions.
Restricted was claimed by Tracy teenager Brandon Riveira in 2020. The first step into “full-size” dirt racing for many of the division’s participants, the courage and skill displayed in this division is second to none. Feature events for Restricted are 25-laps for a guaranteed $300-to-win along with heat races and time trials.
Rancho Murieta’s Lucas Mauldin narrowly topped Tracy’s Kyle Fernandez to be the champion in Jr. Sprints, the youngest division at the speedway. Jr. Sprints do not qualify and instead race in a pair of heat races to set their positions for a 20-lap feature for a guaranteed $200-to-win.
Pit gates open at noon with the driver’s meeting at 4:30 pm and hot laps to follow. Delta Speedway Stockton thanks Financial Center Credit Union, Interstate Truck Center, Lovotti Air, 22 Metal Fab, Van De Pol Petroleum, Kludt Oil, Starr Property Management, and Performance Electronics for their support of the 2021 season.
