Competitors planning to participate in the 2012 professional auto racing championship season at Wall Stadium Speedway will have one final chance at pre-season practice this Saturday (4/21/12). For competitors, pit area gates will open at 9:00 a.m. for race car inspection before the four hour practice session begins at 11:00 a.m. Fans will be welcome into the grandstands free of charge.
“The last two Saturday practice sessions were very well attended,” track operator Cliff Krause said. “This Saturday is the last chance to racers to make changes before the season beings. We are looking for a lot of cars to be at the track this Saturday for the final pre-season practice.”
While grandstand seating is free of charge, Saturday’s practice session is a paid affair for competitors. Race teams are also reminded that tires will be available at the track during Saturday’s practice session. Competitor licenses will also be available at the speedway office.
Once Saturday’s testing is complete, all attention will turn towards Saturday, April 28 and the official 2012 Season Opener. That season opening program will feature the Wall Modified, Sportsman, Street Stock, Legend Cars and Factory Stock divisions. An “On Track Party,” where fans will be welcome from the grandstands onto the track to check out all of the racecars up close, will be a part of the season opening festivities. The April 28 “On Track Party” is set to start at 4:30 p.m., while opening night racing will start at 6:00 p.m.
Weekly Saturday evening stock car racing events will then run until the end of September, with the exception of June 23 when the annual “Formula D Drift Championship” will be presented.
The fifth mile inner oval at Wall Stadium will also be busy this weekend as the first event of the season for the “Small Car Series” is set for Sunday (April 22). Pit area gates will open at 9:30 a.m. with inspections and practice available for all vehicles. Sunday Series racing will start at noon.
Wall Stadium Speedway is located on Route 34 in Wall Township, N.J., just one mile north of Garden State Parkway exit 98 and Interstate 195 exit 35B.
