In January of 2001 a series featuring super late models was created at the track known then as Central Arizona Raceway at the fairgrounds east of Casa Grande, Ariz.
The four tracks in California dedicated solely to micro sprint racing continue to develop talented drivers, and some have moved to full size sprint car programs.
Starting with the recent Duel In The Desert in Las Vegas and continuing until mid-February, IMCA-sanctioned events will keep racers busy on the West coast.
Night two of the Duel in the Desert took 10 hours and 6 minutes to complete from the scheduled 4 p.m. start time, and it came to a close with a last lap, last turn pass for a victory.
The 22nd annual Duel in the Desert opened Thursday at The Dirt Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, with Tom Berry Jr. and R.C. Whitwell claiming the IMCA modified twin main events.
The 22nd annual Duel in the Desert for IMCA modifieds and IMCA Northern Sport Mods will fill The Dirt Track at Las Vegas’ pit area next week for a four-day event.
