KINGSPORT, Tenn. — Kingsport Speedway officials have announced the track’s opener has been postponed until April 2 due to setbacks caused by COVID-19.
“Some (competitors) are recovering from COVID-19 and some are simply not ready due to COVID,” said Kingsport Speedway General Manager and Promoter Karen Tunnell. “We want our fans, sponsors and teams to have a great kick off to the season.”
The track will continue to host open practice sessions every Saturday leading up to the season opener on April 2. The track can also be rented throughout the week for private testing.
Tickets for the opener on April 2 will be $12 for adults, with children 12 and under admitted free of charge.
