Anderson Speedway returns to racing action on Saturday, April 18 with the Howe CRA Sportsman, Street Stocks and Front Wheel Drives in Oval and Figure 8 action.

The Howe CRA Sportsman will make its fourth appearance at the world’s fastest quarter mile oval. Three drivers have scored victories, Al Cook Jr. (2006), Steve Blair (2007) and Tony Dager (2008). Dager won the 2008 championship over Rick Rinehart and Justin Alsip.

In the Front Wheel Drives, Anderson’s Jeff Saxon has begun his goal of a division championship in the Oval division by winning two of the three events. Kevin Harmon scored the other feature victory. The Figure 8 division looks to begin their season after the opening race on March 28 was postponed to April 24.
