Bear Ridge Speedway “there’s no place like home”

For Immediate Release BRS-021620-1

Bear Ridge Speedway is gearing up for their 53rd year of consecutive racing. The Ridge continues to be the best source of great inexpensive high-quality entertainment for families. What makes the entertainment? Some of the best drivers in New England, fierce competition, and the return of drivers who know “there’s no place like home”
The DIRTcar Sabil & Sons Sportsman Modifieds will see several returning faces in 2020 who have raced the Ridge. Can Kevin Chaffee reclaim the championship in 2020? The local hot shoe driving the 73 will have his hands full with a pack of wolves all vying for the coveted spot. Robert Tucker, Richie Simmons, and Ryan Christian all had great 2019 seasons, and hoping to be the lucky one to dethrone the 2019 king Jordan Fornwalt. With some stiff competition from these guys plus several others in the division claiming the gold will be no easy feat for any of the drivers and is sure to offer some edge of your seat entertainment for the fans.
The USAC DMA Midgets numbers are looking strong this year, with several drivers already talking about being the one on top at the end of the season. Will this year’s champion come from the Matzack stable or will the new young guns from the Miller Stable be able to have a banner year and claim the gold for their car owner. Don’t rule out one of the long time competitors like Adam Whitney who has knocked on the door several times only to fall short.
Also returning of course are the DIRTcar Wells River Chevrolet Sportsman Coupes, the C.A. Miller Limited Late Models, the Dirt Stockers, the Peanut’s Auto Four Cylinders, the WYKR Sprint Cars of New England and the State Farm Ins Mike Estrada 4/6 Cylinder Enduro Series.
Remember in today's society we could all use a little more family entertainment, and the Ridge is your best place to be for just that. The admission price is more than reasonable; the show top-notch, the food superior, and the family friendly atmosphere is just what you are looking for. If you haven’t been to the Ridge in a while or at all why not check us out in 2020.
Season passes application forms are available online at our website. This year you can get just a front gate general admission pass or a combo pass for both the front and the pit gate (BRS license required for combo pass.) Check out our new and improved website for all the details.
2020 driver and crew membership applications are now available on the website. Be sure to get yours sent in early to beat the lines on opening day. To be eligible for the Bear Ridge Speedway points fund, and recognized at the annual awards banquet, drivers must hold a 2020 Bear Ridge Speedway or DIRTcar license, compete in the required number of events, and run on track designated tires as indicated in the rule book.
The price of a regular show general admission (front gate) ticket for adults (ages 17 to 61) is $10.00 a person and children 11 and under $2.00. Teens 12 to 16 and seniors 62 and older is $8.00. Military Discounts are available at $2.00 off for those with a valid ID.
The 2020 kid's club membership is only $12.00 per child, infant to 11 years old, ($10.00 with front gate ticket stub), and once you are a member you get in free the rest of the season!
The back gate (pit gate) ticket price for Bear Ridge Speedway and DIRTcar 2020 license holders is $25.00. Non-license holders is $30.00 (both prices are in addition to the front gate ticket.)
Mark your calendars for the first glimpse of the stars and cars of 2020 on Saturday April 25th, in West Lebanon NH. Show time is 10:00 to 1:00.
Visa and MasterCard are accepted. Visa and MasterCard are accepted. Racing begins at the famous “6:00-ish” start time every Saturday starting in May thru September. Bear Ridge Speedway is located on Kidder Road in Bradford, VT, just off Exit 16 on Interstate 91.
