(FREDERICTON, NB – January 18th, 2022) – Speedway 660 is excited to unveil their 2022 schedule of events. The schedule features 13 racing cards over 11 weekends from May to September, anchored by the 22nd Annual SpeedWeekend on Labour Day Weekend. In all, the track will see nine unique stock car classes compete on the 1/3-mile oval with Speedway 660’s four house divisions, the Pro Stock, Late Model Sportsman, Street Stock and Sharp Shooters, comprising a majority of the racing events throughout the Summer of 2022.

Highlights of the 2022 schedule include;

• The season kicks off with the 29th Annual Riverview Ford Lincoln Season Opener on Sunday, May 15th at 2pm. The championship point races will kick off for all four house divisions with extended distance features for the Pro Stock (100-laps), Late Model Sportsman (75-laps) and Street Stocks (50-laps).
• The Pro Stock division will once again crown a track champion in 2022. The division will contest six point races plus the 22nd Annual Pro Stock 250 on Sunday, September 4th.
• The Late Model Sportsman division will see extended distance races on Saturday, July 2nd (Urquhart Construction Firecracker 150) and Saturday, September 3rd following their season opening 75-lap feature. The SpeedWeekend 150-lap feature will be a dry tire race.
• Street Stocks have put on some of the best shows of any house class at Speedway 660 in recent seasons and will have a trio of extended distance races in season to showcase their talents. The “Knights of Street Stock” 100 on Saturday, June 11th gives the division an early year, extended distance race to make up for losing the 2021 Ricky Bobby 150 last October due to COVID-19 restrictions.
