The Speedway?s NASCAR racing series kicks off the season on Saturday, March

which attracts many of figure 8 racing?s top national Outlaw Figure 8 racers
who will compete in a one-hour race. The event includes a Demolition Derby,
Super Truck open race and some surprises.

Competitors who compete in the popular sport of Drifting identify Irwindale
Speedway as the ?House of Drift?. The facility will live up to that moniker
by hosting three events in 2008. The D1 Grand Prix will conduct two events
at the Speedway including its November 22-23 Japan series season finale and
World Championship match. The date for a second D1GP event will be announced
in the near future.

stars including those from NASCAR and USAC.
