    I use to watch every race until Dale died and Rusty retired. I went to California Speedway a few times.

    What I miss more was the local Saugus Speedway. It was an every other weekend thing for years. Then they up and closed it without even telling the drivers.

    I never thought to look on youtube. Great memories. Funny, I can't remember what I had for dinner a few days ago but I can remember the names of these drivers from 1992.

    Skip to 44:40 for the figure 8 races.

    @TK-422

    Are you into Dirt track racing ??? , I used to be the Head official for CDCRA "Calif Dwarf Car racing assoc" . Basically a 3/4 scale dirt track car running a 1000cc motorcycle engine . These cars were as fast as a sprint cars

    This is one of our races at Santa Maria speedway

    Nice video. Dirt tracks are cool. I used to like it when they ran the sprint cars at Saugus Speedway. Oh it's in Nipomo! Gotta get some Jocko's. That is where I first discovered a Santa Maria Pit BBQ.

    4 day weekend. It's our biggest holiday weekend for camping and day use but we're not working it this year. Camp spots are already 1/2 full as of yesterday afternoon. It's going to be a real shit show this year. I'm sure by Tuesday it'll be a wreck.
