May 7th 2024: A new Speedway season this week starts this week at the Costa Mesa Speedway with the popular Harley night. Speedway if you are not familiar with it is motorcycles racing on a tight oval dirt track while people on the stadium watch on. The races are fast paced and, because of the tight track crashes as well as spills are not uncommon.
I grew up in England where speedway is more common, but for an amazing 54 years the races in Costa Mesa have drawn speedway fans to the OC Fair & Event Center. Apart from the speedway racers on their specialty motorcycles tonight there is also sidecar races which is always fun.
