Stock car racing and boat trailer racing is happening this weekend at the Contra

On Saturday, check out the stock car racing at the Speedway. Gates open at 5 p.m. and racing begins at 6:30. This event will consist of heat races for all divisions – Dirt Modifieds, Hobby Stocks and 4 Bangers.
On Sunday, see the demolition and destruction of the boat trailer races and
