GET READY FOR THE BIGGEST FAN APPRECIATION NIGHT OF THE SUMMER THIS SATURDAY, JULY 18TH!
The engines are roaring, the points battles are intensifying, and this weekend is all about YOU.
This Saturday, July 18th, Latrobe Speedway is hosting our annual Fan Appreciation Night. It is traditionally one of the biggest, highest-energy, and most action-packed nights of the entire season—and we want you and your family right there in the middle of it!
Whether you’re a lifelong dirt racing die-hard or looking for an exciting, affordable weekend plan for the family, this is the one night you absolutely cannot miss.
👉 GO TRACKSIDE: THE FRONT STRETCH MEET & GREET
Have you ever wanted to stand on the clay, look up at the high banks, and see a real race car up close? Here is your chance!
During our trackside intermission, we are opening up the fence and inviting EVERYONE down to the front stretch.
-
Meet the Drivers: Get autographs, take photos, and meet the drivers of the Fast Five!
-
Team Giveaways: Most of our race teams will have awesome, unique giveaway items, hero cards, and treats ready for the kids.
-
Door Prizes Galore: We will be drawing random door prizes from our local partners to hand out to lucky fans in the grandstands throughout the entire night!
🏆 THE FAST FIVE & KIDS POWER WHEELS
Once the meet-and-greet wraps up, the track clears and the battles begin. We are past the halfway mark of the 2026 season, which means the “Fast Five” championship hunt is getting intense. Every single point matters, and nobody is playing nice anymore.
Watch five incredible divisions battle it out on the dirt:
-
Crate Late Models
-
Pure Stocks
-
Modified 4 Cylinders
-

Plus, the crowd-favorite Kids Power Wheels Champion races will be taking over the track! Come cheer on the next generation of racers!
