(Eastaboga, AL – July 11, 2025) – Due to the overwhelming number of rainouts this season, officials at "The Hornet's Nest" are working tirelessly to adjust the racing calendar and add events to make up for lost track time. In a proactive move to get back on track—literally and figuratively—this week’s event has been rescheduled to Saturday, July 12th, instead of the originally planned Friday night.
Originally slotted as a rare Friday night show, the decision was made to bump the event back one day to allow the originally scheduled kart race on Saturday to proceed as planned. Fans and teams can now mark their calendars for an action-packed Saturday night of racing!
Updated Event Details:
Date: Saturday, July 12, 2025
Gates Open: 5:00 PM
Hot Laps: 7:00 PM
Location: Talladega Short Track - Eastaboga, AL
This show will feature a FULL racing program, although there will not be any make-up features from earlier rainouts, due to the quick turnaround and late addition to the schedule.
