  NARC SPRINT CARS HEAD TO PLACERVILLE FOR $5000 TO WIN DAVE BRADWAY JR. MEMORIAL RACE ON SATURDAY

  (5/30/23) Placerville, CA ... Action and tradition will meet each other on Saturday, June 3rd, when the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series returns to Placerville Speedway. A $5,000 payday will go to the driver who can slay the field of the 32nd Annual Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial. This will be the only time you will see the fire-breathing mudslinging monsters of the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series at "Little Knoxville On The Hill" in 2023. The popular event features a lucrative payday and pays tribute to an incredible driver, Dave Bradway Jr., who tragically passed away in a racing accident in June of 1987 at Skagit Speedway. The event was initially held at Silver Dollar Speedway from its inception in 1991 until it was relocated to Placerville in 2021. Several additional prizes are up for grabs, including $5,200 in additional lap money, $1,100 for a quick time, $650 for the hard charger, and much more. "I'm excited to get back to Placerville," commented driver Corey Day of Clovis, the defending race winner. "It's such a cool place and it's really good for racing. There is no place like it, so to be good there and win there is cool too. I was pumped to win (the Bradway) last year, and it'd be great to win it in the (Jason Meyers Racing) #14 this year." All of the top cars and stars of the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series will be in attendance, as well as several Placerville Speedway regulars. The facility is an action-filled quarter-mile clay oval with high banks that will take your breath away every single lap. The Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial weekend kicks off with the Sprint Car Challenge Tour 360 sprint cars on Friday night. The NorCal Dwarf Cars will be the companion division both nights. Championship Chase An electric points battle is raging for the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series points championship. Day continues to reign atop the standings, holding a slim eight-point margin over two-time defending series champion Dominic Scelzi of Fresno. With a large slate of events on the June docket, it will undoubtedly play a significant factor in determining who will be crowned the King of the West in November. Day is chasing his first-ever NARC title. Both pilots have three wins to their credit this season, and both have yet to finish outside of the Top 10. However, Scelzi has been scorching hot lately, as he has visited victory lane the last two times that the tour has run and three out of the last four. He was fifth at this event last year and won it in 2021. Who to Watch Justin Sanders, who has five top-five finishes to his credit this season. is still looking for that first win of 2023 with the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series. The Aromas racer always runs well at Placerville, with two 360 Sprint Car wins at Placerville this season. Sanders is the 2019 winner of this event, the last time it was held in Chico. Shane Golobic has won several crown jewel events in California, but the Fremont native has yet to win the coveted Bradway trophy. Last year Golobic was third when the checkered flag dropped and is looking for his first NARC win this season. Besides Day and Scelzi, Roseville's Justyn Cox is the only other feature winner on the NARC tour this season. He is currently fourth in the points standings after claiming the lucrative Dennis Roth Classic in April and posting six top ten finishes. Campbell veteran Bud Kaeding wants to build off his incredible second-place effort at Petaluma in the most recent NARC race. Kaeding was the 2015 winner of this event, and there is no doubt that the iconic BK Racing team is hungry for another Bradway trophy to add to the case. Andy Forsberg is the defending track champion at Placerville Speedway. Despite all his Placerville success, like Golobic, Forsberg has yet to win the Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial. However, the Auburn veteran is coming off his best run of the current campaign with the tour, as he posted a fifth-place finish at Petaluma on May 20th. No doubt, another favorite that the Placerville crowd will be roaring for is Michael Faccinto. The Hanford driver drives the #X1 entry owned by Alan Bradway and Steve Tuccelli. Faccinto has had some strong runs in the 360 Sprints with the local Placerville scene and will look to apply that experience on Saturday night. Despite a limited schedule, Willie Croft is a driver you don't want to discount. Now residing in Colfax, Croft collected a Bradway win in 2018 and boasted an impressive fourth-place performance at Petaluma a couple of weeks ago despite being out of the race car for nearly two months. He has earned the Mike Avilla fast time award at the event for five-years running. Also running will be Penngrove's Chase Johnson, Billy Aton of Benicia, Tucson native Nick Parker, Oakley teenager Dylan Bloomfield, Joey Ancona of Concord, Roseville driver's Colby Copeland, Ryan Bernal and Sean Becker, Kaleb Montgomery from Templeton, and many more! PAST RACE HISTORY: Jonathan Allard has accumulated the most Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial wins in the race's storied existence. The Chico chauffeur, now living in New Zealand, has won the Bradway five times over the years, with the most recent achievement in 2012.

  PETER MURPHY CLASSIC: BIG MONEY ON THE LINE FOR THE NARC SPRINT CARS THIS WEEKEND

  (5/8/23) Hanford, CA ... The NARC 410 Sprint Car Racing Series, presented by NAPA Auto Parts, will head to Kings Speedway on Friday and Saturday, May 12-13th for the highly-anticipated Peter Murphy Classic. This will be the second trip of the season to the exciting 3/8-mile clay oval located in Hanford, CA. Up for grabs will be a stout $11,000 payday to the winner of Saturday night's 30-lap headliner finale. With that kind of money on the line, this two-day extravaganza will reel in the full NARC roster and attract some heavy hitters from outside the region. "I'm so excited for this weekend," commented Peter Murphy, promoter of Kings Speedway, "This is a major collaboration with my team here at Kings and all the wonderful sponsors and supporters that contribute to making it happen. It's always great to have NARC in town; this place has done some fantastic contests. This is a weekend you do not want to miss, and make sure to BRING A FRIEND!" Originating in 2015, The Peter Murphy Classic, or PMC, is a race honoring Kings Speedway promoter Peter Murphy. Murphy is originally from the Sydney, New South Wales, Australia area but now calls Clovis home. He's achieved eight NARC 410 Sprint Series wins from 2001 to 2013. Wins with the series include the 2011 Tribute to Gary Patterson and Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial. Murphy has also had a decorated career in Non-Wing competitions throughout the Central Valley. Friday's show will also feature the Kings of Thunder 360 sprint cars. The Sprint Car Challenge Tour 360's will join the program on Saturday. Fresno's Dominic Scelzi is the defending champion of the event after sweeping both nights in an intense open wheel battle in 2022. The timing of the Peter Murphy Classic might be perfect as Scelzi added his name to the 2023 NARC winner's list for the first time two-weeks ago at Antioch Speedway. That ended an uncharacteristic long winless streak dating back to May 2022 for the 20-time NARC winner. "Momentum doesn't always mean success, but I feel we have to be one of the favorites every single night," said Scelzi, the two-time defending NARC champion. "Even if we start deep (in the field), we've shown we can win and contend every night." "The Peter Murphy Classic has been great for us as we've won the last four Peter Murphy 410 races," Scelzi continued. "We got them both in 2021 and 2022. I just feel confident the more money on the line and the hotter the weather. My 41 team is ready to go." With temperatures expected to be in the 80's, Scelzi has all the incentives needed to continue his domination of the event. Other previous winners of the Peter Murphy Classic include Campbell's Bud Kaeding, Shane Golobic of Fremont, Rutherford's Rico Abreu, and Texas driver Aaron Reutzel. A full field of cars is expected to chase the lucrative purse which includes a guaranteed $1000 in starting money for Saturday's A-Main. Who to Watch Current NARC 410 Sprint Car Series championship point leader Corey Day returns to Kings after his triumphant efforts at April 8th NARC season opener at the track. The Clovis teenager has yet to finish off the podium in 2023 and is on a streak of two consecutive second-place results. He currently holds a 562-549 point advantage over Aromas driver Justin Sanders. Scelzi is another two points behind. Jonathan Allard is expected to make his 2023 debut with the NARC series. The three-time series champion, originally from Chico and now calling Waimauku, Auckland, New Zealand home, has four Kings Speedway wins since 2001, including last year's Morrie Williams Memorial. He has 41 NARC King of the West victories on his career resume. Hanford's D.J. Netto is always a threat to win on his home track. The 2019 series champion has already enjoyed a pair of 360 victories this season and hopes to carry that hot streak to his first PMC win. He has six NARC wins to this credit. Even though Roseville's Colby Copeland is not chasing NARC championship points, he is a driver to be watched at Kings Speedway. He "quietly" finished in the runner-up spot at both events of the Peter Murphy Classic last season and always steps up his game at big shows. Also looking to pocket a big payday are Chase Johnson of Penngrove, Dennis Roth Classic winner Justyn Cox from Roseville, Ryan Bernal from Hollister, current Rookie of the Year point leader Joey Ancona of Concord, Oakley teenager Dylan Bloomfield, Campbell veteran Bud Kaeding, Kaleb Montgomery of Templeton, Sebastopol's Joel Myers Jr., Tanner Holmes from Oregon, Tucson, Arizona's Nick Parker, Benicia's Billy Aton, Sparks, Nevada traveler Bill Smith, and many more!
