Mayfield might headline Caraway card

SOPHIA — Racing is scheduled to resume at Caraway Speedway on Saturday after a pair of scheduled idle weekends at the stock-car track.

The time off for drivers gave speedway officials a chance to see some construction projects in the works.

It’s also the lone 2025 stop at the speedway for the Grand National Super Series, with twin 50-lap races expected.

The Grand National Super Series held a race earlier this month at Orange County Speedway in Rougemont. Jeremy Mayfield, who was one of the winners during the Orange County Speedway card, and the former NASCAR Cup Series driver is atop the Grand National Super Series points standings.

There will be features for Limited Late Models, Chargers, Mini Stocks, UCARs, 602 Modifieds, Crown Vics / Bootleggers and Legends on Saturday’s docket.

Points leaders in the speedway’s classes include Matthew Smith in Chargers, Jimmy Cooper in UCARs, Bryson Brinkley in Limited Late Models, Joel Belanger in 602 Modifieds, Tyler Bush in Mini Stocks, and Steven Collins in Crown Vics / Bootleggers.

The UCARs standings are particularly tight with Cooper holding 1,142 points, Jeremy Kidd at 1,140 and Justin Smith at 1,106.

Saturday’s track activities are scheduled to begin earlier than normal at 5 p.m.
