It's been a pretty happening summer of racing here in the Maritimes. We started off with Regan Smith and David Reutimann in the 250 lap event at Riverside Speedway in Antigonish, Nova Scotia.
Tommorrow night Ken Schrader is strapping into a Sportsmen class stock car at Scotia Speedworld in Halifax, Nova Scotia for a 50 lap event, plus heats...
From Checkerstowreckers.com: NASCAR driver Ken Schrader will go from a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series ride at Bristol Motor Speedway Wednesday night to this sportsman car at Scotia Speedworld Friday night.
Schrader will race in the sportsman division Friday night at Scotia Speedworld in a car out of the Scott Alexander's Dartmouth race shop.
The Friday Weekly Racing Series show at Scotia Speedworld will also feature the Bandolero, Thunder, Lightning and Legends divisions as well as a one-hour autograph session featuring Ken Schrader.

And then on Labour Day weekend at Speedway 660 in Geary, New Brunswick, the maritimes best stock car racers battle with Sterling Marlin in an annual prostock 250 lap event.
From Speedway660.com: All the way from Tennessee to the Geary Woods! Two Time Daytona 500 Champion Sterling Marlin has announced his intentions to enter the 9th Annual Peterbilt 250 at Speedway 660. Marlin will join a strong list of Southern Stars who have competed in the Labour Day Classic.

“I’m excited; these home grown short track events are what our sport was built on. This is a huge race for the Atlantic region and I’m really looking forward to racing the best up there!” said Sterling in a phone interview.
