See You At The Races!!!

 Firecracker

The Firecracker is a tradition on the West Coast. Regarded by many fans as the best way to celebrate Independence Day, the race still draws some of the largest crowds and car counts of the year.

From Ascot Park to Perris Auto Speedway, this race is one to mark on your calendar.

Event winners include Bob Hogle, Billy Vukovich, Jimmy Oskie, Dean Thompson, Bubby Jones, Rip Willliams, Ron Shuman, Brad Noffsinger, and Cory Kruseman.
