MARA Opens 2026 Season Tonight At Lincoln Speedway In Illinois

The Midget Auto Racing Association opens their 2026 season tonight, Friday, April 24, at Lincoln Speedway in Illinois. They were to start the campaign three weeks prior at their home track but mother nature had other ideas.

BadgerRacing.TV will have all the action live if you can't be in the stands.

The ensuing four weeks will find the famed club busy with races scheduled every Friday through May 22. After tonight, the venues are as follows for the next four weeks:

Coles County Speedway (Mattoon, IL), May 1.

Davenport Speedway (Davenport, IA) Co-Sanctioned with AFS Badger Midget Series, May 8.

Lincoln Speedway (Lincoln, IL), May 15.

Jacksonville Speedway (Jacksonville, IL), May 22.

For the quickest and official information fans and teams are encouraged to check with the media outlets of each track. MARA will pass on race day information as it is provided.

Most time-sensitive posts are on Facebook at MARA Racing and then on the club's website www.mararacing.com
