The National Compact Touring Series presented by Rev X is set to bring high-octane, rule-breaking action to Galesburg Speedway on Sunday, August 24th at 6:00PM, for a newly added event — Battle at the Burg.
This special event is part of the Hoosier Racing Tire Bull Ring Challenge Series, which saw three of its four scheduled races washed out due to weather. In response, the series and Galesburg Speedway management teamed up to create a can’t-miss night of grassroots racing.
Headlining the night will be the National Compact Touring Series, which for this one-time event will throw out the traditional rulebook. That’s right — aside from mandatory safety equipment, anything goes. Expect creative builds, aggressive racing, and a whole lot of surprises.
Joining the action-packed card are the Compact Figure 8’s and the thrilling, no-holds-barred Race of Doom Enduro. Fans can also enjoy off-track fun like Power Wheel Races for the kids, a Coin Toss, and Spectator Drags — making this a true community night at the speedway.
📍 Schedule:
Pit Gates Open – 3:30PM
Practice – 4:30PM
Racing Begins – 6:00PM
Drew Jach, Series Promoter, shared his excitement:
“We wanted to give our drivers and fans something completely different — something wild. With most of the Bull Ring Challenge dates rained out, this was the perfect opportunity. Galesburg Speedway jumped in with full support, and we’re turning this into a night you won’t forget. No tech sheet, no whining — just good, old-fashioned racing with safety first and fun a close second.”
Come out and see some of the most creative, unpredictable racing in the country. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just looking for a fun night out with the family, Battle at the Burg has something for everyone.
