Only a few precious nights of racing remain and we can assure you that the 2010 season at Colorado National Speedway is gonna go out with a BANG! If you've been with us since April, you know the competition has been fierce all season long. Avants, Hults and Yackey have been in a three way battle for the Late Model championship. Love him or hate him, Happy Ferree is always a fun spectacle to watch and is only 2 points from taking the Pro Truck division point lead. The Sportsman, Super Stocks, Figure 8s and Legends have brought out strong numbers and serious competition every week. And everyone's favorite crazy Trains and Buses are dented, smashed and missing plenty of body panels thanks to their weekly presence.

Everything is on the line this month and we're poised to go out with a BANG! The greatest drivers in the state of Colorado will hit the track for the final 5, most intense races of the 2010 racing season at Colorado National Speedway. You've Gotta Be Here!!!
