Ultra4 - Battle in Bluegrass (Bowling Green, KY) East Series (4/19-4/20)

[ridered3]

Ultra4 will be hosting their first ever race at the Beech Bend Raceway area (same site as LS/Ford/Mopar Fest) in Bowling Green, KY the weekend of 4/19-4/20. It's going to be a very spectator friendly, 1.5 mile course with heat races all leading up to the various class main events.

We plan to come up to spectate the races, but not sure if we will take the easy route of a hotel in Bowling Green or take the enclosed up to stay at Beech Bend campground for the weekend.

Anyone from here planning to go spectate or race? We plan to come spectate and bring along our little dude (3yo) for his birthday weekend.

Wow. I was counting on that.

Wow. I was counting on that.

Yeah I think it’s super short sighted. Least they could do is have a single camera with announcer just saying what’s happening.

No livestream of the races this weekend.

talk about missed opportunity...

talk about missed opportunity...

No kidding there. Having zero coverage is bad for the race/sport. Having a small livestream is better than no livestream.

Thanks

Thanks

Not a problem. Rumor has it (from the two highest ranking sources), they’ll be returning back to this track next year. They want the race to occur after the amusement park opens so sometime after May 1st.

Mighty good times at the races. Got to enjoy lots of great action and see lots of racer buddies. Will post more pictures later.

Just wanted to take a quick moment to give a shout out to all the parties involved with the 2024 Battle in Bluegrass Presented by Holley Off-Road, for pulling off a great event over the weekend!

Track was awesome, spectator areas were outstanding, and the on-track racing was excellent! Really enjoyed the layout of the racer pit areas as it made interaction much simpler and more natural.

While everything race related was most excellent, the interactions and stuff my little dude got from all the racers was outstanding! He now assumes all racers have things to give him beyond just stickers and I am certainly one proud dad to have all these awesome things from "dad's cool racing friends!" His bedroom is going to have so many horsepressures once everything gets hung on the walls and stickers on his dresser/toolbox!
