We are pleased to announce that we are beginning to plan our 2nd annual “Salute the Military” Day at the Barona Race Track! The 2009 event was such a huge success that we’ve been asked to do it again in 2010! What a perfect way to celebrate Armed Forces Day! Thank you again to our 2009 sponsors! Your donations & contributions helped make the event possible. Additionally, we’d like to thank the racers for putting on such a spectacular show! We hope you’ll be joining us again in 2010!

Featured on Speed Scene Live!

For those who are not familiar with the event, we’d like to invite you to participate this year. Over 1,000 of our military family members were treated to a day of racing, a car show, BBQ, children’s activities, and took home souvenirs such as event tee shirts & family photos. Live music entertainment was also provided by a Rockabilly band and Country singer, Danielle Tucker, sang our National Anthem while the Miramar Color Guard was presenting colors. More than 100 of the fastest cars in Southern California competed in the racing, and even the stars of the Speed channel’s “Drag Race High” came out to join in the fun with us. In addition to benefitting our military families, all proceeds were donated to the Naval Special Warfare Foundation (NSWF). This event is perfect for adults and children of all ages.

This website was designed to provide our sponsors, race participants, and our military families with Race Day information.

Just a quick note, you have to be a 7.0 or faster to run that day....so they say. Last year, they let alot of cars that werent that fast run though.

Also, Orange was accepted to run in this. Cheer him on if you make it there.
