UARA releases 2027 Sportsman schedule

UARA announced its 2027 Sportsman schedule last Saturday hours before the championship doubleheader weekend at Citrus County Speedway, with the aforementioned three-eighth mile oval slated to host five of twelve races next year, the most of any track by a substantial margin. Freedom Factory is next most at three races, hosting the season finale and Bigley Invitational race following season’s end.

One new track has been added to the schedule in Five Flags Speedway, the host of the Snowball Derby, although there is a curveball thrown in; Five Flags is the first of two races in their Gulf Coast Doubleheader on the 25th and 26th of June, sharing the weekend with Mobile International Speedway, which is only an hour west of the Pensacola staple.

UARA, led by president Ricky Brooks, have been making strong efforts toward this idea becoming reality, with all parties involved in the series sharing and expressing optimistic opinions, especially in regards to minimizing expenses on multiple levels over both nights.

Venues have been decided for 11 of 12 points races, with a soon to be announced location in the coming days, scheduled for June 5th, the last race before the previously explained “twin bill” weekend at Five Flags and Mobile.

UARA’s 2027 Sportsman season opener is at South Alabama Speedway on January 9th as a companion race the day prior to the postponed Frank Grill Memorial 112 that was originally scheduled for October 3rd.
