SpeedFest began in 2005 at the now defunct USA International Speedway in Lakeland, FL before moving to Georgia’s Lanier National Speedway in 2009. SpeedFest then found its home at Cordele Georgia’s Watermelon Capital Speedway at Crisp Motorsports Park, now known as Cordele Motor Speedway, in 2012 and has been held there ever since. Some of the biggest names in motorsports have won SpeedFest including Kyle Busch, Chase Elliott, Harrison Burton, Chandler Smith, and Corey Heim. Bubba Pollard has won the last three SpeedFest events at the track.
Friday’s schedule will consist of practice and qualifying, with all features being run on Saturday afternoon. Sunday will be used as a rain date if necessary.
