38th Short Track Nationals this weekend in Texarkana
TEXARKANA, Ark.—The 38th Annual 38th Annual Short Track Nationals is set for this weekend, October 31 - November 1, 2025 at 67 Speedway of Texarkana.
What would have been the first STN in 2023 at Texarkana, was a total washout. Same for 2024. Promoter Tim Crawley stated that a lot of work has been completed in our pits and parking lot in hopes of withstanding some rain, but not the amounts received for the last two events. Mother nature has been on our side for most of this season, and we need mother nature on our side for this year’s Short Track Nationals, Crawley stated.
