PLANO, Texas (May 8, 2020) – Although delayed, the ‘Texas Traveler’ T.J. Michael will finally activate his 2020 campaign, and despite the ongoing restrictions and social distancing orders put into place at the federal and state levels, tracks are doing everything they can to work within the parameters so their seasons can commence. Fortunately for Michael, one of those facilities is within reach.
Marysville Raceway in Marysville, California, roughly 40 miles north of the state capital, will open its gates to competitors on Saturday evening, May 9, and host 360 sprint car action. Even though the Marysville visit was not on the team’s original agenda, Michael will take full-advantage of the opportunity to drive for Clayton Snow Racing and ultimately work for a first-ever victory in the Golden State.
“With everything going on, we weren’t exactly sure if we’d ever get a chance to race with each other. Luckily for (Clayton Snow Racing) and I, Marysville was able to put a program together and I was on the first plane out of Texas,” Michael said, a Texas-native who spends his summers in Fremont, Ohio, while racing throughout the region for his family-owned team. “Clayton Snow Racing gave me a great opportunity at the beginning of the season. We were supposed to race upwards of 12 Outlaw shows during their West Coast Swing, that until things started to shut down. That’s OK, we’ll take things one race at a time and hopefully build a great relationship. I’m really excited to get started.”
Although spectators will not be permitted on the grounds at Marysville Raceway, fans are encouraged to watch online via www.speedshifttv.com. Coverage of the 360 sprint car headliner is expected to begin at 6 p.m. local time.
