In 2006, it was announced that the track would race on Saturday evenings, a switch that proved well with an increase in car counts for each division.

Paul McMahan won the inaugural event, after three-time series champ Sammy Swindell had a tire issue with a few laps remaining.

2010 WoO Champion Jason Meyers ran the fastest lap ever recorded on the small track with a time of 10.923 seconds.

The series brought in thousands of fans - upwards of 3500 - which is likely the biggest crowd ever to watch an event at the speedway.
