ARCA returns to the high banks

The cars and stars of the ARCA Menards Series make their return to the high banked Salem Speedway, for the Herr’s Snacks 200 Saturday, October 1st. The ARCA Menards Series has a deep rooted history at Salem dating back to the 60’s-70’s. ARCA has continuously come back to Salem Speedway ever since 1992 missing just one race due to COVID in 2020.

ARCA has had a spectacular 2022 season with improved car counts, multiple winners, and exciting finishes. They look to their next to last race of the season to get closer to settling the points battle that has lingered at the top of the leaderboard all year. Nick Sanchez and Daniel Dye find themselves separated by just 5 points heading into Salem. With Rajah Caruth, not out of the race yet, in 3rd and just 30 points behind the two front runners.

Sanchez and Caruth are both part of the NASCAR Drive for Diversity program. Both stars have shown incredible skill in honing their talents and both are expected to move higher into the ranks of motorsports in the coming years.

Salem always leaves fans on the edge of their seat from the character of the High Banks in turn 1 and 2 to the electric speeds we see these wheelmen reach throughout the race! Expect to see more of the same as ARCA Menards Series make their return to the High Banks Saturday, October 1st.
