Cocopah Speedway's new General Manager Benji Lyons announced racing will return to the track on Feb. 22-23 with the Winter Nationals.
Lyons made the announcement at a meet and greet press conference that was held Tuesday night at the Cocopah Wild River Family Entertainment Center.
Last week, the Cocopah Indian Tribe signed a three year lease agreement with Lyons who will oversee all track operations.
"Working with the Tribe has been perfect...from everything that I asked for...they are behind this deal as much as anybody...I want you to know how important that place (Speedway) is to the Tribe," Lyons said at the press conference.
