Friday Features Kiddies Rides at Scotia Speedworld August 30, 2018 Regional HALIFAX, NS – School is about to begin but this Friday kids get to take the front seat at Scotia Speedworld for Kiddie Rides Night presented by Fleet Brake Atlantic (formerly Pulse Heavy Duty). Gather up the kids and kick-off your long weekend with one of Scotia Speedworld’s most popular events – Kiddie Rides, where kids get the unique opportunity to go for a ride in a racecar with their favourite driver! Kiddie Rides get underway at 7:00 pm sharp so be sure to get there early. Grandstand gates open at 5:00 PM. The format for Kiddie Rides is simple and safe. Drivers bring their cars to the front stretch and park. Once all engines are stopped, the grandstand gate is opened and children come onto the track and climb into their favorite car. When all children are safely in the cars the drivers are led around the track at a safe speed by the pace car. After a few laps, the cars are stopped; the children climb out and proceed back to their seats in the grandstand to enjoy the rest of the night’s events. Following Kiddie Rides fans will enjoy great racing action from the CARSTAR Weekly Racing Series. Heating up the track will be the Affordable Fuels Sportsman, Toursec Thunder & Lightning cars and the Hydraulics Plus Bandoleros. Joining track Announcer Tim Terry in the booth Friday evening is multi-time Legend feature winner and fan favourite “Miss Rawdon Rocket” Emily Meehan. Admission is just $15.00 for Adults; Youth (8-15) are $5.00 and children 7 and under are free. Tickets are available at the gate on race day (cash only).
