The schedule sees 12 stock car racing events from the Victoria Day Long Weekend in May to the Labour Day Long Weekend in September. The track will see five racing classes comprise their championship point racing schedule with visits from four Maritime touring series, highlighted by the return of the East Coast International Pro Stock Tour. The Pro Stock, Street Stock, Outlaw, Mini Stock, and Bandolero divisions will all compete for track championships in 2022. The Pro Stock, Street Stock, and two Four Cylinder divisions will begin chasing their championships on Sunday, May 22nd with four drivers racing to the ultimate Prince Edward Island short track gold on Monday, September 5th. The Bandolero championship will begin on Sunday, May 29, and wrap up during the Maritime Street Stock Series 100 festivities on Saturday, August 27. Speaking of the Maritime Street Stock Series, the Oyster Bed Speedway portion of the five-race, five-track Series will return to the last Saturday of August after a successful debut in 2021. Jim Tingley (Turtle Creek, NB) scored a popular win in the 2021 edition that went the distance without a yellow flag. Oyster Bed Speedway is joined once again by the four New Brunswick paved ovals (Speedway Miramichi, Speedway 660, Petty Raceway, and CENTRE for Speed) in producing the marquee Street Stock Series. The East Coast International Pro Stock Tour will bring some touring series friends along with them on their pair of July visits in 2022. The Series will race on Saturday, July 2 for a 150-lap feature and will be flanked by the Maritime League of Legends Tour, Passione Flooring East Coast Mini Stock Tour, and the local Central Engine Services Street Stock division. The return of the Maritime Pro Stock Tour on Saturday, July 30 will see a second visit for both the Mini Stock and Legends Tour along with the Heart of a Champion Hot Rod Classics powered by Conrad Bros. Keeping with tradition, the season will start and end with the popular Demolition Derby events on May 22 and September 5. Last September, over three dozen drivers lined up to smash their way to the cash in one of the biggest events at the track in 2021. 2022 SCHEDULE – OYSTER BED SPEEDWAY DateStartEventDivisions Sunday, May 222 pmSeason Opener + Demolition DerbyPS, SS, OUT, MINI, Demolition Derby Sunday, May 292 pmChampionship Point RacingSS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, June 116 pmChampionship Point RacingPS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, June 256 pmChampionship Point RacingPS, SS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, July 2*6 pmEast Coast International Pro Stock TourMPST, MLOL, ECMST, SS Saturday, July 96 pmChampionship Point RacingSS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, July 166 pmChampionship Point RacingPS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, July 30*6 pmEast Coast International Pro Stock TourMPST, MLOL, ECMST, HOAC Saturday, August 66 pmChampionship Point RacingPS, SS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, August 206 pmChampionship Point RacingPS, SS, OUT, MINI, BN Saturday, August 27*6 pmMaritime Street Stock Series 100SS100, MINI, BN Monday, September 52 pmChampionship Finale + Demolition DerbyPS, SS, OUT, MINI, Demolition Derby Saturday, September 102 pmRAIN DATE IF NECESSARYRAIN DATE Saturday, September 172 pmRAIN DATE IF NECESSARYRAIN DATESchedule is subject to change without notice. *Pro Stock Tour dates and Maritime Street Stock Series 100 have a rain date of the next day (Sunday) at 2 pm.
