It's a tough proposition weather wise if you're a dirt racing fan this week. With saturated grounds and cold temps in the air at many locations, it might be a good weekend to stay in. And with the Triple Header on tap at Speedshift this weekend, there is something for everyone to check out while you're staying in! So peruse these fine choices, make a selection (we secretly wish for a three race package on Saturday while we toggle between races) and grab a six pack of your favorite beer, order in a pizza and partake in these great races. You literally can't go wrong with any of them.
