# Event Details

- **Event Name**: 48th Regular Season Opener - Herb Scott Memorial
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The gates swing open and the season comes alive at Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Motor Speedway as the 48th season of racing kicks off.

Engines fire and echo through the valley. The smell of race fuel hangs in the air. Cars dive into the corners door to door, side by side, with drivers leaning on the edge of control as the clay slings off the tires and they rip through the turns. It’s loud, it’s fast, and it doesn’t let up.

At the center of it all is a matchup that sets the tone for the year. The RUSH Late Model Touring Series comes to town to take on the Rohrich Parts Center & Chevrolet Performance RUSH Late Model weekly competitors. The touring teams bring experience from across the region. The weekly drivers know every inch of this place. Nobody gives an inch when the season is just getting started.

The rest of the program keeps the pace moving all night:

Penn Ohio Pro Stocks
The Auto House Hobby Stocks
Crawford Auto Repair Four Cylinders
Kehm Oil Young Guns

Every division brings something different. Tight racing, contact, momentum swings, and drivers looking to make a statement right out of the gate.
