Matthew Lloyd Racing unveils 2025 preliminary schedule
LITTLE ROCK, Iowa (February 4, 2025) -- As a team, we've released a preliminary schedule for the season, and we can't wait to get started.
As a group, our biggest goal is to see and experience new places in 2025, and just race a lot more! We want to race at a minimum of 6 different race tracks, and race around 18 nights this season. Because of these factors, we've all got our sights set on a travelling series schedule, and piecing some local races in where we've got time.
Our first and top scheduling priority in 2025 is going to be the AJC Kart Series. Our partners at MyRacePass have worked with Adam to get a professional and awesome looking website, and in those conversations it's become obvious that Adam is a guy who's investing in supporting the future of our support in the right way. He's the type of guy and this is the type of series we are excited to follow. The first big draw to the series is the format. With qualifying, a heat race invert, and a dash lining up the features, this has the feel of a bona-fide sprint car format, something that we really resonate with. It's the perfect format, in our eyes. Secondly, the diversity of race track within a reasonable footprint. The AJC Kart Series schedule is as follows:
May 2-4; a 3-day race weekend at Golden Spike Speedway
May 23-25; a 3-day race weekend in Brookings, SD for the "South Dakota State Championships!" We may have to miss the Saturday portion of this event for a wedding.
June 20-21; a 2-day race weekend next door to one of our favorite "big" tracks in the country, Cedar Lake Speedway. This event is dubbed the "Iron Man Shootout"
July 18-19; This one at the Poplar Grove Speedway in Kamrar, IA.
August 29-31; Back at Golden Spike for their championship 3-day weekend.
We will have to miss one of these shows due to a wedding, but we'll make the others!
In May, our schedule will consist entirely of AJC weekends.
May 2 & 3 at Golden Spike Speedway in Blue Earth, MN
May 23 & 25 at University Plains Speedway in Brookings, SD
In June, we have four total nights of racing planned so far.
June 7 at Kee Kart Speedway in Cherokee, IA
June 20 & 21 at Cedar Lake Indoor Arena in New Richmond, WI for more AJC series action
June 28th at Golden Spike Speedway in Blue Earth, MN
In July we have three races planned.
July 18th & 19th at Poplar Grove Speedway in Kamrar, IA
July 26th at Kee Kart Speedway in Cherokee, IA
For August we have three dates planned so far.
August 16th at Plessis Motor Speedway in Hartley, IA
August 29, 30, & 31 at Golden Spike Speedway in Blue Earth, MN
In September we also have our eyes on the Bullring Nationals at Plessis Motor Speedway on Sept. 27.
This is a 16 race schedule, so we may add more as time allows. Make sure to check out MatthewLloydRacing.com for our complete schedule, and also check out our shirt apparel and look fresh for 2025!
We can't wait to see everyone at the track.
