2014 Monster Energy World Speedway Date

For the second year, the Monster Energy World Speedway Invitational will bring some of the world’s fastest riders to California.

And on Wednesday, Industry Racing – the event promoter – announced the date; this year’s Speedway Invitational will occur at 7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 28, at The Grand Arena in the City of Industry, Calif.

Sixteen riders will compete in the Arena, the group lead by last year’s winner – Billy Janniro.

Kelly Inman (Industry Racing Director) says: “Last year’s Monster Energy World Speedway Invitational was a landmark event for Speedway racing in America. We hosted a sold out event that showcased the worlds best talent in competitive races throughout the night.
