Reno - Fernley Speedway is about 20 miles east of Reno NV in the small town of Fernley. Bought last year by the head guy at the King of the West Sprintcar Series it is their new home track. KWS was not running there last night they were in Tulare. They also have a local low cost limited sprintcar series that runs there on a regular basis.

Local TV reported that two drivers were killed in a large crash involving several cars.

Very sad, thoughts and prayers to the families and all involved...

Apparently the accident involved dwarf cars, not sprint cars. No less tragic however
