CHARLOTTE, N.C. (October 6, 2017)- SST officials have announced for the inaugural Stadium SUPER Trucks World Championship Finals to take place Friday, December 15 and Saturday, December 16 at Lake Elsinore Diamond Stadium located in no other than the World Capital of Action Sports; Lake Elsinore, California.
“The 2017 SST World Championship fight has been contested in three unique countries; United States, China and Australia, on nine different race tracks, with four completely different surfaces. It’s only fitting to decide the tight Championship fight with a thrilling Stadium battle in the birthplace of Stadium racing (Southern California), just like how Stadium Truck Pioneer Mickey Thompson would want to see it.” Stated Stadium SUPER Trucks President Robby Gordon.
Lake Elsinore, California a city where short-course off-road, motocross, FMX, and the UTV industry all collide on a daily basis provides the perfect location to host the SST World Championship Finals.
Mayor of Lake Elsinore, Bob Magee voiced the cities excitement for the newly announced Stadium SUPER Trucks World Championship Finals.
“The City of Lake Elsinore is thrilled to have Legendary Racer Robby Gordon and Stadium SUPER Trucks back in our valley. Working in partnership with the Lake Elsinore Storm, Diamond Stadium will be transformed into an off road playground as these high horsepower trucks will fly over jumps and bang fenders. This will be good clean dirty fun!”
Built in 1994 for the Single-A affiliate of Major League Baseball’s San Diego Padres, Lake Elsinore Diamond Stadium home of the Lake Elsinore Storm will be completely transformed from a baseball diamond to a off-road playground with nearly 150,000 square feet of dirt hauled in, and sculpted into a challenging off-road track featuring multiple obstacles such as a huge container crossover jump, that will send the trucks souring into the air nearly 35 feet.
“Everyone at Storm Events are super stoked to be working with the legendary Robby Gordon and bringing Stadium SUPER Trucks to Lake Elsinore. This is a perfect fit for our demographic and fans. It’s sure to be an amazing event that no one will want to miss.” Stated Ian Singleton, Director of Storm Events.
Joining the highflying Stadium SUPER Trucks on the track will be a full field of Production 1000 UTV’s. Quickly becoming one of the most popular, and most affordable forms of off-road racing today. Drivers of all ages, and experience levels will compete for a huge purse both Friday and Saturday night under the lights.
Young Hot Shots in the Modified Trophy Kart ranks will also have an opportunity to race on a similar track to the SST Stars. Past Modified Kart graduates have stepped into SST's with great success most notably being Sheldon Creed a two-time SST Champion.
Current SST’s drivers Gavin Harlien and Jeff Hoffman both developed their off-road skills in Modified Trophy Karts, before moving up to the larger scale trucks. With these young Trophy Kart racers having the opportunity to race in front of their piers and heroes it ought to be a memory to last a lifetime.
Not just the young Modified Trophy Karts drivers will have their opportunity to tackle the temporary built SST track. During the day on Friday and Saturday make sure to come out to the track early as SST would like to showcase the kids 170 UTV’s on the Stadium floor. Drivers qualified during the day’s races will be invited to compete in a Final event that evening.
The Stadium SUPER Trucks World Championship Finals is not just action-packed racing on track, make sure to come out to the track early each day as a full off-road and life style village will be happening throughout the day.

About SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks
Influenced by the former Mickey Thompson Stadium Off-Road Racing Series, where drivers such as Gordon, Casey Mears and seven-time NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson got their start, Gordon created SST in response to the public’s overwhelming interest in trucks and off-road racing. His plan to re-launch the former stadium series has led to exciting racing on both asphalt and dirt, while producing one of the most extreme forms of action sports today.
Other than the trucks launching 20 feet in the air covering distances more than 150 feet, what sets the SST program apart from other series is the fact that all the SST trucks are identically prepared and delivered to drivers in race-ready condition. Race winners are decided by driver skill rather than individual team engineering and budgets. Drivers and their personal mechanics are assigned specific SST mechanics who together tune and make minor adjustments to the 600-horsepower trucks.

I pulled up images of the Diamond Stadium at Lake Elsinore, it's a fricking Top Notch baseball field. This is going to be interesting, can't wait to see the track layout. We can pretty much exclude the high speed ramp launch, going to be more technical IMO.

This looks like just a "one-off" deal not necessarily a return to stadiums.
