The Clyde is absolutely thrilled that the Skias Family and The Pete Skias Foundation are bringing the Pistol Pete Duels back to the Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway in 2026! After the event got rained out in May, the Skias Family has rescheduled the race for Saturday, October 10th.
We will be remembering a legend, Pete Skias, with one of the biggest events of the year and the stakes will be high! 270 drivers will be pushing the limits for a massive payday: 3,008 to win!
The Racing Card is STACKED! The 270s will be supported by two fan-favorite classes guaranteed to deliver non-stop action: EVO Fuel Injection Winged 600 and Gretna Graphics 125/4 Strokes. The Winged 600s will be competing for $1,000 to win (35+ cars) and the 125/4 Strokes will be competing for a guaranteed $500 to win.
