This past Saturday, the roar of Big Diamond Speedway moved from Forestville to Minersville for the first ever Parade of Power and Dirt Track Racing Festival.
Saturday's event was organized by Big Diamond Speedway track owners Jake and Jasmine Smulley, in conjunction with the Minersville Lions Club.
The event featured a racecar parade through town, followed by a car show, food trucks, DJ and remote control truck racing.
2022 will mark the 50th season of racing at the Big Diamond Speedway.
