Snowball Derby
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Snowball Derby is a 300-lap super late model stock car automobile race held annually at the half-mile Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola, Florida. The race has been contested every year since 1968 and is always run on the first weekend in December. The race has a reputation for attracting some of the bigger names in short track racing due to the fact that it is run after most tracks and touring series have concluded their seasons. Due to the “all-star” nature of the race, the Snowball Derby is considered by many to be the most prestigious race in late model racing.
