Five Nights of Dacotah Speedway Racing

May 2026

The engines are revving and BEK TV is ready to roll. This spring, BEK TV is bringing five exciting nights of live dirt-track racing to screens across North Dakota as part of its growing commitment to local sports coverage.


BEK TV will broadcast five Dacotah Speedway races live from Mandan, beginning at 7pm CT on the following dates: May 1, 8, 15, 22, 29. Whether you're a lifelong racing fan or just discovering the thrill of dirt-track competition, these are five nights you won't want to miss.


Fans can catch every race live on BEK TV. Find your local channel by visiting the BEK TV Channel Guide. Races are also available to watch live or on-demand through the BEK TV+ app.


Spring weather in North Dakota can be unpredictable, but that's part of what makes this partnership so valuable. Even on a chilly early-season evening, fans can stay locked in on all the action from the comfort of home. Tune in, cheer on your favorite drivers, and experience the roar of the crowd, right from your living room.
