A return to the Turning Stone Resort & Casino will officially bring to a close the 2009 race season as the popular entertainment complex in Verona, New York plays host to the 34th Annual DIRTcar Racing Northeast ‘Night of Champions’ Awards Banquet and Fall Promoters Meeting & Workshop on November 13-14.

The traditional post-season celebration among competitors, sponsors and officials will honor the top series drivers along with DIRTcar Northeast track champions, with a number of special awards handed out during the annual autumn affair.

DIRTcar Promoter meetings will run 9am-5pm on Friday with the awards banquet for Big-Block Modified, 358-Modified, Sportsman and Pro Stock championship teams set to take place the evening of Saturday, November 14.
