NAPA Super DIRT Week XLIX, World Short Track Championship, Cavalcade Weekend and Northeast Fall Nationals highlight DIRTcar 358 Modified, Sportsman, and Pro Stock Series dates
WEEDSPORT, NY – DIRTcar Racing is gearing up for a full 2021 season, announcing 50 races across the DIRTcar 358 Modified Series, DIRTcar Sportsman Modified Series and DIRTcar Pro Stock Series.
Most Northeast race fans are familiar with the Super DIRTcar Series, its Big Block Modifieds, and its 31-race schedule. Now, all four of DIRTcar’s premier Northeast series are set to clash at race tracks across the region all season long, featuring the best drivers and tracks around.
The DIRTcar 358 Modified Series, DIRTcar Sportsman Modified Series — with four points regions plus the Fall Championship Challenge — and the DIRTcar Pro Stock Series have been contested for decades offering a high-level field of competition that nearly every Super DIRTcar Series star passed through during their career.
“The schedules for the 358 Modifieds, Sportsman Modifieds and Pro Stocks proved to be a challenge, but for good reasons,” said Dean Reynolds, DIRTcar Racing’s Director of Northeast Series and Sanctioning. “Tracks across the region wanted Series races, but the threat of COVID restrictions and border restrictions are still very real, so we had to move traditional dates to later in the year. That took some extra time to make sure there were no conflicts and the events worked for the tracks and competitors. We’re looking forward to a great season!”
The $20,000-to-win 150-lap NAPA Super DIRT Week on Saturday, Oct. 9, showstopper highlights the DIRTcar 358 Modified Series schedule. The always-exciting 358s show up in droves at Oswego Speedway, with 83 drivers attempting to qualify through Time Trials in the previous running of NAPA Super DIRT Week.
$10,000 is up for grabs at Brockville Speedway the following week on Saturday, Oct.16. The Northeast Fall Nationals is included in the Fall Championship Challenge, which marks the final points-paying 358 race of the year.
The series trail takes the 358s to Can-Am Speedway, Mohawk International Raceway, Weedsport Speedway, and Brewerton Speedway. All DIRTcar 358 Modified Series races pay $4,000-to-win or more.
Also on the schedule, but with dates to be announced, is a return to Quebec to race at Autodrome Drummond and Le RPM Speedway.
The DIRTcar Pro Stock Series is back in 2021 with a 10-race schedule including eight points-paying races and two non-points specials at The Dirt Track at Charlotte as a part of the Drydene World Short Track Championship.
The schedule includes a diverse mix of tracks in Quebec, Ontario, and New York. Autodrome Granby, Glen Ridge Motorsports Park, Cornwall Motor Speedway, Can-Am Speedway, Weedsport Speedway, Mohawk International Raceway, and Oswego Speedway make up the challenging schedule.
When it comes to DIRTcar Sportsman Modifieds, they are great in quality as well as quantity. The success of the division has laid the foundation to grow the Series into four regions: North, East, West, and Central. After the region points conclude, the Series unites for the Fall Championship Challenge which spans Outlaw Weekend at Fulton Speedway, NAPA Super DIRT Week, and the Northeast Fall Nationals at Brockville Ontario Speedway.
