Weedsport, NY<\/strong> \u2014 September 2, 2010 \u2013 By Tom Skibinski, DIRTcar Racing Northeast PR Director<\/strong><\/p>\n
In just one more month the City of Syracuse will roar to life as the 39th edition of Super DIRT Week at the New York State Fairgrounds moves to the forefront of the racing world.<\/p>\n
Not only will hundreds of campers once again converge on the historic \u201cMoody Mile\u201d for the annual autumn motorsports extravaganza, even more fans and racers arriving from out of state will be finding refuge during SDW XXXIX, Oct. 6-10, in the confines of downtown Syracuse.<\/p>\n
Continuing to embrace the area auto racing fraternity and its legion of loyal followers, a half-dozen hotels have teamed up with DIRTcar Racing Northeast to provide special guest packages that will remain in effect throughout the Columbus Day holiday.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve worked closer than ever before with city officials since our Big-Block Modifieds rolled through the streets of Syracuse in July,\u201d remarked Jeff Hachmann, Director of Marketing, Promotions and Sales for DIRTcar NE, alluding to the All-Star Weekend parade that showcased a handful of sleek Modified machines and attracted ample television coverage on this historic occasion.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe business community has come on board like never before in support of Super DIRT Week. Area hotels certainly understand the economic impact of our premier event better than most and are offering some outstanding room rates next month. Unlike during other peak season events, occupants won\u2019t be required to lock into a minimum number of nights they stay. And that\u2019s a great opportunity to take advantage of as October gets closer and rooms continue to fill up,\u201d Hachmann said.<\/p>\n
With the Holiday Inn Express in Warners, N.Y., designated as the host hotel for DIRTcar Racing staff and officials, the Crowne Plaza (Syracuse), Comfort Inn & Suites (2 locations in Syracuse), Candlewood Suites (N.Syracuse), and Maplewood Inn (Liverpool) are also featured lodges on stand-by to accommodate all Super DIRT Week room requests.<\/p>\n

Super DIRT Week kicks off in 2010 with Modified \u2018Happy Hour\u2019 on Wed., Oct. 6 and runs straight through Sunday with the Syracuse 200 Super DIRTcar Series Big-Block Modified Championship going green at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 10. The Syracuse 150 358-Modified Championship also gets under way at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 9, followed by the Sportsman Championship. The 25-lap SDW Pro Stock finale begins Sunday at noon.<\/p>\n
Hoosier Tire-VP Racing Fuels Mr. DIRTcar Championship Series point races remain a major part of Super DIRT Week as does Sprint Car racing in Central New York. The World of Outlaws \u2018King of the Mile\u2019 Dash is slated for Syracuse on Oct. 8 prior to the winged warriors traveling across town to Rolling Wheels Raceway Park in Elbridge for a Saturday night showdown.<\/p>\n
Headlining Fri., Oct. 8 cards are \u2018360 Sprint Car Challenge\u2019 and \u2018Parts Plus Big Six\u2019 Street Stock Series shows at Cayuga County Fair Speedway in Weedsport while another 358\/Sportsman doubleheader makes up the twilight program at Rolling Wheels, where the \u2018Win And You\u2019re In\u2019 Big-Block show accompanies the WoO Sprint Series special on Saturday.
