Original “Working Man’s Race” Short Track SuperNationals 8 Set For October 9-10 At I-88 Speedway; Short Track Super Series North Region Champion To Be Crowned; Two HUGE Days Of Racing Planned; Reserved Camping Available
AFTON, NY The original “Working Man’s Race” is set for its eighth running on Friday-Saturday October 9-10 at I-88 Speedway.
The Halmar International Short Track SuperNationals presented by Olum’s takes center stage at the Afton Fairgrounds facility during Columbus Day weekend, presenting weekend racers with an affordable option to compete for a large purse structure.
Headlining the weekend is a 50-lap main for the big-block/small-block Modifieds racing for a total payout of nearly $30,000, spread throughout the starting field, on Saturday. The Modified event offers $5,000 to the winner, $1,000 for 10th and $500 to take the green flag in addition to numerous other bonuses.
And the event takes on added incentive. The race is the eighth and final leg of the Bob Hilbert Sportswear North Region on the Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Hi-Tek, meaning a $15,000 champion will be crowned following the Modified main event and the top-12 drivers will set their positions to share in a $38,000-plus point fund.
The Short Track SuperNationals was founded in 2006 by Brett Deyo, partnering with Pat Jordan – then the promoter of Afton Speedway – to present the inaugural. Last year, the SuperNationals returned to the Afton Fairgrounds for the first time since that first running much to the delight of fans and competitors. The neat-and-tidy I-88 facility, complete with a flat and spacious pit area and camping with hookups, provides an ideal venue for the Short Track Super Series championship event.
Local driver Shaun Walker of Masonville, N.Y., led the list of winners at the SuperNationals last year, taking home the STSS Modified top prize! The win was the most lucrative of Walker’s career.
Again this year, I-88 promoters Jamie and Denise Page partner with Deyo to organize the program.
Saturday’s program will again be “split” with support division qualifying and other activities in the afternoon. The Modifieds will qualify and run their feature after a break.
Joining the Modifieds on Saturday will be the GRIT American Series Crate 602 Sportsman, XCel 600 Modifieds in a tour race, Empire Lightning Sprints and Vintage Modifieds in an exhibition.
Friday night will be topped with a 35-lap Open vs. Crate 602 Sportsman race paying $1,500 to win plus Crate 602 bonuses. Also racing on Friday are the XCel 600 Modifieds in a tour race, Empire Sport Trucks and FWD Four Cylinders.
Modifieds are invited to practice on Friday night. A Dash will be held for the fastest competitors, per the track transponder system, with the Dash winner earning a redraw starting spot in Saturday’s main event.
