  • 2016 Super Dirtcar Series Schedule
    2016 Super DIRTcar Series schedule By MIKE MALLETT Over the weekend the World Racing Group and DIRTcar Northeast held its annual promoters meetings. During those meetings the 2016 Super DIRTcar Series tentative schedule was released and then later in the day released to the public at the National Parts Peddler trade show. While there weren’t many surprises on the schedule a few should pique the interest of racers and fans alike. The series returns to the Williams Grove Speedway on June 22 after not competing at the facility since 2006. The last time the tour visited the track the race was dominated by Heinke-Baldwin Racing driver Jimmy Phelps. The series also returns to Utica-Rome Speedway as part of a special week in July for both the Empire Super Sprints and the Super DIRTcar Series. The series pairs up with ESS for two shows during the week, one at Canandaigua Motorsports Park on June 30 and then at Utica-Rome on July 3. The Last Call at the Port Weekend and the Dual at the Demon have been combined into one weekend in mid-September on the 16 and 17. Brewerton Speedway host the series on Friday night before drivers head west on the New York State Thruway to Weedsport to compete on Saturday. The World Finals has also moved up a week coming in late October on the 27-29 rather than early in November. Here is a complete look at the TENTATIVE schedule for the Super DIRTcar Series big-block Modifieds. Feb 17 – Wed – Volusia Speedway Park (DIRTcar Nationals) Feb 18 – Thu – Volusia Speedway Park (DIRTcar Nationals) Feb 19 – Fri – Volusia Speedway

The event is sponsored by Bryan Bowman Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge of Seymour, IN and will take place at Brownstown Speedway in Brownstown, IN.

A large field of drivers from all over the country is expected to compete in the annual event with a strong group of both regional and national stars converging on the ¼ mile track. The LOLMDS first sanctioned the event at the Tim and Farrah Keithley-promoted Jackson County Fairgrounds facility in 2006 with 4- time series champion, Earl Pearson Jr. of Jacksonville, FL scoring the victory. Pearson has been joined by other current LOLMDS regulars Don O'Neal of Martinsville, IN, Terry Casey of New London, WI, Jimmy Owens of Newport, TN and last year's winner, Scott Bloomquist of Mooresburg, TN in taking home the Indiana Icebreaker trophy. Bloomquist will enter the race looking for his fourth consecutive win at the historic half-mile track. Bloomquist, who notched his 500th career win in the 2010 Jackson 100 at Brownstown, has captured the last two Jackson 100's and the 2011 Indiana Icebreaker. He is coming off of a season where he set a LOLMDS record for victories in one season with 15.
