Story By: CAMDEN PROUD / OSWEGO SPEEDWAY – OSWEGO, NY – With the 2024 season right around the corner, excitement has ramped up for the 350 Supermodified division as the Star and Oswego Speedways have joined forces to form a four race mini-series with a pair of events each at the eastern New Hampshire and northern New York ovals.
Both the Star and Oswego Speedway continue to be united under the same rules package, with the goal of ensuring fair competition and maximizing potential for close, competitive racing.
A major change for 2024 is the introduction of Hoosier Racing Tires at Star Speedway. This will mark the first time since the division’s inception at Oswego in 2018 that both tracks are utilizing the same tire manufacturer.
“We’re excited to team up with Star Speedway for this new mini-series that will unite the top 350 Super drivers from both tracks,” said Oswego race director, Chuck Handley. “We expect intense competition and higher car counts at both tracks, so race fans and drivers are in for an exciting season.”
As part of honoring the legacies of Bob Webber Sr. and Jim Martel, further announcements can be expected regarding bonuses aimed at supporting the teams and boosting 350 Supermodified racing in New England and New York.
Fans and participants are encouraged to stay tuned for more updates and announcements leading up to the season opener. With the combined efforts of Star and Oswego Speedways, the future of 350 Super racing is in good hands.
Oswego Speedway’s 73rd season of racing will take the green flag on Saturday, May 25th, with the 75-lap Jim Shampine Memorial for Novelis Supermodifieds, 35-lap Tony White Memorial for Pathfinder Bank SBS, and a 30-lap Memorial Day Weekend special for J&S Paving 350 Supers serving as the lid lifters.
Two open practice sessions will be held prior to the first event including on May 18th from 1 to 5pm, and May 24th from 6 to 10pm.
