(May 11, 2015) – Ohsweken, Ontario – Ohsweken Speedway officials are proud to announce the return of Burger Barn as a major sponsor at the track, and title sponsor of the Northern Summer Nationals and Night Before the Nationals.
DIRTcar 358 Modifieds will again join the Corr/Pak Merchandising 360 Sprint Cars, Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Cars, and HRW Automotive Mini Stocks for the 8th annual edition of the Burger Barn Northern Summer Nationals on Monday, July 27. The Corr/Pak Merchandising 360 Sprint Car portion of the event takes on extra importance this year, with the feature winner guaranteed to start no worse than 8th in the 11th annual Canadian Sprint Car Nationals feature in September.
The Burger Barn Night Before the Nationals will kick off the racing portion of the 11th annual Canadian Sprint Car Nationals weekend on Friday, September 18, and will include Twin 15 lap features for 360 Sprint Cars, the Dave MacLeod Memorial Shootout, and the Kevin Ward, Jr. Young Stars Challenge, plus Strickland’s GMC Crate Sprint Cars, and HRW Automotive Mini Stocks. The Twin 15 winners will again be guaranteed a starting spot in the CSCN feature the following night.
Since opening in 2011, Burger Barn has quickly gained a reputation for large portions, friendly staff, great food, and fair prices.

Burger Barn takes pride in their product, and they never get tired of hearing “That was the best burger I’ve ever had”. Their menu also includes all-day breakfast, wings, chicken burgers, fish and chips, pulled pork, daily specials, and much more!
