Small Block Super Championship Series – OSWEGO, NY (April 14, 2023) – The first of four Jake’s Automotive Small Block Super Championship Series events is set to take the green flag on Saturday, May 13 at Evans Mills Raceway Park in Evans Mills, NY.
The 30-lap Jake’s Automotive SBSCS event will be presented by UltimateQM.com and will pay $1,000 to the winner at the 3/8 mile short track, located just outside of the Fort Drum Army Base in Northern New York State.
“We’re excited to return to Evans Mills next month with a great field of racers, eager to put on another exciting show,” said SBSCS promoter, Dan Kapuscinski. “Evans Mills provides fantastic racing for our cars and we always look forward to making the trip back. Thank you to the Gill family for having us and thanks to our partners Jake’s Automotive, Binghamton Truck & Tire Center and UltimateQM.com for making this happen.”
Located on US Route 11 just outside of Evans Mills, Evans Mills Raceway Park was originally built by the Zeigler brothers of Boonville in 1967. Spending time as both a paved and dirt facility, Lee and Peggy Gill purchased the speedway in December of 2018, with a focused investment in growing pavement racing. In a short period of time, the speedway has once again risen to a favorite among competitors and fans, with the speedway having been established as a friendly, clean, safe and enjoyable destination for families to gather.
Running May through late September, the speedway hosts 54 hospitality suites with a grandstand seating capacity of 3,000. Along with the Small Block Supers the speedway hosts Modifieds, Pro Late Models, INEX Legends Cars and Stock Cars.
