Super DIRTcar Series Back for 37th Summer Nationals August 24
RANSOMVILLE, NY (November 21, 2021) The Big Block Modified Super DIRTcar Series will be making its return to the Big R for the 37th edition of the Summer Nationals on Wednesday, August 24, 2022. The 2022 edition of the Summer Nationals will be a 75-lap feature for “The Beasts of the Northeast”. Thursday, August 25th will be used as a rain date if needed.
In 2021, Savannah, NY’s “Super” Matt Sheppard won the 36th Summer Nationals, his second triumph in the event in four seasons. Sheppard won over Peter Britten, Stewart Friesen, Mike Mahaney, and 2021 Ransomville Speedway Krown Undercoating Modified co-champion Erick Rudolph. Sheppard’s win at Ransomville helped him win his unprecedented eighth Super DIRTcar Series Championship.
The Super DIRTcar Series has a long history of racing at the “Big R”. Ransomville has been on the schedule since 1972 when the Series originated. The best-modified drivers from the Northeast are expected to be in attendance at the historic Niagara County, NY oval.
As part of the Summer Nationals, the second annual Mike Bonesky Memorial for the Investor’s Service Sportsman. Bonesky was a longtime writer in both the Gater Racing News and the Area Auto Racing News after spending time behind the wheel of a racecar. Bonesky was also an avid race fan and crew member for Ryan Susice, as well as his grandson’s racing efforts at the “Little R” on Thursday nights. The inaugural race last season saw Scott Kerwin take home the checkered flag. Look for the Bonesky Memorial to be one of the more lucrative races in the division throughout the region.
