DIRTcar Big-Block Modifieds Headline the Program Both Dates
Due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions, the Orange Crush Spring Smashtacular originally scheduled for Saturday, June 13 will not be held. Instead, the second week of high-powered stock car racing will echo through the historic Middletown, New York fairgrounds. Headlining the three-division program will be the United Rentals Big-Block DIRTcar Modifieds. They will be joined by the Small-Block Modifieds and the always exciting Street Stocks. A series of qualifying races will set the fields for each division's feature race.
