Weedsport Kartway to Hold Open Practice, 2020 Awards Ceremony on Sunday, May 2

By admin March 26, 2021 Weedsport Speedway

WEEDSPORT, NY (March 25, 2021) – Weedsport Kartway announced on Thursday that ‘The Short Port’ will hold an open practice session on Sunday, May 2, followed by a 2020 Super Kart Series Awards Ceremony.

The day’s open practice session will run from Noon to 2 p.m. with point monies and awards from the 2020 season to be handed out following the day’s final checkered flag.

As an added bonus, 2020 track champions will be invited as guests to Weedsport Speedway’s Super DIRTcar Series Heroes Remembered 100 on Sunday, May 30, where they will be presented their championship leather jackets during pre-race ceremonies, LIVE on www.dirtvision.com.

“Due to lingering COVID restrictions this spring, we thought this was a nice alternative for our Kartway members,” said Weedsport Speedway promoter, Jimmy Phelps.  “We will not only be able to make an entire afternoon out of it with a practice session, but our champions will get some added recognition at our big Memorial Day Weekend Super DIRTcar Series special.”

More specific details on the day’s awards ceremony will be announced in the coming days.

Pit gates will open on Sunday, May 2 at 11 a.m. with a $15 pit pass required for all in attendance.

Social distancing mandates will still be followed, including masks, with temperatures being taken at the pit gate upon arrival.
