Off to All-Tech: Short Track Super Series Set for ‘Sunshine Swing’ February 8-12 in Lake City, Fla.
LAKE CITY, FL – Sun, fun & speed: 3.0.
For the third consecutive year, the Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco heads to the Sunshine State in the month of February to kick off the 2022 season.
The STSS returns to the site of the original ‘Sunshine Swing’ at All-Tech Raceway in Lake City, Fla., with the STSS Modifieds and STSS Crate 602 Sportsman both in competition under the Florida sunshine.
The STSS last visited All-Tech Raceway in 2020 with three racing programs in two days after the first night was moved back due to rain.
Sprakers, N.Y.’s Stewart Friesen won both events that night, and Ransomville, N.Y.’s Erick Rudolph picked up the $10,000-to-win finale in the inaugural ‘Sunshine Swing.’
After a trip to Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla., last January due to scheduling conflicts, the STSS returns to a fan- and competitor-favorite at All-Tech Raceway in 2022.
The ’22 ‘Sunshine Swing’ kicks off on Tuesday (Feb. 8), with an open practice for all competitors at the half-mile speedway leading into four nights of racing.
On Wednesday (Feb. 9), racing for the week begins with a 30-lap, $4,000-to-win feature event for the STSS Modifieds. The STSS Crate 602 Sportsman race for 25 laps and $1,500-to-win on the opening night of the week.
The following (Feb. 10) night, the stakes are raised for the STSS Modifieds in a 35-lap, $5,000-to-win feature event. The STSS Crate 602 Sportsman run another 25 laps for another $1,500 payday to the winner.
Friday night (Feb. 11), the purse grows for both the STSS Modifieds and STSS Crate 602 Sportsman with just two races remaining in the week.
