White Mountain is the New Hampshire Touring Series Hub Once Again in 2022
N. Woodstock, NH — White Mountain Motorsports Park (WMMP) has a storied history, in it’s comparatively young lifetime, as a touring series mecca in northern New Hampshire. Our first event in September 1993 was headlined by the NASCAR Busch North Series and in celebrating our 30th season in 2022, WMMP isn’t showing any signs of limiting our exposure to touring series or traveling fans. All in all, twelve different touring divisions will take to the North Woodstock high-banks throughout the summer.
Under the ownership and sanction of the American-Canadian Tour, WMMP will continue to host three races on the ACT Late Model Tour circuit once again. Bookended by the 47th Caron Fabrication Spring Green and the 44th Fall Foliage 200, the Milton CAT Midsummer 250 is back once again to shake up the midseason championship battle. Last year’s thrilling duel between championship contender DJ Shaw and part-time invader Jason Corliss ended with the latter crossing the finish line just 0.065 seconds ahead of the former, with the Burnett Scrap Metals hood covering over the Five Star Race Car Bodies windshield through the final five circuits. This year being the fifth 250 lap ACT Late Model event at WMMP is sure to be just as exciting once again, with another $10,000 top prize on the line.
The Pro All Stars Series will continue their longtime relationship with the North Woodstock facility with three events each for both the Super Late Model and Modified divisions. While the PASS Mods always produce an exciting show on the White Mountain high-banks, the Super Late Models will have even more reason to fight hard for each and every spot. The first outing on May 15, as part of our 30th Anniversary Opening Weekend, will serve as a New England North race, while the following two will award points to both New England North AND South drivers, meaning a mix of Southern New England competitors will make the drive north on 93 and battle hard for valuable points. The Pro All Stars Series 150 on September 17, as part of the ACT Fall Foliage Weekend, will also serve as a PASS National points event.
Under the same Pro All Stars Series umbrella, the newly founded NE Big-Block Super Modified Series will make two appearances this summer. These big motor, winged, bullet-shaped behemoths are something never seen at White Mountain, but are known to tear up anything from the bullrings of Seekonk or Monadnock to the 5/8-mile of Thompson Speedway. The first time these Super Modifieds hit the track they’ll produce lighting-fast excitement like we’ve never seen at White Mountain, and are surely not to be missed.
Speaking of modifieds, both the Tour-type Modifeds and their scaled down brethren will return to White Mountain after both short and long hiatuses. The Modified Racing Series and New England Pro-4 Modifeds will bring a touch of Southern New England, North, showcasing up-and-coming talent and longtime supporters for the most exciting, open-wheeled racing in the northeast.
That’s just scratching the surface. With multiple visits from the GoMotorsportsShop.com NELCAR Legends Tour and the New England Dwarf Car Series, White Mountain will also host the Northeast Mini Stock Tour (NEMST), the Wicked Good Vintage Racing Association, R&R Race Parts NH Street Stock Open Series and the Senior Tour Auto Racers (STAR). We’ve also added a series of five races throughout the summer for the new Ammonoosuc Asphalt Mini Late Model class, which follows NEMST rules to offer racers an outlet on off-weekends from the Tour with drivers from across New England showing interest in joining.
From vintage racers to nationally renowned Late Model tours, Modifieds, Mini Stocks, Legends and Street Stocks – White Mountain Motorsports Park has a little bit of everything to serve your need for speed during 22 events throughout 2022.
White Mountain Motorsports Park opens the 2022 campaign with a 30th Season Doubleheader Weekend on May 14 and 15. Saturday, May 14 at 6:00pm is a four-division card with added-distance features for the Foley Oil & Propane Late Models, Wells River Chevrolet Flying Tigers, Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Stock Mini’s, and Wayne’s Market Dwarf Cars. Sunday, May 15 at 1:00pm is the WMMP debut of the NE Big-Block Super Modified Series plus the PASS Super Late Model 150, PASS Modifieds, Ammonoosuc Asphalt Mini Late Models, and Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kids Division.
