Oswego Kartway - OSWEGO, NY (February 28, 2022) - Long known as a stepping stone to the big leagues of racing at Oswego Speedway, Oswego Kartway will now see its champions and Kartway Classic winners recognized during Oswego Speedway’s two crown jewel events; the Budweiser International Classic 200 and NAPA Super DIRT Week’s Super DIRTcar Series Billy Whittaker Cars 200.
Located directly behind Oswego Speedway, the Kartway will reopen in 2022 for a special three-race ‘King of the Kartway’ series, which will crown track champions in seven different divisions following events on Friday, August 12, Thursday, September 1 and Friday, September 23.
Track champions in each division will receive a pair of complimentary general admission tickets to NAPA Super DIRT Week’s Super DIRTcar Series Billy Whittaker Cars 200 on Sunday, October 9 and each will be recognized during pre-race ceremonies ahead of driver introductions.
Each champion will not only be welcomed to the pre-race stage and introduced to the crowd, but they will also have the opportunity to shake the hand of each starter in the Billy Whittaker Cars 200.
The Oswego Kartway Classic, which takes place on Thursday, September 1 during Budweiser International Classic Weekend, will award each of its champions a chance to be recognized during driver introductions of the Budweiser International Classic 200 on Sunday, September 4.
Each Kartway Classic winner will walk the Classic podium and be introduced to the crowd before greeting each starter in the International Classic.
Top three finishers in Kartway Classic events will again receive complimentary tickets to Classic Weekend from Oswego Speedway.
“We can’t thank NAPA Super DIRT Week’s Jeff Hachmann and Oswego Speedway’s Paul Conzone enough for these special opportunities for our racers,” said King of the Kartway series promoter, Dan Kapuscinski. “Oswego Kartway provides a unique chance for up and coming racers to compete behind one of the most historic speedways in the country and now our champions and Classic winners will be given a memory of a lifetime when they’re included in pre-race ceremonies for these major events.”
