(SODUS, NY) – Let the countdown begin.

With over 100 days to the first race day of the season, the A-Verdi Storage Containers CRSA Sprints powered by Super Gen Products are proud to release their tentative schedule for 2024.

The calendar for “The Future Stars of Sprint Cars” currently features 11 tracks amongst two states, all paying $1000 to win, $200 to start.

The season kicks off at the Spoonhower’s Thunder Mountain Speedway May 4 as part of the new Southern Tier Series, a nine-race mini-series. It is the first time the 3/8 mile in Center Lisle hosts the season opener. Billy VanInwegen took the checkered flag in the lone trip last year. Thunder Mountain will also host a race in the Southern Tier Series Aug. 10.

The schedule also includes three trips to Paul Cole’s Land of Legends Raceway in Canandaigua as part of the DisBatch Brewing Company Challenge. The ½ mile track will be hosting on May 11, July 4 on the undercard to the Super DIRTcar Series, and for the second time, the season finale Sept. 28. Last year, Jordan Hutton scored two series wins at Canandaigua in addition to the weekly-sanctioned 305 Sprints title.

Weedsport Speedway has held the record for most cars in a CRSA Sprints race for the last two years, with 33 each. “The Port” returns to the calendar May 26 as part of Heroes Remembered weekend with the Super DIRTcar Series, the first race in the I-90 Pit Stop Challenge. VanInwegen also took the checkered flag last year at the 1/3 mile D-shaped oval.

Afton Fairgrounds Speedway has always remained stable on the CRSA Sprints schedule. After both attempts to race were rained out last year, it returns to the schedule on May 31 and July 19 as part of the Southern Tier Series.

Brett Deyo’s Fonda and Utica-Rome Speedways return for the I-90 Challenge to kick off June. Fonda will host a pair of races on June 1 and July 27, while Utica-Rome has penciled in three races on June 7, Aug. 2, and Sept. 27 as a part of the Short Track SuperNationals. Hutton captured the checkers at Utica-Rome and Fonda last year, while Tomy Moreau did the wing dance at Fonda for the first time in his CRSA Sprints career.

Penn Can Speedway in Susquehanna has always been a regular stop for the CRSA Sprints and is known for having invaders from the Northeast make the trip. They host the CRSA Sprints June 14 and Sept. 13 as part of the Southern Tier Series. Tim Iulg upset the field last year for his first career win in June, while schoolteacher Kyle Pierce was declared “King of the Can” in September.

Tyler Siri’s Outlaw Speedway in Dundee will close out June with the Series’ lone appearance at the Yates County facility on June 21. Moreau picked up his second win of the year in 2023.

Kurt and Bonnie Stebbins' Genesee Speedway in Batavia will be a part of the Fourth of July weekend on July 6 for their lone race. Last year, Dalton Herrick won the series' inaugural trip.

Nikki and Terry Brewer’s Woodhull Raceway will now host a pair of CRSA Sprints event, as they are scheduled as part of the Southern Tier Series Aug. 17 and Sept. 14. Hutton won the Series’ lone event last year.
