For Immediate Release DBS-061020-1
WEST HAVEN, Vt. – Dirt track racing is coming back to Vermont on Monday night. After working diligently with government officials in the State of Vermont throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, officials from Devil's Bowl Speedway in West Haven, Vt., have received approval to begin competition without general admission spectators, under multiple restrictions in accordance and compliance with guidelines set by the State of Vermont Agency of Commerce and Community Development (ACCD) and the Vermont Secretary of State Office of Professional Regulation (OPR).
Devil's Bowl Speedway will host "The COVID Crusher" event on Monday, June 15, at 7:00 p.m. to kick off the Vermont stock car racing season. The event will count for championship points for the Pepsi Sportsman Modified, O'Reilly Auto Parts Limited Sportsman, Super Stock, Mini Stock, and Friend Construction 500cc Mini Sprint divisions. The headline Sportsman Modifieds will race 29 laps for $1,200 to win and $125 to start, while the four support classes will each run "COVID-19" laps.
Monday's event will be restricted to pit area admission only. Residents of Vermont and approved counties in New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, and Rhode Island are welcome without quarantine restrictions, though non-Vermont residents must register with Sara Alert upon arrival to Vermont. Residents of Connecticut and Canada are not currently permitted under the State of Vermont's quarantine restrictions.
