WEST HAVEN, VT – A Father’s Day Special.
For the third consecutive year, the Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco celebrates Father’s Day at Vermont’s Devil’s Bowl Speedway.
Mike Bruno’s facility hosts the $10,000-to-win ‘Slate Valley 50’ for the STSS big-block/small-block Modifieds.
The event takes the place of Round No. 7 of the Ollie’s Overall Championship and Round No. 3 of the River Valley Builders North Region.
Saint Catherines, Ontario, Canada’s Mat Williamson holds a 53-point advantage over Savannah, N.Y.’s Matt Sheppard for the overall championship.
Williamson meanwhile sits second in the North Region Championship chase, five markers behind Sprakers, N.Y.’s Stewart Friesen.
Friesen is the defending winner of the ‘Slate Valley 50,’ having claimed the $10,000 prize in ’23.
Friesen topped J.R. Hurlburt Steve Bernier, who both had their best career STSS finishes in the ’23 ‘Slate Valley 50.’
Matt Sheppard won the ’22 ‘Slate Valley 50,’ a non-stop affair that saw Sheppard lead all 50 laps. Mat Williamson was the runner-up and Demetrios Drellos rounded out the podium.
