FULTON, NY (November 19, 2024) – Oswego Speedway veteran Darren Shuman is eager to continue racing this winter, as the Small Block Super racer is set to take on both the Atlantic City Indoor Midget Car Race in Atlantic City, NJ as well as the Trenton, NJ East Coast Indoor Dirt Nationals in his family-owned Hyper Chassis 600cc Micro Sprint.
Shuman, who finished third in this year’s Small Block Super track championship battle at Oswego, is excited to get back behind the wheel of his quick and nimble Micro Sprint machine, where he has twice earned main event victories.
“We have been focusing pretty heavily on the SBS the last few years, but the timing seemed right to take advantage of the intriguing Micro Sprint indoor schedule put together by the Indoor Auto Racing team,” said Shuman. “I have only made one Micro start in the last three years and haven’t raced on the concrete since my karting days, but I have always enjoyed the opportunity to go Micro Sprint racing and these upcoming indoor events are some of the most exciting shows you can be a part of during the winter.”
The Atlantic City Indoor Midget Car Race takes place on the concrete surface of the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, NJ. Covering three days of action on January 30-31 and February 1, a $1,500 winner’s prize awaits the 600cc Micro Sprint victor on the final day of action.
On February 21-22, the Micro Sprints then battle on the dirt inside of the Cure Insurance Arena in Trenton, NJ for the East Coast Indoor Dirt Nationals. Following two days of qualifying, nearly 100 entries will be whittled down to 24 A-Main starters, racing for a top prize of $5,000.
“These events will certainly put us to the test, but we are up for the challenge,” said Shuman. “Our family team always works hard to put ourselves in the best position possible, along with the help of our partners and supporters. We have room left on the race car ahead of Atlantic City for those who may be interested in joining our program as we prepare for this month of racing ahead.”
