Bridgeport Motorsports Park is rolling out the red carpet and bringing a true Hollywood experience to the Pioneer Pole Buildings Motorsports Show presented by Can-Am, happening Friday and Saturday, January 23–24, 2026, at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA!
Step into the spotlight at the Bridgeport booth and be among the first in the world to experience PONY, the groundbreaking feature film filmed at Bridgeport Motorsports Park and set for a Spring 2026 theatrical release. This is your exclusive chance to see movie magic collide with real dirt track action.
What to Expect at the Bridgeport Display:
- Walk the red carpet
- Meet cast members from PONY
- Get autographs and photos with the stars
- Watch exclusive trailer footage and never-before-seen scenes
- Experience it all on a massive 100-inch screen
This will be the first public showing of footage from the completed film, making the PPB Motorsports Show a historic moment in racing and film.
PONY is the first feature motion picture to authentically capture the world of Northeast Dirt Modified racing. It’s not just about speed and competition—it’s a powerful story of family, mental health, resilience, and determination. Centered around sisters Amanda and Pony Marchetti, the film follows their journey after a devastating championship crash changes everything and uncovers a shocking act of sabotage.
With real racing, real drivers, and real emotion, authenticity is at the heart of PONY.
Top Modified stars Billy Pauch Jr., Sammy Martz Jr., and Ryan Krachun performed high-speed stunt driving in real competition, while the lead actresses even took the wheel in select scenes. No green screens. No staged racing. Just pure dirt track adrenaline.
The project gained momentum when Bridgeport Motorsports Park owner Doug Rose joined forces with David Izzi of Izzi Trucking and Rigging and South Jersey producer Chris Cardillo, bringing the racing community directly into the production. Actual racers and race sponsors appear in the film exactly as they do on a real Saturday night at the track.
After two years of filming at Bridgeport and across New Jersey, production has wrapped and post-production is underway. A red carpet theatrical premiere is planned for Spring 2026, with discussions ongoing for a special outdoor screening right at Bridgeport Motorsports Park—bringing the movie home to where it all began.
