15 Tracks, Six States, One Canadian Province: Short Track Super Series Sets 2026 Schedule

FONDA, NY – The 13th season for the Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco is taking shape.

STSS Modifieds and Sportsman return in North and South regional battles racing planned for 15 different tracks across six states (New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Vermont) and one Canadian Province (Quebec).

“We’ve come a long way from our first season in 2014 with six races at five tracks,” series organizer Brett Deyo said. “For 2026, our 13th year, we looked at economic factors, participation and crowds at events across the Modified spectrum and focused on a schedule that is more achievable for our teams.

“We feel we’ve found a balance between racing too little and not over-extended our product.”

Deyo added that limited dates or venues could be added during the winter months.

HYTORC of New York North Region

One of New York State’s most legendary facilities – the high-banked Lebanon Valley Speedway in West Lebanon, N.Y. – opens the 2025 HYTORC of New York Modified North Region with the inaugural ‘King of Spring’ event on Thursday, May 21.

Mike Bruno’s Devil’s Bowl Speedway in West Haven, Vt., occupies its traditional Father’s Day slot on the STSS schedule with the ‘Slate Valley 67’ event Sunday, June 25.

N.Y.’s Afton Motorsports Park – located on the Afton Fairgrounds – hosts a pair of points-paying events in ’26: the ‘Interstate 88 Special’ on Thursday, June 25 and ‘Afton Action 50’ on Thursday, Sept. 3.

The 17th annual Short Track SuperNationals “Working Man’s Race” takes place at the Ron Ford-promoted venue Friday-Saturday Oct. 9-10, once again a non-points-paying event.

Md.’s Hagerstown Speedway welcomed the ‘Octoberfest’ back last October with a warm welcome by competitors who flocked to the red clay half-mile oval. The ‘Octoberfest’ program concludes the South Region for ’26 on Friday-Saturday Oct. 16-17.
