Delaware’s Jordan Watson Files First ‘Sunshine Swing’ STSS Modified Entry for February 2020
LAKE CITY, FL – On the heels of a career season,
Jordan Watson is anxious to get 2020 underway.
Watson, the reigning Modified champion at Delaware International Speedway in Delmar, Del., was the first to file an official entry for the ‘Sunshine Swing’ at All-Tech Raceway in Lake City, Fla., February 5-8, 2020.
The Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco makes its inaugural visit to the state of Florida in February. For the first time in history, the Short Track Super Series-sanctioned Modifieds and Crate 602 Sportsman will venture south for the ‘Sunshine Swing’ mini-series.
An open
practice on Wednesday (Feb. 5) leads into three consecutive nights of racing at
the facility located roughly an hour west of Jacksonville. Thursday night (Feb.
6) features $5,000-to-win STSS Modifieds and $1,250-to-win Crate 602 Sportsman.
On Friday (Feb. 7) the stakes rise to $7,500-to-win STSS Modifieds with Crate
602 Sportsman again competing for $1,250.
Saturday
(Feb. 8) closes the book on the series with Modifieds competing for $10,000 to
win and Crate 602 Sportsman battling for a $1,500 top prize.
Watson, of
Milford, Del., will pilot his family owned No. 1J in the Sunshine State,
tackling what is expected to be an all-star field of big-block/small-block
Modifieds.
In the First
State, Watson rattled off nine Modified wins at Delaware International en route
to the track championship at the half-mile oval promoted by the Cathell family.
On November
2, Watson represented his home state in the Georgetown (Del.) Speedway
Mid-Atlantic Championship, besting the STSS field for his second career victory
with the series worth $7,400. The win propelled Watson to a very solid fifth in
the year-end Velocita-USA South Region presented by Design for Vision and
Sunglass Central final points.
The
Mid-Atlantic Championship victory was Watson’s second of the season at
Georgetown, bringing his total to 11.
