BUDD’S CREEK, MD – The Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track
Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco continues to break new ground.
Racing around state regulations in place for COVID-19, the series completed a ‘Carolina Swing’ over Memorial Day weekend. Now, points racing for the Modified and Crate 602 Sportsman of the Velocita-USA South Region presented by Design for Vision and Sunglass Central returns on Sunday, June 7.
For the first
time ever, the STSS big-block/small-block Modifieds will rumble around the red
clay high banks of Potomac Speedway in Budd’s Creek, Md., on June 7. The 50-lap
event will serve as the second round of the STSS South Region. The full $25,000-plus
series payout - $5,000 to win, $1,000 for 10th and $400 to start –

Speedway’s U-Cars will complete the program on the three-eighths-mile oval.

very well attended return to racing on Memorial Day weekend in an event
headlined by the Super Late Models.
