DeLorenzo Takes over Fonda and goes DIRTcar Sanction; Fulton Announcement Monday

Fonda Speedway has announced that Matt DeLorenzo/BBL Companies will take over the lease of the historic track, and jump to DIRTcar sanction in 2014. Fonda was one of DIRTcar's premier tracks until the early 2000s when Ric Lucia decided to go the independant route. Fonda has not hosted any modified-sanctioned races since the last time the RoC Dirt Tour was there. Fonda and DIRTcar are currently working on securing a Super DIRTcar Series race at the track for this summer.

Fonda joins Big Diamond, Glen Ridge, Weedsport, and Brewerton as tracks that announced they will jump to DIRTcar sanctioning for next season.

Fulton Speedway will be announcing their 2014 plans this coming Monday. All reports have them joining DIRTcar, but it is still unclear whether big blocks or small blocks will be the headline division at the home of the Outlaw 200. It was announced at Super DIRT Week that the 2014 Super DIRTcar Series will kick off at Fulton Speedway in late April.
