AKWESASNE – The Empire Super Sprints and Go Nuclear Late Models return to Mohawk International Raceway Friday night, along with the second round of the Frenchie’s ‘Chevy Runs Deep’ Modified Series.

Also on the card are a regular show for the Sportsman, Mod Lites and Bandits, plus a huge fireworks display.

After getting rained out earlier, the Empire Super Sprints return for to the track to kick off their SUNY Canton Shootout Weekend. The Go Nuclear Late Models will also return for their rescheduled race, after heavy rain and hail and then another passing shower, which forced track officials to postpone the show from their original June 8 date.

The 50 lap Frenchie’s 358 Modified Series will resume this weekend and a strong field of Modifieds are expected. Dale Planck took the win in the first race in May over Carey Terrance, Billy Dunn, Chris Raabe and Matt Billings, and all drivers will be in action as they battle for the coveted Frenchie’s championship.

General Admission is $25 for adults, $22 for students and seniors. Children 12 and under will be admitted for $10. Pit admission is $32 with DIRTcar license and $35 without. Pit gates open at 3 p.m., general admission starts at 5 p.m., and racing starts promptly at 7:45.
