Path Valley to Host Super Late Models 3 Times in 2024
As winter makes temperatures outside cool down the 2024 season
schedule has just began to heat up at Path Valley. With last
years return and success, the Appalachian Mountain Super
Late Models speedweek makes its trek back to the speedway
on Tuesday, June 11th. A dicey forecast last year would
produce a washout despite high car counts.
Sunday, May 19th will prove to be a historic night for the
speedway as the World of Outlaws Late Model series will
invade the high banked clay oval for the first time. Some
of the top drivers in the nation are expected to battle it
out with the locals.
The third visit for the Super Lates will be the return of
Dr. Crouse's Night of Power on Friday, July 19th. The ULMS
Super Late Models will be featured along side the PASS 305
Sprints, and the Modifieds.
