The Super DIRTcar Series is upping the ante at six of its scheduled events this season by awarding starting positions in the big-block modified finale of the NAPA Auto Parts Super DIRT Week XLVII.

Any driver who wins a qualifier is guaranteed a starting spot in the "biggest big-block event in the country" at Oswego Speedway on Sunday, October 7.

All Super DIRT Car Series events with a purse of $7,500 or higher will serve as NAPA Super DIRT Week Qualifiers. As of today’s date, there are five of these on the schedule: three at Weedsport Speedway, one at Albany-Saratoga Speedway and another at Lebanon Valley Speedway.

In addition to these, and in order to further honor the career of big-block modified driver Jack Johnson, the Jack Johnson Tribute race at Fonda Speedway will also guarantee the winner a starting position at NAPA Super DIRT Week.

Tracks not currently participating in the NAPA Super DIRT Week Qualifier program will have the opportunity to raise their purse and be added to the schedule.
