WINTER HAVEN, Fla. — As tradition has it, motorsports fans from coast to coast will soon be flocking to the Sunshine State, ready to elude the abrasive winter chill in exchange for a full month of racing at a variety of ovals across the peninsula.
Auburndale Speedway will join in on the winter action with its highly-anticipated Winter Showdown on Feb. 6-10.
In total, seven different asphalt divisions will be taking to the Auburndale short track, all of which anchored with the 602 Tour Type Modifieds and the Tour/SK Type Open Modifieds that will headline the week-long Winter Showdown agenda on Thursday through Saturday.
The 602 Modifieds, battling for $500-to-win in each of their respective programs, will compete on all three of the aforementioned evenings with the Tour/SK Type Open Modifieds competing for $2,000-to-win paydays on Friday and Saturday, only.
The Tour Type Modifieds have never competed at Auburndale Speedway before.
In addition to the modified divisions, Legends/Bandoleros (highlighted with double programs on Wednesday and Thursday), Mighty TQ Midgets (chasing a $5,000 total purse), USAC Eastern Midgets, the National Compact Tour and the infamous Crown Vics will also join in on the Winter Showdown.
The race will be broadcast via SPEEDSPORT.tv.
