The STARS series has rich tradition and strong roots in the region. We hope to revitalize it to the level it was in the 80’s & 90’s and plan to give it 110% in doing so” stated promoter, Cody Watson.

“We wanted to soft release the return early and will begin gathering tracks, drivers, and more info in the coming months. Our goal is to have a website online within the next month with more definitive info for fans available early in the fall” added Watson. “Our early goal is to pay $3,000 minimum to win on week day shows with $5,000 minimum to win on weekends and have a very lucrative pay off throughout the full field.
