This Saturday, we began our final preparations to get the 2021 Racing Season underway with our Track Cleanup Day. We have a lot which includes scraping the wall of loose paint, painting the walls (both inside and out), painting the tires, and cleaning up the grounds. We ask that you please let Alex know your coming by emailing him at racingpromotions1@gmail.com or message the Snydersville Raceway Facebook Page, so we can get an idea of how much lunch to get. We will start around 10am, but we may bump it back an hour if it’s still around freezing at the start time. We will have a limited supply of paint rollers, paint brushes, rakes, shovels, and scrapers/wire brushes, but we ask that you please bring the following in case we have a lot of people:
- Paint Roller or Brush
- Scraper (aka Putty Knife) or Wire Brush
- Shovel
- Rake
As for the 2020 Awards, due to shipping delays (as everyone knows and loves right now), we will have to move the awards back to Saturday, April 10 on Practice Day. We do apologize in advance for this. If you can’t make it, you can still pick up your awards the next Friday. We look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday for a little cleaning up!

We will be waiting another week to get the 2021 season underway as one of the track light poles came crashing down onto the track destroying light fixtures and causing some damage. We are in the process of replacing the pole but repairing other items will ultimately push the cleanup and awards to Sat. April 3. This will also push Practice Day to Saturday, April 10. We hope to hit the race track soon and see you all at The Ville.
Due to snow and muddy grounds at the track, the cleanup/awards day has been postponed to March 27 at 10am. This will also push the Practice day to Saturday, April 3rd, and our opening night now Friday, April 9. The 2020 Awards will be scheduled for distribution on Saturday, March 27. We will have more details on what time that will occur. Enjoy the week and upcoming weekend and we will see you on the 27th.
As the season is fast approaching we have opened an ONLINE PAYMENT STORE to renew pit spots from 2020. You can click the Reserve Pit Parking link in the menu and then click on 2021 Reserve Parking. Once you have the product page loaded, select your renewal spot from the drop-down and add it to the cart. If you have 2 spots, you will have to go back and add the other spot to the cart. All Pit Spots are $75 each for the year. All major credit & debit cards are accepted. Current racers that have reserve spots from 2020, have until the end of Practice to renew the spot. As for the unreserved spots from 2020, we will be opening sales within the next few days for the purchase of those spots.
Due to restrictions still, we will be holding our 2021 Annual Rules Meeting over Microsoft Teams on Sunday, March 7 at 3:00 pm Eastern. We will go over the rules for the 2021 racing season and then open it up for Q&A at the end of the meeting. Mics are not required as there will be a chat to post questions. To register for the meeting, go to https://snydersvilleraceway.com/rule-meeting-registration/. You don’t need to have to download teams; you can join via the web.
