Empire Super Sprints to Make First Ever Appearance at South Buxton Raceway.
SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- On Saturday evening, June 24th a little slice of history will be added to the world of the Empire Super Sprints (ESS).

Rich in sprint car tradition, the track known as Canada's fastest 3/8ths mile oval celebrating it's 35th season will play host to one of the leading sprint car organizations. ESS visits more than a dozen tracks in the United States and Canada each year, but for this late June night it will mark the first time ever in this Western, Ontario area. With the some of the very best from "America's Race Cars" visiting the Ohsweken Speedway the night prior, it will provide an exciting weekend for all Canadian sprint car fans.
South Buxton will also host the Sprints On Dirt and the Southern Ontario Sprints in 2006 making for a schedule full of sprint car appearances at the track the where United Midwestern Promoters late models and modifieds roam free. Not only has these fine organizations visited the facility over the years, but a special appearance by the All-Star Circuit of Champions in 2004 marks as one of the highlights.
The track is owned and operated by SM Freight, Inc of Blenheim, Ont. The successful transportation company continues to make improvements to the facility in bringing the dirt track to higher levels. The goal each year is to make this one of the most talked about and headline making Saturday night tracks in all of Canada.
