Dominion Raceway and Entertainment announces today with our 2025 schedule release, we will designate the Virginia Racer Late Model class as the Feature class in our long running NASCAR racing sanction for the coming year. Dominion created the Va Racer class 6 years ago to bring back competitive and affordable Late Model racing action. Its success has exceeded all expectations.
Finding less expensive options for weekly racers as well as injecting more driver skill in car handling was always the most important part of this initiative. Dominion took the lead from its roots; Late Model racing was created and began at Old Dominion Speedway, Manassas, VA. under its former promoter/owner Dick Gore, who created a class that would become the premier form of Short Track racing nationally. Unfortunately, the costs of competition in this class as it evolved made it unaffordable to the race community it was originally designed for.
The VA Racer class that Dominion created solved the cost issue and preserved the original speed, thrill and competition of Late Model racing! We are proud to stand behind this initiative today, accept the next step and declare that it will be our NASCAR Advance Auto Weekly Feature Class for 2025. Dominion also developed a Modified Racer class two years ago using similar design principals and costs. We are watching that class also greatly develop from humble beginnings.
With this announcement we are changing the VA class name to America Racer for 2025 and beyond.
Please join Dominion Raceway and Entertainment as we make Late Model and Modified Racing affordable, competitive and Great Again!
