Sunoco & Twisted Tea to Present
Thompson World Series Action
American-Canadian Tour (ACT) and Pro
All Stars Series (PASS) officials have
announced partnerships with Sunoco and
Twisted Tea to present the 59th World Series
of Speedway Racing at Connecticut’s
Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park. The
three-day auto racing festival is scheduled for
Friday, October 8 through Sunday, October
10 and is highlighted by the return of the
$20,000-to-win Thompson 300.
The Thompson World Series extravaganza
will once again be known as the Sunoco
World Series of Speedway Racing. Sunoco
has been the sponsor of the World Series for
the last decade-plus and returns to present the
three-day series. As part of the agreement, the
300-lap Outlaw Open Modified Series feature
will be known as the Sunoco Thompson 300.
Additionally, the Thompson 300 has now
been switched to a one-day format. All qualifying
races and the main event will be on
Sunday, October 10. Optional practice sessions
are slated for Friday and Saturday with
a session on Sunday prior to qualifying.
Officials decided the one-day format would
be in the best interests of teams and fans, giving
them more options about how to approach
the race weekend.
Meanwhile, the Twisted Tea brand of hard
iced tea — via its parent Boston Beer
Company and their longtime partner Hartford
Distributing — will present the Saturday portion
of the motorsport festival. Twisted Tea
World Series Saturday includes a National
Championship event for the PASS Super Late
Models and an ACT Late Model Tour event.
The deal is an extension of the partnership
with Boston Beer Company and Hartford
Distributing to present the Wednesday night
events at Thompson Speedway in 2021.
“We’re glad to continue working with both
Sunoco and Twisted Tea,” ACT managing
partner Cris Michaud said. “They got onboard
with our vision for Thompson Speedway very
early in the process. All of us have been
happy with the results so far, which made
continuing these partnerships for the World
Series an easy decision. We’re looking forward
to the event and to the rest of the season
at Thompson.”
The full Sunoco World Series of Speedway
Racing division line-up will be announced in
the coming weeks. Please check the ACT,
PASS, and Thompson Speedway websites for
further updates.
