The future of the short track auto racing has seen many changes in the recent years. One of the up-and-coming trends in short track racing is the development and implication of the GM crate racing engine. Penn Can Speedway is the first speedway in the southern tier ready to make the change to the crate engine in the 2010 season. While the engine was optional in the sportsman division in 2009 and some competitors did make the switch, the sportsman division will be headed towards the crate engine in 2010. While some are skeptical about the crate engine, it has been proven to be very successful at other speedway within traveling distance of Penn Can. The DIRT circuit went to running the 602 crates full time in the 2009 season. Woodhull Raceway and Accord both have had success along with New Egypt Speedway and Bridgeport Speedway in New Jersey. For those wanting more information on the crate engine, please click on the GM Performance Part link above. Much more information including a specific rules package will be announced in the very near future as well as many other interesting announcements concerning racing at Penn Can in 2010.
