Wallace Returns to Grassroots Racing at Vermont's Historic Track
Kenny Wallace, a familiar face on NASCAR broadcasts and social media, is set to step onto the half‑mile clay of Devil's Bowl Speedway for the first time in his career. The veteran driver, known for his charismatic presence and long‑standing involvement in grassroots racing, will compete in two distinct events that showcase both his skill behind the wheel and his connection to the sport's roots.
The weekend’s headline attraction is the Kenny Wallace Crown Vic Shootout, a showdown that pits the former NASCAR star against a roster of local talent in a battle of modified sedans. Complementing this event is the Sunoco Sportsman Modified Shootout, where Wallace will pilot a specially prepared modified car against regional competitors. Both races are part of a broader program that includes features from the DIRTcar 358 Modified division, ensuring a full slate of high‑octane competition across all of the speedway’s weekly divisions.
