This year’s edition of Super Dirt Week will look significantly different for dirt race fans while for Oswego Speedway their facility will have a new makeover. It is less than 80 days to the beginning of Super Dirt Week and the process is well under way. Sitting down with World Racing Group Director of Events Jeff Hachmann at the site of this year’s event, he explained how SDW got to where it is. “In novice terms, wood chips will be put down to keep moisture and then 12-15 inches of clay will go down.
