(FREDERICTON, NB – March 5th, 2020) – The Atlantic Modified Tour is excited to release their 2020 schedule. Much like the previous season, the Tour will visit the three premier ovals within the Province of New Brunswick with a total of 12 events scheduled beginning in May.

The green flag will fly for the Atlantic Modified Tour on Saturday, May 30th with a visit to Speedway Miramichi in Miramichi, New Brunswick. The historic oval on New Brunswick’s North Shore will host the Series five times in 2020, including the season opener and the finale during The Very Best Fall Shootout on Saturday, October 3rd. Three mid-season dates in Canada’s Irish Capital will go a long way in determining a 2020 champion on Saturday, July 25th, Saturday, August 8th and Saturday, September 12th.

Petty International Raceway will play host to five Atlantic Modified Tour events in 2020. Two of those events will be on the undercard of the Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour on Saturday, June 27th and Saturday, August 22nd. The Series will contest their penultimate event of the season on Friday, September 18th during the Mike Stevens Memorial Weekend. The Tour will also make stops to the high banked River Glade, New Brunswick bullring on Saturday, June 13th and Saturday, August 15th.

Speedway 660 will see the Modifieds hit the track twice this season. The Geary woods will “feel the thunder” of the open wheeled chariots on Saturday, June 20th and Sunday, September 6th. The September date is a part of SpeedWeekend 2020 and will serve as one of the opening acts to that evening’s 20th Annual Pro Stock 250.

“Brenda and I are very excited about the opportunity to help develop and grow the Atlantic Modified Tour,” said Glyn Nott of Bryn Enterprises. “We are looking forward to supporting local tracks and grass roots racing in New Brunswick. We are making final arrangements to be at Radical Speedsport in April at the Moncton Coliseum. We hope to see familiar faces in Moncton from April 17th to 19th as well as our Season Opener on Saturday, May 30th at Speedway Miramichi. It’s almost time to “Come Feel the Thunder” at a track near you!”

All Atlantic Modified Tour features are 35-laps in length unless otherwise noted. Marketing opportunities are available by contacting Glyn Nott at Bryn Enterprises at (506) 471-2905 or brynbrendanott@gmail.com. A new website is being developed for the 2020 season and can be found once live at AtlanticModifieds.com.
