Rutland, Vt., business to sponsor dirt Sportsman Modifieds and asphalt Late Models
RUTLAND, Vt. – Devil’s Bowl Speedway’s 50th season of stock car racing just got an extra boost, as longtime marketing partner Central Vermont Motorcycles has doubled its support of the track for 2016. Central Vermont Motorcycles will return as the title sponsor of the Late Model division on Devil’s Bowl’s half-mile Asphalt Track and also joins the 3/10-mile Dirt Track to headline the Sportsman Modified class. Both divisions will be part of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series (NWAAS) championship structure.
Located on West Street in Downtown Rutland, Vt., Central Vermont Motorcycles offers a full line of powersports vehicles for land, sea, and snow.
