Milverton, ON – Thursday, June 23, 2022 – Event number four on the thirteen race 2022 NASCAR Pinty’s Series schedule takes place this Saturday June 25th at Eastbound International Speedway in Avondale, Newfoundland & Labrador. This event marks a first for the series and drivers, having never been to this ⅜-mile oval before.
Our dedicated truck drivers already began their long journey with the haulers, leaving Monday and heading to Sydney, Nova Scotia where they will catch the ferry to Newfoundland.
