Now in its 9th season, SCSCS teams campaign steel-bodied, 600hp, V8 Chevrolets and Fords on quarter and half-mile asphalt tracks across the Midwest.
MAVTV coverage includes the SCSCS series opener from Columbus Motor Speedway in Columbus, OH, on Saturday, June 18; followed by a doubleheader (Rounds 2 & 3) on July 9 from Jennerstown Speedway in Jennerstown, PA, before revisiting Jennerstown Speedway on August 27 (Rounds 4 & 5). The SCSCS season points finale will be held at Motordrome Speedway in Smithton, PA, on Saturday, September 17. Each MAVTV/SCSCS show will be 30 minutes long, air dates and times will be announced at a later date.
"I am excited to be part of the MAVTV family in 2016, said Joe Schmaling, SCCS Director of Competition. "SCSCS is "Racin' the way it used to be.' We put on a great show for the fans and we know TV viewers are going to love it""For more information, visit: www.supercupstockcarseries.com
