Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series Set for 23 Races at 15 Tracks in 2025’s Chase for $50,000 Series Championship

Enhanced Driver Loyalty Program Offers Series Regulars Travel Money for Each Track the Series Visits

MILTON, Fla. (Nov. 11) — The Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series continues to raise the bar for Dirt Late Model racing in the Southeast with the release of its plans for the 2025 race season.

Along with unveiling a 23-race schedule featuring events at 15 different tracks, the series is pleased to announce that the tour’s 2025 champion will once again earn a $50,000 payday at season’s end. The series has also made a major boost to its Driver Loyalty Program in its third season, becoming the first regional Dirt Late Model series to pay travel money to its full-time race teams.

Through the enhanced Driver Loyalty Program, the top 10 drivers in the series points standings heading to each track the tour visits will receive $500 in travel money in addition to their race payouts. This initiative builds on the tour’s commitment to supporting grassroots Super Late Model racing in the Southeast by promoting sustainable payouts that are lucrative to race teams while also providing racetracks the opportunity to host profitable events.

The series also increased the total end-of-season points fund by $8,000 for 2025, spreading the additional money across positions sixth through 10th. The addition brings the total 2025 points fund to $135,000.

In addition to the added travel money and the points fund increase, the series revamped its race payout structure for 2025, raising its minimum Friday night purse to $8,000 to win from the $5,000-to-win minimum purse in 2024.

The series will get an early start to its 2025 season with its first-ever Georgia-Florida Speedweeks events set for Monday, Jan. 27 and Tuesday, Jan. 28 at Needmore Speedway in Norman Park, Ga. The two $10,000-to-win programs are non-points races, offering teams the chance at an early-season tuneup before kicking off the points chase in March.

After hosting the tour’s championship weekend in 2024, I-75 Raceway in Sweetwater, Tenn., will play another important role for the series in 2025 as the host of the series’ regular season opener on Saturday, March 8. The single-day event will open the title chase with a $20,000-to-win program.
