February 27, 2025 — The Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series roars back into action on Saturday, March 8 at I-75 Raceway, launching the 2025 season with a massive $20,000-to-win Super Late Model main event.
This high-stakes showdown marks the first step in the chase for the tour’s coveted $50,000 championship and promises to attract the Southeast’s top Super Late Model racers with their eyes on chasing the series title plus national touring stars eager to score a big early-season payday.
I-75 Raceway is quickly becoming a familiar battleground for the HTF Series. In November, the series closed out its 2024 season at the east Tennessee oval with a thrilling doubleheader that saw Cory Hedgecock win on Friday night and Brandon Overton wrap up the series title with a win on Saturday. Now, as the 2025 campaign begins, fans can expect another great racing program.
The March 8 event will feature a full racing program headlined by the $20,000-to-win Super Late Model main event, with additional divisions adding to the event’s excitement:
Best Plumber Crate Late Models — $2,000 to Win
602 Late Models — $1,000 to Win
Open-Wheel Modified — $750 to win
Front-Wheel Drive — $500 to Win
Race fans can also get a sneak peek at the weekend’s action during an Open Practice on Friday, March 7, from 6-9 PM.
