LAKE CITY, FL – What started as a simple conversation has grown into an exciting February tradition, as the DTD TV Showdown in the Sunshine State returns to All-Tech Raceway for its second annual running, February 10-13, 2027.
Following a successful inaugural event, the four-night showcase will once again bring DIRTcar Big-Block Modifieds and DIRTcar Sportsman teams to the Sunshine State for an action-packed week of racing. Last year, Larry Wight stole the show, sweeping all three nights of competition to establish himself as the first driver to conquer the DTD TV Showdown.
The event features both divisions competing under the DIRTcar rules package, including Hoosier tires. For Modified teams making the trip south, the Showdown provides an opportunity to get valuable track time while utilizing the same engine and rules package for the following week’s DIRTcar Nationals at Volusia Speedway Park.
Sportsman teams competing under the DIRTcar rules package will also return to All-Tech Raceway for another opportunity to take on the fast, challenging Florida oval. Last year, Avery Decker, Richard Murtaugh III, and Jessica Power won the three night affair.
The four-night event kicks off with open practice on Wednesday, February 10, followed by three nights of racing Thursday, February 11, through Saturday, February 13.
Big-Block Modified teams will compete in 40-lap feature events each night, with $5,000 going to the winner. Sportsman competitors will battle in 25-lap features, with a $2,000 winner’s payday on the line each night.
Full event schedules, including starting times and admission prices, will be announced in the coming weeks.
For fans unable to make the trip to All-Tech Raceway, each night’s racing program will be broadcast live on Dirt Track Digest TV, bringing all the action from the DTD TV Showdown directly to viewers at home.
