Fonda and Utica-Rome Speedways announced the introduction of new 358-Modified racing events for the 2025 season. The series will feature six total races - four at Utica-Rome and two at Fonda Speedway, scheduled on non-conflicting dates with other regional tracks.

The events will follow Can-Am Motorsports rules, allowing DIRTcar 358, W-16, and CT 525 engines to compete. This expansion aims to welcome new competitors while maintaining the existing Modified division at both tracks.

• Fonda Speedway: Open Practice (April 12), Season Opener (April 19)
• Utica-Rome Speedway: Open Practice (April 11), Season Opener (April 13)
