First-Ever Winter Enduro a Success at Hudson International Speedway

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Hudson, NH — 1/20/26 - Hudson International Speedway successfully kicked off a brand-new chapter in track history with the first-ever Winter Enduro, drawing competitors and supporters from across New England and beyond.

Drivers traveled from all over including Rhode Island and New York to take part in the inaugural winter event, showcasing strong regional interest and enthusiasm for the new Enduro program. The event featured just under 40 Two-Wheel Drive entries and about 10 All-Wheel Drive entries, an impressive turnout for a first-time winter race.

To ensure a smooth and efficient program, track officials made in-event adjustments to the race format. The All-Wheel Drive Enduro was shortened to 25 laps, while the Two-Wheel Drive feature was extended to 75 laps, allowing AWD competitors to join the 2WD race (not eligible for placement). The changes helped maintain race flow while providing competitors with additional track time.

“Any first-time event comes with its challenges, especially in winter conditions,” track management stated. “Overall, we’re proud of how the day went and thankful to the drivers, crews, and fans who supported this event. We’re excited to continue growing this into a winter tradition at Hudson.”
