WEEDSPORT, NY (March 6, 2025) – Weedsport’s Pit Stop Convenience Store is set to return as the official fuel provider of all events at Weedsport Kartway in 2025.
Located at 9036 N. Seneca St. in Weedsport, less than one mile from Weedsport Kartway, all competitors are once again asked to fill their fuel jugs at the Weedsport Pit Stop ahead of each event, as the day’s fuel testing sample will be taken from this location.
Pit Stop will again provide five $50 gift cards to be randomly awarded to Kartway members at all nine events this season, a value of $2,250. The kartway’s season ending award ceremony will also be presented by Pit Stop.
The first Pit Stop Convenience Store was opened in Weedsport in 1984 and since that time Pit Stop Convenience Stores have been committed to providing excellent service. Since 1984, 15 more stores have opened throughout Central New York, with each striving to be the hometown convenience store in the communities they serve.
To learn more about Pit Stop Convenience Stores and to find all of their locations, visit online at www.pitstopc-stores.com.
Weedsport Kartway’s 2025 season will open on April 25-27 with Spring Meltdown Weekend. A Friday night open practice will be held on April 25 before two consecutive days of racing fill the remainder of the weekend.

About Weedsport Speedway: Officially opened for the first time on July 24, 1955 – the Weedsport Speedway 3/8 mile dirt oval has produced a legendary list of drivers and champions including Will Cagle, Danny Johnson, Bob McCreadie, Alan Johnson, Jack Johnson, and Dave Lape to name a few. In 2018, Weedsport introduced the all-new Weedsport Kartway, just outside of the Speedway’s main pit area, to begin to foster the next generation of racers, crew members and race fans. Couple the racing with state-of-the-art camping and track amenities, unmatched on-site television production capabilities, plus the ability for large scale concert productions and Weedsport is one of the marquee entertainment venues in the country.
