Claremont Motorsports Park opens 2026 with Saint Valentine’s Classic Feb. 28

Claremont Motorsports Park will officially open its 2026 racing season on Saturday, February 28, when the fifth annual Saint Valentine’s Day Classic, also billed as the Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre, returns to the snow-covered speedway in Claremont, New Hampshire. "Claremont Motorsports Park officially launches its 2026 racing season on Saturday, February 28th, with the running of the annual St. Valentine’s Day Classic," the track announced on its MyRacePass news block dated February 22, 2026.

Organizers describe the Feb. 28 card as an "action-packed afternoon of Enduro-style racing on the snow-covered speedway," with the day beginning with a Side-by-Side Event "open to all side-by-side vehicles," according to a MyRaceNews summary of the event. MyRacePass registration pages list specific classes for the event and season, including 4cyl/6cyl/8cyl Enduro entries, AWD Enduro, and Side X Sides, while season registration pages also show Tour Type Late Models, Outlaws, Super Streets, Mini Stocks, Six Shooters, Pure Stocks and Ridge Runners.

Drivers and teams still see registration prompts on the MyRacePass platform; the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre registration block displays the system notice "Saint Valentine's Day Massacre, REGISTRATION CLOSES: 4d 15h (2/28/2026 12:00:00 AM CST)." MyRacePass also lists Claremont’s "NEXT EVENT" as Saturday, February 28, 2026, reinforcing the track’s public schedule, and the site invites competitors to use the MyRacePass app to find Claremont Motorsports Park and to scan a QR code for entries.

The Feb. 28 season opener arrives as part of a broader push: a Nov. 20, 2025 announcement from Claremont and MDP Motorsports Promotions laid out an "ambitious 30+ event schedule for the 2026 race season." The track has also signaled a return to national sanctioning when it posted a press-style release fragment reading "FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / Daytona Beach, Fla., It was announced today that Claremont Motorsports Park will officially return to the NASCAR fold beginning with the 2026 racing season," language that appears on the Claremont site alongside other February news items.

Claremont’s own site has been active through February, with a 2/19/2026 post headlined "HERE WE GROW AGAIN!" and a personnel teaser that reads "Claremont, New Hampshire, Claremont Motorsports Park is excited to welcome Chris LaClair to our team for the 2026 season! ???? Chris will be handling all race day social media cove..." The Feb. 28 Saint Valentine’s Day Classic/Massacre will function as the public launch for that 30+ event slate and the track’s announced return to NASCAR-affiliated weekly racing, with registration and "Next Event" notices live now on MyRacePass.
