Schedule
On November 5, 2019, NASCAR announced the 2020 Whelen Modified Tour schedule. Among the 17 races was an inaugural stop at Iowa Speedway and returns to Jennerstown Speedway Complex and Martinsville Speedway.[1] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however, the Martinsville date was cancelled, and many of the early-season races were postponed.[2] An initial version of a revised schedule had Myrtle Beach Speedway hosting the season-opening race on June 6, but that date was eventually moved to Jennerstown and rescheduled for June 21.[3] Two events at White Mountain Motorsports Park and an event at Monadnock Speedway were also added to the revised schedule.[4][5]
