Ferris To Present Exciting Action Saturday At Fulton

Story By: DAVE MEDLER / FULTON SPEEDWAY – FULTON, NY – Side by side high speed racing action the Fulton Speedway is known for will return this Saturday night May 6, as Ferris Mowers presents American Diabetes of Central New York night.

Longtime supporter of the Fulton Speedway, Ferris Industries will present a night of racing, featuring the Tracey Road Equipment DIRTcar Modifieds, SUNY Canton DIRTcar Sportsman, Billy Whittaker Cars & Trux RUSH Late Models, E&V Energy Novice Sportsman and the JB Logging & Firewood 4-Cylinders.

Adult grandstand admission will be $12 with everyone 18 years old and younger FREE, pits are $27 member, $30 non-member. Gates will open at 5:00 with racing at 7:00.

Larry Wight will be looking to defend his 2016 Tracey Road Equipment DIRTcar Modified track championship. A strong field is expected to try and take away Wight’s title. That includes Jimmy Phelps, Pat Ward, Chris Hile, Tom Sears Jr., Tim Sears Jr., Tim Kerr, Billy Whittaker, Chad Phelps, Mike Bowman and others.

Ron Davis III will have the tall task of defending his 2016 SUNY Canton DIRTcar Sportsman championship. In 2016 over 80 drivers attempted to qualify for at least one points show.

New weekly racer in the Billy Whittaker Cars & Trux RUSH Late Models Chad Homan served notice on April 29 that he will be a contender picking up the first feature win at the Fulton Speedway. Chris Fleming will be looking to make it three track championships in a row. The weekly racing gets tougher and tougher so it’s anyone’s guess who will be hoisting the championship trophy at the end of the season.

The E&V Energy Novice Sportsman field keeps growing and putting on good racing. In 2016 the skills of the division improved where ‘Novice’ didn’t fit in the class on a lot of nights.

The JB Logging & Firewood 4-Cylinders will continue to put on exciting racing on the ‘Highbanks.’ In 2016 it came down to the final point’s night to decide a champion that saw Dakota Bechler take home the crown.
