Seven-Race Crate Sportsman Series Announced For Outlaw Speedway In 2019
Story By: KENNY SHUPP / OUTLAW SPEEDWAY – DUNDEE, NY – For the second consecutive year, Outlaw Speedway track owner, Tyler Siri is pleased to announce that the Yates County Speed Plant will play host to the Outlaw Speedway American Racer Tire Sunrise Insulation Crate Sportsman Series.
Each event in the 2019 seven race series event will pay $1,500 to the winner with a nice purse structure from second on back. At the completion of the series the overall point champion will pick-up an additional $2,000.
By winning five of the six series events staged in 2018, Dave Marcuccilli was crowned the inaugural champion of the Outlaw Speedway American Racer Crate Sportsman Series
In addition, at each event there will be tire give-a-ways compliments of American Racer Tire along with other products contingencies.
“For the second year we are teaming up with American Racer Tire to put this deal together for the Sunrise Insulation Crate Sportsman, stated track owner, Tyler Siri. The racers overwhelmingly supported this series last year and we hope to make 2019 even better yet. By repeating this 7 race series for 2019 it gives the drivers that compete in this class a chance to race for some serious dollars several times a year, not just a couple isolated events. Even outsiders that don’t normally compete at Outlaw on a regular basis can now jump into the game and run the series and have a chance to not only win big the night of the event, but also at the end of the year with the nice point fund we have put together. With the money that the track is putting up along with all the American Racer Tire give-a-ways as well as other product contingencies this entire package adds up some pretty big dollars that the Crate Sportsman will be racing for.”
The first event is scheduled for Saturday, April 13 as part of the tracks Dutch Hoag Memorial make-up held over from last year. The following week will mark series event number 2 during the 4th Annual Spring Nationals.
Event number 3 will be held on May 7 in conjunction with the Super Dirtcar Series featuring the Big Block Modifieds.
