Story By: DAVE MEDLER / FULTON SPEEDWAY – FULTON, NY – This Saturday, August 31 you can get your need for speed as part of your Labor Day Weekend at the Fulton Speedway presented by major marketing partner DOT Foods and Power Seal Driveway Sealing.
Fan favorite Lucas Oil Empire Super Sprints will do battle on the ‘Highbanks’ behind the wheel of their methanol eating, clay slinging, winged beasts.
Championships will be decided for off-season bragging rights and momentum going into season ending, extra distance high paying events in the Tracey Road Equipment DIRTcar Modifieds, DOT Foods DIRTcar Sportsman, Billy Whittaker Cars & Trux RUSH Late Models and the E&V Energy Novice Sportsman will be on the race card.
Sportsman racer Tom Juno owner of Power Seal Driveway Sealing will also be having a dash with a very unique format open to the Power Seal Six to compete. Drivers are Tom Juno, Tyler Corcoran, Corey Barker, Dylan Zacharias, Chris Mackey and Alan Fink.
The dash will pay $200 to the winner with all drivers getting paid. The crazy Backwards Dash will see the cars race in the opposite direction on the speedway.
Cars pitting in the midway has been very popular with race fans of all ages. This Saturday, Tom Juno, Tyler Corcoran and Corey Barker will be doing just that so fans can see up close what goes on during a race night.
Not only will there be a fantastic night of racing, but we will be able to help our furry friends who have no voice and count on people like us to give them the love and care they deserve.
When you come in the main gate in the midway there will be a silent auction to benefit Bernard’s Beagle Rescue and Misfits Animal Rescue & Sanctuary. Representatives from both will be there to answer questions and see how you can help beyond the silent auction.
