American Racer 602 Crate Sportsman Series Announced For Outlaw Speedway
Story By: KENNY SHUPP / OUTLAW SPEEDWAY – DUNDEE, NY – For the third 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.
All the events in the 2020 five race series will pay $1,500 to the winner with a nice purse structure from second on back.
By winning five of the six series events staged in 2018, Dave Marcuccelli was crowned the inaugural champion of the Outlaw Speedway American Racer Crate Sportsman Series.
In 2019, Outlaw Speedway weekly competitor, Tommy Collins Jr. was crowned Champion of the American Racer Tire 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 third 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 in both 2018 and 2019 and we hope to make 2020 even better yet. By repeating this five-race series for 2020 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 11 as part of the Lucas Oil Nationals.
Event number two will be held on the following weekend, April 17 in conjunction with the 5th Annual Cindy Lane Spring Nationals.
Race three is scheduled for Wednesday, May 13 as part of the Brett Deyo promoted Short Track Super Series event.

In addition, there will be two DIRTcar Hoosier Tire events that will pay a handsome $1,500 to the winner of each event with the first being held on Saturday, April 11 in junction with the Lucas Oil Nationals. The second event is scheduled for Friday, September 25 as part of the Fall Nationals
