Pre-Season American Racer Cup Tire Drawing To Take Place March 16th

Story By: BRETT DEYO / AMERICAN RACER CUP – INDIANA, PA – Free tires? Yes, it is true, courtesy of the American Racer Cup presented by Sunoco. The annual pre-season tire giveaway is coming up on March 16 for all drivers registered to that point in both the Modified and Sportsman programs.

Four names will be drawn from both the Modified and Sportsman registrants during the pre-race drivers’ meeting at Georgetown (Del.) Speedway for the Melvin L. Joseph Memorial. The drawing will be shown live on the American Racer Cup Facebook page.

Each of the four drivers in both divisions will receive a complimentary tire certificate. Recipients do not need to be present at Georgetown to win.

Already, drivers have benefited from their membership this season. Cory Costa (Modified) and Bob Butcher (Sportsman) won November drawings at the Northeast Race Products Show in Syracuse, N.Y. At the Motorsports Racecar & Trade Show in Oaks, Pa., this past January, Matt Stangle (Modified) & Derrick McGrew Jr. (Sportsman) were the recipients.

A total of 14 facilities have united under the American Racer Cup presented by Sunoco banner for the ’19 season, with drivers sharing in $51,450 in cash point fund money and more than 500 tire certificates.

The ’19 edition of the American Racer Cup gets underway on Friday, April 12 and runs through Labor Day weekend.

Once again, the American Racer Cup and Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series have paired up for hefty Sunoco Race Fuels Bonuses. Should a driver with the Short Track Super Series Modified North and South Regions plus the American Racer Cup, that driver will earn a $25,000 cash bonus. Should one driver with the Short Track Super Series North or South Region plus the American Racer Cup, a $10,000 bonus will await that driver.
