     Weedsport, NY | Official Website

Weedsport, NY – May 28, 2007 – By Tom Skibinski, Cayuga County Fair Speedway PR Director



Its K&S Car Wash $20 CARLOAD night at Cayuga County Fair Speedway on June 3 with a jam-packed, five-division race card plus the first Beer Belly & Ugly Truck Contest highlight the evening show.



The Sunday night program features a fast-paced card of Big-Block Modifieds, Sportsman Modifieds, Street Stocks and BattleKarz plus a special appearance by the New York Modified Midgets in a series event. Qualifying heat races are scheduled to start at 7 o’clock with spectator gates swinging open at 5 p.m. and pit gates unlocking at 4 p.m. for all competitors.



Only the rain and steady front-runner Jimmy Phelps have kept Danny Johnson from improving on his perfect 3-for-3 record in the Modified ranks at The Port in ’07. Phelps leads the current CCFS point standings after four feature events while Johnson also trails runner-up Steve Paine despite missing one show in the early going. Local favorite Vince Vitale and weekly Pennsylvania invader Butch Tittle remain in close pursuit.



A near opposite outlook has been taken in the companion DIRTcar Sportsman division as four different winners have emerged in as many main events run at the high-banked 3/8-miler. Jeremy Pitcher heads the standings after one 20-lap triumph as more than a third of the field remains equipped with crate motors. A weekly $100 bonus award remains available for any driver using a crate power plant able to take home a checkered flag.



Cayuga County’s full-fender competition has been a near mirror-image of the Sportsman with only one repeat winner in eight main events. Dave Marcuccilli, Dave Mannise, Phil Marsden and Nick Rizzo have each cracked victory lane in the DIRTcar Street Stock ranks while Bill Werner (2), Jon Shumway and Karl Werner have salvaged early-season BattleKarz wins through Memorial Day.



5-PAK ticket packages continue to be available for all regular events at Cayuga County and sister track Canandaigua (NY) Speedway . Providing a great deal for fans, each 5-PAK of tickets can be purchased for $48.00 which results in the receipt of (1) free ticket. The regular show admission is just $12 for adults (15-64 yrs.), $10 for Seniors (65 yrs. & older) and $5 for youths (10-14 yrs.) while children 9 yrs. & under are free.
