BREWERTON, NY – The headline DIRTcar Modifieds will be highlighted with a hotly contested track championship point battle this Friday August 17 at Brewerton Speedway on Syracuse Crunch Night. Also in race action will be the IMCA Modifieds, ESDCA Mod Lites, 4-Cylinder Super Stocks, and 4-Cylinder Enduro racers. Race time at “The D-Shaped DIRT Demon” is set for 7:30pm sharp.
The DIRTcar Modified division has a points battle for the track title likely to go down to the last lap on the final point night of August 31. Alan Johnson, now driving the 358-powered Deek Decker Deuce at Brewerton, just took over the point lead from Willy Decker who did not finish the race on August 10. Decker is just eleven points behind Johnson who is looking for his fifth track championship in the last six seasons. Third in the standings is young Pennsylvania driver Kevin Bates who has been a model of consistency this season. Chuck Bower and Jim Witko are the remainder of the top five and have a mathematical shot at the top prize. Without a doubt, drivers will be racing for every point possible in the last 3 point races.
Kevan Cook leads the IMCA Modified point standings with national points leader Dale Caswell within striking distance. Pete Anderson, Greg Kimball, and Rich Riggs are the remainder of the top five. Dan Williams leads the ESDCA Mod Lite points but brother Doug is just eleven points back. The brothers will battle for the track title as the final stretch of points racing begins. Claude Hutchings Jr. is looking for his first ever track title in the 4-Cylinder Super Stocks as is Josh Herbert in the 4-Cylinder Enduros.
The gates this Friday August 17 at Brewerton Speedway on Syracuse Crunch Night will open at 5:30pm with racing beginning at 7:30pm.
