Broderick Strong In Whip City Season Debut.
By Toby LaGrange
Brookfield, CT. - With their 2007 Maxim, 360 cubic inch powered Sprint Car all ready for the seasons first green flag – the Broderick Racing Team was forced to wait another week before starting their second season on the Lucas Oil ASCS Patriot Sprint Series. Mother Nature forced the cancellation of the season opening event at the Black Rock Speedway.
The decision was made by track and series representatives on Thursday giving the team, with driver Jimmy “Bubba” Broderick time to make other plans. Those plans included putting the finishing touches on the 1200 cc Mini Sprint and heading over to the their old stomping grounds - the Whip City Speedway in Massachusetts. The Saturday night event was the tracks season opener.
Broderick looked strong right out of the trailer, starting tenth in the heat race and when the checkers flew he was credited with a third place finish. The good heat race run put the many time Whip City feature winner in the third row for the feature event. In the feature Bubba ran a smooth race and came home with a second place finish.
The Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Series will open their season Friday night at the Albany-Saratoga Speedway, located on Rt. 9 in Malta, NY.
Sponsorship will come from Arbitell Convenience Stores, Brownie's Towing, Design Maintenance, Four Winds Farm, Fyne Line Construction, Kortko Insurance, Lasco Roofing, Northeast Carpet, Precision Automotive and 20/20 Air.
