Pro Stocks Join Independence Holiday Show At Rolling Wheels Raceway

Elbridge, NY – June 22, 2006 – By Tom Skibinski, DIRT NorthEast PR Director

DIRT track action returns to Rolling Wheels Raceway during the extended Independence holiday weekend keeping in line with the unique specials-only format that the ‘Fast track’ has enjoyed for nearly a quarter-century.

Headlining the upcoming show presented by Ferris Industries, Town Mechancal, Dig Safely New York and the Stafford Auto Group on July 3 will be the 35^th Annual Firecracker Championship, standing as round number nine in the 2006 Advance Auto Parts Super DIRT Series for the mighty Modifieds. Big-block teams will be in search of the $6,000 first-place prize in the 100-lap feature finale while the top area DIRT Sportsman and DIRT Pro Stock entries will be contending in their own $600-to-win main events with a huge fireworks display closing out the Monday night festivities. *Mod Lites will NOT be in competition as listed on the original 2006 RWR schedule.

Only three more weekends remain during Rolling Wheels’ 38^th consecutive season of operation. The traditional Robert N. Petrocci Memorial/Advance Auto Parts SDS race highlights the Labor Day Weekend with a Mr. DIRT Sportsman Series event and a complete program of Street Stock races filling the traditional Monday evening program.

This year set to run on Friday and Saturday, the all-star World Series of DIRT Track Racing weekend, Sept. 22-23, will once more attract the finest Modified, 358-Modified, Sportsman and Pro Stock entries in Super DIRT Series competition. Another appearance by Street Stock teams on day one completes the two-day autumn classic with the Advance Auto Parts Modifieds expected to take the green flag and begin the double-century grind near sunset on Saturday.

The Super DIRT Week Shootout in October at Rolling Wheels will once again lure big fields and attract standing-room-only crowds. The 100-lap Mr. DIRT 358-Modified Series special and a Mr. DIRT Sportsman Series event top the Oct. 6 card while the 25-lap ESS/URC/Patriot Challenge for winged sprinters completes the Oct. 7 program.
