Got $8? You Can Attend The Short Track SuperNationals; 'Working Man's Race' At Five Mile Point Oct. 8 Offers Unmatched Fan Affordability
KIRKWOOD, NY - The Short Track SuperNationals is dubbed the 'Working Man's Race' for several reasons.

Foremost, the event provides weekend dirt Modified racers with an opportunity to compete for a large payout on Columbus Day weekend without the presence of higher-financed touring series teams. However, Short Track SuperNationals is also known for its affordable pricing. Once again, the Oct. 8 event at Five Mile Point Speedway is one of the most affordable dirt Modified events of the year for race fans!

For just $40, a family of five can attend the SuperNationals and eat/drink! The 'Family Five Pack' offers two Adult tickets, three Youth (ages 13-17) or Senior (ages 62 and over) tickets plus five hot dogs and five sodas. Do the math: it's just $8 per person!

Tickets purchased individually are also well below the industry norm for Modified special events. Adults are $18, Youth and Seniors are $14 and Kids 12 and under are FREE.

"We're proud of the tradition of affordability we've built with this race," said event promoter Brett Deyo. "This is a race people have come to look forward to all year and can bring their family along without breaking the bank."

Pit admission is $30 for the Saturday event (Oct. 8) while Friday night's (Oct. 7) open practice is $20.

The fourth running of the Short Track SuperNationals is headlined by a 50-lap big-block/small-block Modified event paying $5,000 to the winner with a $20 "gambler's fee" plus bonuses and lap money. The event offers $300 to take the green flag - an increase of $100 over last season - thanks to a marketing agreement with Pioneer Pole Buildings Inc. of Schuylkill Haven, Pa.

Trackside Products Race of Champions Street Stocks (25 laps), a Four Cylinder Open (18 laps) and a Figure Eight World Championship paying $1,000 to win complete the "split program" which will see support-division qualifying take place in the afternoon. The entire Modified portion of the show is reserved for the evening.

Joining Pioneer Pole Buildings as corporate partners of the event include VP Racing Fuels, Alpine Building & Post Supply, Bob Hilbert Sportswear and Trackside Products.

In its four-year existence, the SuperNationals has gained a reputation as a racer- and fan-friendly event. A healthy purse and open rules package annually attracts a diverse cross-section of talented weekend racers to do battle at the wide and racy quarter-mile oval while a capacity crowd looks on at the historic facility.

Last year, Modified upstart Justin Holland of White Lake, N.Y., shocked the 72-car field, holding off Billy Pauch Jr. of Frenchtown, N.J., for the SuperNationals victory, bringing home cash and prizes totaling nearly $7,000! Kevin Hirthler of Boyertown, Pa., was the 2009 SuperNationals victor and Mike Ricci of Rosendale, N.Y., topped the inaugural at Afton (N.Y.) Speedway in 2006.

A $1,000 cash bonus for the Modifieds is in place should one driver win both the SuperNationals at Five Mile Point on Saturday (Oct. 8) and the new 'Outlaw 100' event at Brewerton (N.Y.) Speedway on Thursday night (Oct. 6). The highest-finishing driver from Brewerton's Thursday field not to qualify at Five Mile Point Saturday will be added to the main event.

Special awards and bonuses are adding up for the SuperNationals and have been posted with complete race information, rules, pricing and more on the event website: www.bdmotorsportsmedia.com. Lap sponsorships are on sale at $20 per lap and can be obtained by e-mailing Brett Deyo at Deyo99H@aol.com.

All racing activity will be held on the Saturday portion (Oct. 8) of the program, eliminating hotel costs for budget-minded race teams. Friday night (Oct. 7) will be reserved for an open practice session from 6-9 p.m.

Entry forms have been posted on the official event website: www.bdmotorsportsmedia.com. Early registration runs through Sept. 25 at $15. After Sept. 25, the registration fee increases to $20.
