'Clash at the Can' RoC Modified Winner Won't Leave
Hungry; Harford Subway Offers Victor Six-Foot Sub for Penn Can Speedway Tuesday,
June 12 Spectacular; Souvenir Program Book Will Be Published
SUSQUEHANNA, PA - The winner of Penn Can
Speedway's rich 'Clash at the Can' won't go away hungry.
The Harford, Pa., Subway store will provide a six-foot sub to the winner of the Race of Champions Dirt Modified Tour big-block/small-block Modified event on Tuesday, June 12. The 60-lap event, sponsored by VP Racing Fuels and Pioneer Pole Buildings Inc., offers an all-time high $10,000 to the winner. Race of Champions Street Stocks join the powerful Modifieds for the two-division program.
"Making history, one dollar at a time" is the theme of the co-promotion involving Brett Deyo and track managers Al Wilcox and Reed Miller. The total purse is the most lucrative since the Susquehanna County facility was constructed in 1952.
The Harford Subway is located at the Liberty Travel Plaza off Interstate 81 Exit 217. The Liberty Travel Plaza offers gasoline and diesel along with a convenience store open 24 hours per day. The Liberty Travel Plaza guarantees the lowest cash price for diesel on the interstate from the New York State border to the I-80 interchange in Hazelton, Pa.
The Subway store is open 7 a.m.-10 p.m. Monday-Thursday and Saturday and 7 a.m.-11 p.m. Friday and Sunday.
For the first time, a souvenir program book will be
produced for the 'Clash at the Can' event. The 28-page program will be published
by AARN Publishing of Trenton, N.J., the producers of Area Auto Racing
News. It will be 28 pages with full color covers and eight total pages of
color. BD Motorsports Media will manage advertising, content and distribution of
the program. All advertisers will receive a free lap sponsorship, offering added
exposure. Contact Brett Deyo at 845.728.2781 or Deyo99H@aol.com for advertising rates.
The winner of the 'Clash at the Can' earns a guaranteed starting berth in the Sept. 29 Outlaw 200 at N.Y.'s Fulton Speedway, an event paying $20,000 to the winner.

Thanks to Trackside Products of Endicott, N.Y., leading lap 30 - the halfway mark - of the RoC Modified event will be lucrative. The halfway leader will have the option of two prizes: a 55-gallon drum of VP Racing Fuels C12 gasoline or two drums of VP Racing Fuels M1 methanol. The halfway prizes are valued at approximately $500 cash.
A number of contingency sponsors have come on board for the event, including Trackside Products, Shiley Fabrication, S&D Bodyline, American Racer/Lias Tire, MTL Motorsports, S&W Awards and more.
The 'Clash at the Can' will offer combination points on the Race of Champions Dirt Modified Tour title race of 2012. Two regions will comprise the '12 RoC schedule. At the 'Clash at the Can' fans will enjoy stars of the North and South colliding in an epic short-track battle.
In its two previous runnings, the 'Clash at the Can' main event has evolved into a standoff between Modified superstars and weekend warriors.
Last June, it was eventual RoC champion Billy Decker,
driving John Wight's Gypsum Racing No. 91, besting Accord (N.Y.) Speedway
weekend racer Danny Tyler of Cottekill, N.Y. The upstart Tyler led much of the
event, proved a formidable match for Decker and guided his family owned No. 22
home to second.
The star of the '10 'Clash at the Can' was Carbondale,
Pa.-based Penn Can regular Brett Tonkin, whose No. 15 repelled the advances of
eventual victor Duane Howard of Oley, Pa., using the outside lane.
Penn Can's racy one-third-mile layout has proven a great
equalizer: expensive and powerful engines aren't the key to success. The surface
is tire-wear-friendly. Truly "anyone" can take $10,000 home from this show!
