TRICK OR TREATING PLANNED FOR BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY’S BILL THOMAS MEMORIAL

Bridgeport, NJ (October 21, 2013) – On Saturday, October 26 at 
Bridgeport Speedway’s Bill Thomas Memorial, plenty of fun will be in 
store for fans of all ages. For children, a trick or treat session 
will be held prior to the racing as the drivers will bring their cars 
behind the main grandstand and will distribute candy to the kids.

On the quarter mile track, the IPM Pest Management 600cc Micro-Sprints 
and 270cc Micro-Sprints will share top billing as the winner of each 
30-lap feature will take home $1000. The take the green money for each 
main event in the micro-sprint classes will be $80. This special event 
honors the late William “Bill” Thomas IV.  Thomas was a huge supporter 
of Micro-Sprint racing at Bridgeport Speedway and passed away on 
October 23, 2010 after a brave battle with cancer. Also, each 
finishing position in the Micro-Sprint classes will be sponsored.  The 
cash collected in this endeavor will be added to the attractive purse. 
To date, several finishing positions have been sponsored at greater 
than the $10 stated minimum.  To get your company involved, pass on 
best wishes to your favorite driver, or recognize one of your sponsors 
in a special manner, contact Mike Wisniewski at mike@bpspeedway.com 
for additional information. Car entry forms for the Micro-Sprints are 
available at www.bpspeedway.com under the driver forms tab. A time 
trial format will be used to set lineups for the heat races for the 
Micro-Sprint classes.

In addition, the 4-Cylinder Enduro Cars will race for an enhanced 
purse through the efforts of Black Flagged Racing and Scott Dunn Auto 
Service. If 16 or more cars are entered, the winner in this division 
will go home with $300. The Delaware Chargers and Super Trucks are 
invited to participate in this event.

The Slingshots by Tobias will be returning to the inner oval at 
Bridgeport Speedway and a $500 payday is available to the top finisher 
if a minimum of twenty cars are on hand. The big racing card will be 
rounded out by the Garden State Vintage Stock Cars and an 8-Cylinder 
Enduro contest.
