ANDY FAYASH MEMORIAL FOR SPORTSMAN, DIAMOND SHINES 40 FOR WOO LATE MODELS HIGHLIGHT JUNE AT BIG DIAMOND SPEEDWAY

MINERSVILLE, PA - June 9th, 2014

Two huge events highlight the month of June at Big Diamond Speedway starting this coming Friday, June 13th, with the biggest event of the year for the Sportsman division.  The 2nd Annual ANDY FAYASH MEMORIAL puts the USS Achey Sportsman in the spotlight on this evening.  Last years winner Tim Fitzpatrick walked away with over $2,400 in cash and prizes for his victory in the then 45 lap event, and this year the payout could be even more lucrative.  This years race is set for 30 laps for $3,000 to win and $157 to take the green as long as 26 or more cars sign in for competition.  If less than 26 cars compete, the winners share is still an impressive $1,570 to win.  Also included in the nights events will be a special cash dash with a total purse of $500 courtesy of Mike Radocha.  Details of the cash dash will be disclosed after the feature event is complete on Friday evening.  All Sportsman cars from other speedways are welcome to compete with their home track rules package.  Only Hoosier D300 or harder tires and American Racer 44 or harder (Left Rear) and 48 or harder (Right Rear) are legal for this event.  Steel or aluminum wheels are legal.  Regular body style or sail panels are legal.  VP Racing Fuel must be used and transponders are mandetory.  Grandstand general admission for this race is $20.00 per person.  Kids 12 and under are free.  Pit participation fees will be $30.00 for members and $40.00 for non-members.  This is a very special night at the track in honor of a great man and great racer that left us much too soon.  We hope every comes out to support this wonderful evening of racing.

Also on the card that night will be the Hoosier Tire Mid-Atlantic DIRTcar 358 Modifieds and Savage 61 Roadrunners.  For the Roadrunner division, this will be a non-points event.

Then on Tuesday night, June 24th it's the return of the World of Outlaws Late Model Series to Big Diamond Speedway.  This will be the first appearance of the World of Outlaw Late Models at Big Diamond since June 24th, 2009 when Josh Richards took home the victory in the "Coal Country 40" feature event.  This years "Diamond Shines 40" pays $8,000 to win and $600 just to take the green in the feature event.  Current series point leader and four time winner Darrell Lanigan leads the World of Outlaw contingent into town.  Also expected are Pennsylvania's own Rick Eckert and Chub Frank, Tim McCreadie, Shane Clanton, Morgan Bagley, Eric Wells, Clint Smith, Frankie Heckenast Jr., Chase Junghans, Rick 'Boom' Briggs, and many more.  A strong local turnout of Late Model talent is also expected to challenge for the top prize.  Hoosier 1300 1325 and 1450 tires along with American Racer 44 and 53 tires will be the only compounds allowed for this event.  The Savage 61 Roadrunners will also be in action in a 20 lap points event.  Grandstand general admission will be $30.00, with kids 12 and under free.  Pit gates open at 4:00 PM, and grandstand gates open at 5:00 PM.

Mark it on your calendars now - these are two great events you do not want to miss.
