Story By: TOBY LAGRANGE / GLEN RIDGE MOTORSPORTS PARK – FULTONVILLE, NY – The Yurkewecz Auto Crushers DIRTcar Pro Stock division has become one of the most popular divisions in the northeast. No place is that truer than at the Glen Ridge Motorsports Park.
In addition to the weekly purse and the healthy season ending points fund, the stars and cars of the Yurkewecz Auto Crushers DIRTcar Pro Stock division will be racing for a bit extra every week at The Ridge.
Glove City Transportation, along with owner Lare Orcutt will be presenting a back-to-back winner’s bonus for the division. The “Glove City Transportation Back-to-Back Bonus” will award those drivers who win back-to-back feature events an extra $100. The award is in place for each of the events in 2023.
Orcutt and Glove City Transportation are no stranger to the racing scene as they are a sponsor of defending and now five-time DIRTcar Pro Stock division track champion Luke Horning.
The Yurkewecz Auto Crushers DIRTcar Pro Stock division will be on the card every week during the 2023 racing season. They will also compete in the Pro Stock Battle For The Crown mini-series, which consists of the three big events for the division in 2023. Those events include the Silver Fox Showdown (in memory of Don Warner) on May 21st, the $2,500 to win Robert “Fluff” Hagen Memorial on June 25th and the Ridge Runner 30 (DIRTcar Pro Stock Series event) on August 27th.
