Story By: DAVE MEDLER / FULTON SPEEDWAY – FULTON, NY – Come to the Fulton Speedway on Saturday, July 1 for a night of racing excitement while helping Bernard’s Beagle Rescue in a silent auction and dunking booth presented by Jammer’s Sports Bar & Restaurant, and Stirling Lubricants.
The highly anticipated Empire Super Sprints Speedweek will invade the ‘Highbanks’ with the best 360 Sprint Car drivers from the Northeast, plus the Canadian Provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
Tracey Road DIRTcar Modifieds, DOT Foods DIRTcar Sportsman, E&V Energy Novice Sportsman, Billy Whittaker Cars & Trux Hobby Stocks, will make for a big night of highspeed thrills.
Camping is free on the south side of the pit road only. Please clean up before you leave.
We all know if one thing goes together, it is racing people and their pets. Not all our furry friends are as fortunate as the ones we have at home. When there is a need, the racing family always steps up in a big way.
Come early and check out all the awesome items up for auction from individuals, race teams, track marketing partners, and businesses who all know there is a big need to help.
To facilitate Bernard’s beagle rescue fundraisers, the gates will swing open slightly earlier than 5:00 PM at 4:50 PM
Arrive early and visit the midway to participate in the “Dunk for Dogs”. From 5 to 6 pm, various drivers and racing personalities will take their turns sitting in the hot seat of a dunk tank supplied by E & V Energy Novice Sportsman racer Rick Kinney and Rick’s Party Rental. Fans and other racers can take their shot at dunking by purchasing 3 balls for $5. All proceeds go to Bernard’s Beagle Rescue.
At the time of release, Tracey Road Equipment Modified drivers Andrew Ferguson and David Marcuccilli and Dot Foods Sportsman drivers Savannah Laflair and Jason Parkhurst Jr. plus race director Tim Farrell have committed to be ‘Dunkees’ in support of Bernard’s Beagle Rescue. A few additional drivers will be announced.
What goes better on a hot summer day than lemonade? ‘Lil’ Lightning Kids will be selling cold lemonade pouches with all proceeds going to Bernard’s Beagle Rescue. The pouches are reusable.
A thank-you goes out to Tracey Road DIRTcar Modified racer CJ Castelletti for donating a bike to be given away to a Jr. Fan.
The Empire Super Sprints opened their 2023 season at the speedway in April and returned on Memorial Day weekend. Two local favorites took wins with Jason Barney victorious, winning the series opener and Sammy Reakes IV going to victory lane in May.
