Several Key Sponsors Put Together $4,000 Purse For Brewerton / Fulton Sportsman Challenge August 17th

Story By: DAVE MEDLER / BREWERTON & FULTON SPEEDWAY – BALDWINSVILLE, NY – While missed as a competitor, Tom Juno, through his familiar Power Seal Driveway Sealing Company, remains a steadfast supporter of racing at the Fulton and Brewerton Speedways. He has again organized a lucrative event for Fulton and Brewerton DOT Foods DIRTcar Sportsman to be held, Saturday, August 17.
Joined again by fellow paving and sealing professional AJ Martino from Tarvia Seal, Juno has also enlisted support from DnD Line Striping, Bridgeland Auto Brokers and RVMD Sales and Service, inc. to make this year’s Sportsman Challenge the most lucrative yet. This year’s event will feature a $4,000 purse for just 12 cars with $1,200 slated for the winner.
In total, twelve drivers will be invited to participate. Eight starters will come from combined Brewerton and Fulton Dot Foods Sportsman points as of the date of the event. In a new twist, the top two in Sportsman points from neighboring Can-Am Speedway and Land of Legends Raceway will also be invited.
The Power Seal/Tarvia Seal/Bridgeland Auto Brokers/DnD Line Striping/RVMD Service and Repair Parts Inc. Sportsman Challenge will be run in addition to a full program that evening.
“Tom Juno does so much for our sport, particularly our Fulton and Brewerton Sportsman teams, “said Cory Reed, Track Manager, “Every year he tries to mix it up, make it fun, but also rewarding for the teams. We are thankful Tom is part of our family and welcome the support of Tarvia Seal, Bridgeland Auto Brokers, DnD Line Striping and the brand new RVMD Service and Repair Parts Inc. with this event.”
Power Seal/Tarvia Seal/DnD Line Striping/Bridgeland Auto Brokers/RVMD Service and Repair Parts, Inc. Sportsman Challenge Format:
A “revenge draw” format will set the line-up with each driver drawing then giving their number to one of the other eleven competitors, even if it’s number one.
Once the line-up is determined, the field will race as one for the first six laps of the event. Adopting a pursuit race format, the last place car at the completion of lap seven and each lap after that will be sent off the track by the race director.
When just two cars remain on the track, a caution will be thrown, with the leader at the time choosing a pill to determine which lane he/she starts in for a final two-lap dash for the checkered and lucrative $1200 first place prize.
