The 600/270cc micro sprints have been dropped from the card.
Rich Vleck, DUNDEE, NY (June 30, 2009)- Upon further review of the IRL itinerary and the long-range forecast, the decision has been made to move the Holiday Weekend Races at Black Rock Speedway to a standard Friday night program, July 3.
This Independence Weekend Extravaganza will allow race teams the freedom from tyranny, points and handicapping. Along with all of the non-point action, there will be a meet and greet with stars of the Indy Racing League will help to make this a special night. They will all be in the Finger Lakes Region by Friday Night, and are sure to head north from W.G.I.
The only changes from Thursday to Friday is that the 360 Late Models will have a $1,000-to-win, $100-to-start event.
The 600/270cc micro sprints have been dropped from the card.
Plenty of bonus money will be on hand over the course of the night, including a $1,000-to-win street stock feature. The street stock drivers will also have a chance to win $1,000 Saturday Night at Canandaigua. There is a $500 bonus for any driver that can win both events, meaning a weekend sweep could be worth $2,500!
Because this is the first racing weekend of the month, a $1,000-to-win FWD Enduro returns to the card. A second row starting spot will be awarded to the winner of the 30-lap event for November’s $10,000-to-win “Big One”.
The highly competitive sportsman cars also open up their draw, while continuing with DIRTcar crate rules. Aluminum or steel wheels are still permitted. $800 will be on the line for the winner of this event.
There will be plenty of 4-cylinder divisions also on the card, with the Signs Plus of Kanona 4-Cylinders, Ladies 4-cylinders, Bandits and the 4-cylinder modifieds all part of the night’s festivities.
Once again, all divisions will have an open draw upon entry into the pit area on Friday Night. Grandstand admission is just $10, with racing getting under way, as always, at 6:45 p.m. For more information, visit www.BlackRockSpeedway.com.

SYRACUSE, NY – When the 2009 racing schedule was released for the Lucas Oil Empire Super Sprints (ESS) many race teams and fans took notice of the 4th of July holiday weekend. All three nights are a part of the SUNY Canton Series which pay $2,000 to win with unique back to back events at Can-Am Motorsports Park and then on Sunday to the Utica-Rome Speedway.
The two nights in a row at one race track is a first in the 26 year history of ESS. Last year the 4th of July holiday weekend event at Can-Am was greeted by a standing room only crowd. This year it was decided to make it two shows on Friday the 3rd and Saturday the 4th itself.
The events will be two complete full point shows for the Lucas Oil and SUNY Canton titles. After Friday night’s event is run, the slate is wiped clean and a whole complete show will be run again on Saturday. Race teams should note that if they were not on hand on Friday, there is no penalty the next night. Fans will also see a special award as if they attend on Friday night they will receive $5 off Saturday’s admission.
Rt. 37 Building Supply along with Cook’s Plumbing Heating and Hardware will bring you the Cobra Coaches dash events which will precede the 25 lap, $2,000 to win SUNY Canton A-Mains on each night.
On Sunday, it’s the second of three holiday visits to Utica-Rome where 34 entries were in the pits for the first event. Jessica Zemken took the win back on May 24th to lead the SUNY Canton Series coming into the big weekend. The first $2,000 event wasn’t decided to the last turn of the last lap which thrilled the big crowd that always greets the winged warriors.
Current ESS point leader Lance Yonge will lead the pit log for the weekend which will include defending champion Steve Poirier, Justin Barger, Tommy Wickham, Chuck Hebing, Cook, Michael Parent, Brian McDonald, Anthony Cain, SUNY Canton leader in Zemken, Alain Bergeron, Justin Harris, Lee Ladouceur, Jason Barney, Doug Emery, Mike Stelter and many more.
Expected to make special appearances on the weekend will be Dan Kaszubinski, Rick and April Wilson, Judi Bates, Russ Bennett, Gordy Button, Bubby Kerrick, Chris Jones, Tyler Rand, Joe August, Paul Pekkonen, Bruce DeWick, Andy Noto, Kory Gurney and more surprises.
Not only will there be fireworks in the sky, but the stars and cars from the Lucas Oil Empire Super Sprints will bring there own as they invade two fast half-mile ovals. Can-Am, Utica-Rome…it’s the SUNY Canton Series and it will be excitement guaranteed!!!
