 After
a relatively mild winter by central New York standards, Mother Nature
interrupted the scheduled start of the 60th consecutive summer of racing
at the Oswego Speedway by dishing up a windy and cold Mothers Day
Weekend complete with wet snow in the forecast in parts of central New
York. Supermodified and Small Block Supermodified fans will only have to
wait one week for the season to kick into gear as the Oswego Speedway
management has decide to fill the vacant May 15th date on the schedule
with the postponed Burrit Motors and Syracuse Post-Standard 60th Season
Opening Day.
In 2009 Otto Sitterly captured both the Track Championship and the
International Classic in the Novelis Supermodified division. Over in the
PathFinder Bank SBS Series, Dave Gruel was the Track Champion and Mike
Bond won the SBS Classic. Sitterly is back to defend both of his crowns
while Gruel makes the long awaited jump to the Novelis Supermodified
division where he will compete for the Cleaning for a Reason
“Rookie of the Year” award. Mike Bond returns and likely will end
the 2010 season as the all time leader in points and feature victories
in the nineteen year history of the PathFinder Bank SBS Series. The
“60th Season” opener is sponsored by Burritt Motors and the Syracuse
Post-Standard.
R.M. Burritt Motors is the longest running vehicle sponsor at the
Speedway as they have provided the “Official Pace Vehicles” for over
forty years. Burritt Motors always has a great selection of new
Chevrolets and Buicks and large selection of used cars, trucks, vans and
SUV’s. Burritt’s award winning Service Department can handle your
factory work on any General Motors brand vehicle. Burritt Motors offers
each of their customers a no hassle opportunity to make better buying
decision when it comes time to replace he field of race cars or add to
their personal vehicle needs. Burritt has the ability to find any brand
of used vehicle or any new Chevrolet or Buick in just 24 hours at a
price that will beat any other dealer pricing. A brand new 2010 Chevy
Avalanche will be pacing the field of race cars here at the Oswego
Speedway this season.
The Syracuse Post-Standard has been a long time coverage provider of
racing action at the Oswego Speedway and all race tracks throughout
central New York. Thursday mornings during the racing season you can
find a full color ad for the Oswego Speedway on their “racing page”
which highlights the various activities lined up at race tracks for that
weekend. Racing columnist Doug Elkin covers much of the racing action
throughout central New York each week.
The Oswego Speedway welcomes Burritt Motors and the Syracuse
Post-Standard as opening day sponsors for the “60th Season” of
racing in 2010.
