The summer racing season always seems to get into full swing when Memorial Day Weekend comes around. At the Oswego Speedway, that is definitely the case with the annual tributes to Jim Shampine, Tony White and Richie Evans. This year, Doug Didero returns aboard the Booth Racing #61 for his first visit of the season in his new ride.
The first sponsor for the weekend is Community Bank which is headquartered outside of Syracuse, New York with over 80 branches in New York State. As their name states, “community” is what unites them with the people who live near their branches. They want to be part of the communities where their customers, live, work and plan their futures. They offer Electronic Banking; Checking and Savings accounts; Money Market Accounts; Loans and Lines of Credit for their personal and business banking customers. Community Bank also has a full line of Financial Services including Trust Services; Asset Management and Benefit Plans. Stop by a Community Bank branch near you to find out about all of their financial products or look them up on the web at “communitybankna.com”. The next sponsor is Burritt Motors. Burritt is the longest running vehicle sponsor here 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. Their service team consists of one of the top General Motors Technicians in the entire Country, Chris Battles. Burritt Motors offers each of their customers a no hassle opportunity to make better buying decision when it comes time to replace or add to their personal vehicle needs. In addition to providing the 2007 Chevy Avalanche as the Pace Truck and sponsoring tonight’s race, Burritt annually prepares a Demoition Derby car for Track Announcer, Roy Sova, to compete in.
Finally, Parts Plus will be sponsoring the Race of Champions Richie Evans Memorial 100. Parts Plus annually sponsors all of the Race of Champions modified visits here at the Oswego Speedway. One of their business partners, Jan Leaty, won the Parts Plus 125 on Friday of Classic Week last season. Jan has signed 100 of the 2007 Oswego Speedway schedule posters and we will be giving them out to lucky race fans during 2007. |
