RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES OPENER SET FOR SATURDAY NIGHT AT DELAWARE INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY
Saturday night at the Delaware International Speedway, the Rislone URC Sprint Series will open their sixty-fifth season of competition, and opening night always brings a high level of excitement.
The event, sponsored by Taylor & Messick will present a series of heat races, a “B” Main and a 25 lap feature event paying $2,000 to the winner. Gates will open at 5 PM with race time set for 7 PM. The URC Drivers & Owners Meeting will take place at 5:30 PM and attendance is required. The meeting will cover the nightly race procedures, teching, payoff and handicapping as well as a review of the 2012 Rislone URC Sprint Series schedule. Drivers will draw for their heat race starting position at this time.
Paul Messick of Viper Venom Fuels is pleased to be back with URC in 2012 and he will offer a free drum of Viper Fuel to the feature winner if they are using the product. The program will be in place throughout the year but is limited to one free drum of fuel per team. Viper Fuel offers 99.99% pure methanol for $135 per fifty-five gallon drum and is available by contacting Paul Messick at 302-757-6918 or by e-mail at sales@vipervenomfuels.com. The feature winner will receive their free drum of Viper Fuel when arranging their next purchase of fuel.
In 2012, URC race teams will have at least two locations to purchase their URC American Racer tires. BFP Specialty & Snookies Speed Parts will both distribute URC sprint car tires this season.
BFP, located in Bethel, PA will be a distributor and they do plan to be on hand at more then a dozen events. Along with selling the official URC American Racer Tire, the BFP Specialty Truck will also offer tear offs, racers tape and brake clean as well as other items race teams may need throughout the year. Tires may also be purchased at BFP during the week and tires will ship from the BFP location as well. BFP is open Monday through Thursday 7 AM to 7 PM, Friday 7 AM to 2 PM and Saturday 8 AM to 2 PM. Contact Jason or Todd Bashore at BFP by calling 717 933 4999.
Snookies Speed Parts located in Milton, DE will also distributed the URC American Racer Tires and will have tires at the track when URC is racing in Delaware. Snookies Speed Parts in a family owned and operated business that has been servicing the local racing community for over 35 years. Snookies operating hours are Monday through Thursday 8 AM to 5:30 PM, Friday 8 AM to 5 PM and Saturday 8 AM to 1 PM. Tires may also be purchased at Snookies by calling 302-684-8466.
The tire deal for 2012 is still another incentive offered to URC competitors. Thanks to American Racer and support from Rislone, URC competitors will be paying an all-time lowest cost for their tires. An American Racer right rear will sell for $159, the left rear for $155 and fronts may be purchased for $138, unheard of pricing for sprint car tires today. .
The excitement for the coming season is plentiful as URC offers their always strong weekly payoff of $2,000 to win and $200 to take the green flag in the feature event. There are eight special events on the schedule that will carry an increased payoff.
Race fans should find some added excitement with URC using a double file restart format in 2012. This change has mixed feelings among the URC teams. Respected URC Car Owner Rick Weller said it best, “There will be nights when it works in your favor, and nights when it works to your dis-advantage”.
Taylor & Messick will be the race night sponsor at Delaware International on Saturday night, joined by series sponsors Rislone, Bar’s Leaks, Fred’s Trailer Parts, MACH1 Chassis, Pioneer Pole Buildings LLC, Brad Penn Oil, Engler Machine & Tool, American Racer, Viper Venom Fuel, i.g. Burton, Brodix and National Parts Peddler.
A very attractive roster of talent is expected to be in the field on Saturday night to include Josh Weller, Ed Aikin, Kramer Williamson, Robbie Stillwaggon, Randy West, Joey Biasi, Davie Franek, Art Liedl, Jonathan Swanson, Joey Biasi, Chad Trout, Tim Hogue, Troy Betts, Ryan Bohlke and Kevin Nagy just to name a few of the drivers very capable of winning the URC season opener.
