PLATTSBURGH, NY - La piste de Airborne Park Speedway devra attendre une journée de plus pour lancer sa programmation annuelle de courses de stock-car.  Une pluie matinale et les prévisions météos peu encourageantes ont forcé les dirigeants du tracé situé à Plattsburgh, NY de reporter la 41e présentation du Bill McBride Chevrolet « Spring Green » présenté par Interstate Batteries au dimanche 17 mai, à 13h.

 

Cette classique, du calendrier American-Canadian Tour, revient au circuit d'Airborne après cinq années d'absence.  C'est la quatrième manche de cette série et la levée de rideau de la Série ACT, qui se dispute principalement au Québec et de la Triple couronne québécoise – trois des épreuves disputées au Airborne Park Speedway, sont comptabilisées pour un boni supplémentaire aux participants de la Série ACT.

 

La NASCAR Whelen All-American Series présentée par Yandow Sales & Service et John Deere seront aussi de la programmation avec les J&S Steel modifiés, Key R-D Trailer Sales renegades et les Busch Beer mini modifiés.

 

L'admission générale pour le Bill McBride Chevrolet Spring Green 115 présenté par Interstate, dimanche le 17 mai, sera de 20 $ pour adultes (25 $ en devises canadiennes) et gratuits pour les 12 ans et moins.  Les gradins seront ouverts dès 10 h et les épreuves débuteront à 13 h 30.

Airborne Park Speedway est situé sur Broderick Road à Plattsburgh, NY, un mile au sud de la sortie 36 de l'autoroute 87.  Visitez www.airborneparkspeedway.com pour de plus amples informations, ou téléphonez 518-647-4444.  Airborne Park Speedway est aussi sur Facebook à facebook.com/AirborneParkSpeedway et sur Twitter à @AirborneSpeed
