PLATTSBURGH, NY – Winter's chill seems to be hanging on a little bit longer than normal this year, so Airborne Park Speedway is headed indoors. The Champlain Centre Mall in Plattsburgh, NY will host a two-day racing show on the weekend of April 18-19, featuring the cars and drivers of the track's NASCAR Whelen All-American Series stock car championship and the young stars of the Kart Racing Series.
As many as 25 stock cars and 15 go-karts will be on display, and the free-admission show will have a real race-event feel with a driver autograph session and a pit stop competition. In addition, 98.9 WOKO will broadcast live from Champlain Centre and will raffle off Airborne Park Speedway passes provided by Taylor Rental and movie tickets for "Furious 7" provided by Regal Cinemas.
"We are very excited to host the drivers and cars from Airborne Park Speedway, and we're really looking forward to making this a fun, family-friendly event that we can build on each year," said Champlain Centre Mall Marketing Director Catherine Jennings. "It's going to be a great time, and hopefully it comes along with a little spring weather, too!"
Drivers and cars from all four NASCAR Whelen All-American Series divisions are expected to attend the show, including J&S Steel Modified champion Nick Heywood, Ground Round Late Model champion Bucko Branham, top Key R-D Trailer Sales Renegade racers Shawn Duquette and Zack Daniels, and Busch Beer Mini Modified racer Tyler Irwin. Brent Jarvis is expected to bring both his Renegade and his Kart Racing Series entry, and will be joined by young Kart racers Mathew Lavalley, Alex Buskey, Evan Patrie, and more.
The car show will open on Saturday, April 18 from 9:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and on Sunday, April 19 from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The driver autograph session is scheduled for Saturday, April 18 from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., with the pit stop competition scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 19.
