DUNDEE, NY – For Immediate Release – October 15th, 2015 – Curtis Berleue photo –

We are just 8 days away from the start of Dutch Hoag National Open Weekend and racers throughout the Finger Lakes and Southern Tier are making their final preparations for the season-ending event at ‘The Rock’.

The 360 Late Models will be making their lone appearance of 2015 at Black Rock Speedway on the Friday portion of Dutch Hoag Weekend.  The 360’s will race a 25-lap A-Main special worth $1,500-to-win and $100-to-start.  This race will follow the payout schedule that is seen at Little Valley during their 360 races throughout the season. 

360 Late Model owner Jim Schuyler got the ball rolling on this race and will give competitors one last shot at some track time with a good paying show.  Competitors from Woodhull Raceway, Little Valley and Raceway 5 are expected to be in attendance.

Sponsors are also coming on board to help make this event for the 360’s worthwhile.  Schuyler Chassis joins Speedway Performance, Gavenda Race Engines and Close Racing Supply as sponsors for the 360 Late Model portion of the October 23rd racing action. 

Schuyler Chassis and Gavenda Race Engines have been partners in racing for the past couple seasons and are committed to keeping 360 Late Model racing healthy in this region.  The 360’s were a big part of the racing action at Black Rock Speedway in past years and always put on a superb show when they visit the ‘Fast Four-Tenths-Mile’.

Speedway Performance will also sponsor the event for the 360 Late Models.  Owner Mike Castner from Penn Yan, has been a longtime supporter of racing in Dundee as he hauls the Speedway Performance parts trailer to Black Rock each and every Friday night. 

Likewise, Close Racing Supply is a big supporter of race teams across New York and Pennsylvania including the 360 Late Model drivers and teams.  Joel Smith from Close Racing Supply is a proud supporter of the 360 Late Model Challenge during Dutch Hoag Weekend.  Close Racing Supply has everything you need to build a race car and can be found online at www.closeracingsupply.com

Don’t miss the lone stop of 2015 for the 360 Late Models on Friday October 23rd at Black Rock Speedway!  Someone will walk away $1,500 richer thanks to Schuyler Chassis, Gavenda Race Engines, Speedway Performance and Close Racing Supply.

General admission for Friday October 23rd and Friday October 24th is just $15 for adults, $12 for seniors, $12 for ages 12-17 with children under 12 always being free of charge at Black Rock Speedway.  Gates swing open Friday at 5PM with the green flag waving for the first time at 7PM sharp.  Saturday’s show will see grandstands open at 3PM for a 5PM race time.
