The cars and stars of Wall Stadium’s highly competitive Sportsman division will enjoy top billing this Saturday night (August 20) as they compete in their annual 75-lap championship race. Legend Cars, Street Stocks and the visiting open cockpit Three Quarter Midgets will also be on the card. Grandstand seating opens at 5:00 p.m. and racing starts at 7:00 p.m.
Wall Stadium’s Sportsman division features an impressive roster of competitors ranging from tested veterans to young up and coming racing stars. Defending champion Kevin Eyres of Colts Neck, Robert Sutphin of Brick and Joe Mongeau of Brick represent the seasoned veterans expected to be in the field, while Eric Mauriello and Chris Lane, both of Howell, and Holmdel’s Andrew Krause are among the young lions expected to be in the field.
Like the Sportsman division, the roster for the invading TQ Midgets also offers many outstanding racers. Buddy Sloed, Jr., who grabbed his first ever Wall victory earlier this season, will lead a field which will include veterans Robin Johnston of Wayne, Pa., Frank Fischer of Flemington, Mike Tidaback of Little Falls and Ian Cumens of Lyndell, Pa., just to name a few.
In addition to the Blewett Recycling Sportsman 75-lapper and a 25-lap main for the Midgets, The INEX Legend Cars and the Street Stocks will also compete in 25-lap main events.
Young fans in the grandstand area will not only enjoy the auto racing events, but will also experience “Carnival Night” at the track. The evening will feature carnival type games in the grandstand midway for the young fans and carnival type food at the refreshment stands.
Pit gates will open at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday; with regular practice starting at 5:00 p.m. Grandstand seating will also open at 5:00 p.m. and the first qualifying event will take the green flag at 7:00 p.m.
