$100 Hot Spot Bonus Each Week
OSWEGO, NY (May 6, 2014) – Oswego Speedway’s Eagles Fan Club and Chris Nelson Insurance have partnered to offer the $100 Hot Spot Giveaway to Speedway race teams in 2014.
The Hot Spot Giveaway will provide a $100 check to one race team in the pit area over the course of ten weeks, running from May 10 through August 16.
The weekly winner will be determined by their finish in that week’s main event. The winner of the Supermodified or SBS feature will draw a number, 1-24, in victory lane following the race. The driver that finished that night’s main in that corresponding position will be presented with a $100 check at the following week’s race. If the position drawn is not occupied by an Eagle’s member team, then the winner will move to the next position in the feature order.
The 2014 Hot Spot Giveaway will alternate weekly between Supermodified and SBS teams. The first giveaway of the season will be awarded to the Pathfinder Bank Small Block Super division based on the results from this weekend’s opening event on May 10.
The Eagles Fan Club kicked off their season if giveaways last Saturday night with Jackie Bruce winning the lotto board in the grandstands.
Brandon Philips was the winner of the Doyle’s Bike Shop bicycle presented by Mike and Danny Johnson.
The Eagles Fan Club is a volunteer, non-profit organization, formed years ago by a group of fans at Oswego Speedway with the sole intent and purpose of supporting the drivers and owners who compete at the Speedway.
After a rain out on May 3, Oswego Speedway’s 64th season will now officially open this Saturday, May 10 presented by Planet Fitness and Mitchell’s Speedway Press.
Racing action will feature a 50-lap Novelis Supermodified main and a 30-lap Pathfinder Bank Small Block Super feature, with time trials for each division.
Grandstand gates will open at 3 p.m. on May 10 with time trials set to start at 5 p.m. followed by racing at 6:30 p.m.
