Saylorsburg, PA., February 16th, 2012:  Three practice dates are scheduled for Borgers Speedway Saturday March 31, April 7, and April 14, with April 21 slated as the season opener. These dates are tentative pending on the final coat of asphalt being laid and will change. The asphalt plant opens April 1 and Borgers is first on the list but Northeast Site would like 60 degrees to pave. After the final coat is laid the track has to set for at least one week. We will run practice on the base coat but we will not race until the final coat is laid. The schedule will be adjusted accordingly.

Dirt Wingless 600 Sprints, Asphalt Wingless 600 Sprints, All-Star and Jr. Slingshots, Karts, and Micro-Stocks will run on a weekly basis. ATQMRA Three Quarter Midgets combined with the Asphalt 600 Sprints will run when the ATQMRA tour schedule permits. We intend to run the Asphalt Wingless 600 Sprints weekly if we have six or more cars and give them their own separate division. The XCEL 600 Modifieds will be on the card as their tour schedule permits.

Slingshot Tour dates include Gold Tour on June 23 with a Junior Nationals and All-Star Silver Nationals on October 13.

The Vintage TQ club will be running four exhibition events and other divisions are being negotiated with to fill in the nights when the TQ’s and XCEL Modifieds are on tour. Fan Appreciation night will return as well as the very popular Nazareth-Flemington Speedway Reunion.

We are In negotiations for a major Quarter Midget event at the end of October.

If the weather holds out and racers and fans keep coming we are planning on running through November.

Race format will be one show starting at 1:00 p.m. Karts and Micro-Stocks will run their practice session and heats first followed by the Big Car Warm-ups. Kart and Micro-Stock features will then be run in their entirety. After a brief intermission Big Car Heats and Features will be run. Karts and Micro-Stocks will be allowed to stay for the Big Car show. Our goal is to have the show completed and everyone on their way home between 8:00 and 9:00 p.m.

Grandstand admission will remain $10 for adults and $5.00 for Seniors 62 and older, and children 6 to 12. Children under 6 free. Race fans will be enjoying two shows for the price of one.

Speedway owner Glenn Borger pledges to make the 2012 racing season the best in the history of Borgers Speedway. Plan on being at Borgers Speedway to be a part of “History In The Making” as the green flag drops on the “Fastest 1/7 Mile Asphalt Speedway in the Northeast” with Borgers Speedway Paving The Way For Years To Come.
