ARDC HEADS TO THE JERSY SHORE FOR THE SUMMER SIZZLER 40 AT NEW EGYPT

By Steve Williams

The Wingless Midgets of the ARDC will swing back into action, this Tuesday August 24th when they head to New Egypt Speedway for the Summer Sizzler 40 along with the Tri Track Modifieds.

When ARDC last visited New Egypt, current point leader and leading feature winner, Steve Buckwalter was the winner but was chased across the line by the “Jersey Gang”, including the “Phillipsburg Posse”, of Nick Wean and Stephanie Stephens.

Wean will be back at the controls of his dad’s, Rick Wean, owned, Jim’s Auto Body, Spike Gaerte. Wean, still looking for his first win of the season, is in a dogfight for points position with Brett Arndt.

Stevens, who returned to action at Accord, after sitting out a few races with engine problems, will also wheel a family owned Midget. Also running a Spike Gaerte, Stephanies, George Stevens owned racer is sponsored by, Power Mist Fuels, Scott Naturale and Ayers Enterprises.

A former member of the “Jersey Gang”, Frank Polimeda finished in fourth place last year on his way to his first ARDC Championship. Polimeda has since moved to Robesonia, PA but will have his potent Neptune Research Spike Mopar on hand, trying for his first win of the season.

Looking to keep the Buckwalter name in the New Egypt winners circle is ARDC rookie, Tim Buckwalter. Buckwalter, who was the winner at Accord Speedway currently sits second in points in the Design 500 Racewear National Midget Rookie of the Year race.

Racing gets underway at 7:30pm.
