Sodus, NY — (January 25, 2016) — The Racesaver® CRSA Sprints have released a tentative 2016 schedule for the 305 winged sprint series. The current schedule includes seven familiar racing venues from this past season. A majority of races will be held at speedways east of I-81.
The season will kick off at Fonda Speedway in Fonda, NY. The ½-mile speed plant will host three races in 2016. Mike Kiser of Cooperstown won the last Racesaver® CRSA Sprints race at Fonda held in September 2015.
Also hosting three races will be Penn Can Speedway in Susquehanna, PA, the first of which will be on May 20th. Eddie Strada of Lake Ariel, PA took the checkers during the tour’s last visit in August.
Glen Ridge Motorsports Park, in Fultonville, NY, is a new addition to the tour schedule in 2016.
The Orange County Fair Speedway in Middletown, NY will host a tour high of four races in 2016. Last year, five races were hosted and four different drivers visited victory lane. Cory Sparks of Edinburg, NY, hometown driver Brian Krummel, and Kevin Nagy of East Brunswick, NJ scored wins along with Middletown local Scott Goodrich capturing two of his nine wins in the season on the track in his hometown.
Also hosting four races will be I-88 Speedway in Afton, NY. Goodrich also claimed two victories at I-88 last season, claiming half of the wins. Krummel claimed his second win of 2015 at I-88 last July. Emily Vanlnwegen of Sparrow Bush, NY captured her second win of the season in Afton, her first coming earlier in the season at the Five Mile Point Speedway in Kirkwood, NY.
Five Mile Point Speedway, along with Albany-Saratoga Speedway and Utica-Rome Speedway will host a pair of Racesaver® CRSA Sprints races, bringing the current schedule to a total of 22 events.
The final 2016 Racesaver® CRSA Sprints schedule will be released at the Gater News Motorsports Expo at the NYS Fairgrounds in Syracuse on Saturday and Sunday, March 12th & 13th.
