OSWEGO, NY (June 7, 2017) – The third round of the Shea Concrete Triple Crown Championship Series of Supermodified racing presented by ASI Racewear will be held at Oswego Speedway this Saturday with Twin 35 features on the line for the non-wing Novelis Supermodifieds.
TCCS points will be awarded on Saturday based on the best overall finish for registered drivers in action, with 100 points going to the cumulative winner.
Finishing positions for drivers in each feature will be added together, with the lowest number declared the winner. First place finishes in each race would result in a 2, first and second a 3, second and second a 4, and so on.
Saturday’s event will mark the second non-wing race of the TCCS schedule, following last Saturday’s first wing event at Lancaster Speedway.
Currently Dave Shullick Jr. leads the Bentley Warren Driver of the Year standings by 18-markers over teammate Otto Sitterly with Dave McKnight, Tim Snyder, and Dave Danzer filling the top five positions in the race for the $6,000 top prize.
With a solid run at Lancaster last weekend, Canadians Dave McKnight and Gary Morton flew to the top of the Jim Shampine Supermodified of the Year standings by 8-points over Snyder Racing with Danzer Racing, Gruel Racing, and Muldoon Racing holding the top five positions.
Standings at this point are a snapshot however, as only a driver and team’s best three point finishes, wing and non-wing, will count toward the championship with all four double point races still remaining on the schedule.
This Saturday’s TCCS/Oswego Speedway event will see pit gates open at 2:30 p.m., grandstand gates open at 4 p.m., hot laps at 4 p.m., a driver autograph session at 5:15 p.m., group time trials at 6:30 p.m., and racing at 7 p.m.
