The race, dubbed the “Junior Free For All “, will be
presented on Monday, June 18th , one day after the
national holiday of Father’s Day only because the Mighty M is dark
on Sundays.
“We have a few Junior’s racing regularly with us and some
are among our leading drivers, “ noted Eric Warner, the tracks director of
racing. “If we can get a few more from nearby racetracks we will be able to
fill the event.”
Warner is referring to Billy Parker, Jr., Jimmy
Taggart, Jr., Jimmy Marohn, Jr., and Kevin Switzer, Jr., all of
whom are outstanding drivers and proud to be juniors.
However, filling a race with juniors may be somewhat
daunting but there are quite a few talented drivers who carry
the junior moniker who are racing at tracks not far from the Mighty M.
Possible entrants could be Jimmy Morrill,
Jr., Joe Pavia,Jr., Fern Paquet Jr. and Chuck Connor, Jr. and George
Napolitano, Jr., to mention a few.
“If we could get the likes of the aforementioned we quite
possibly have a series of races for them to compete in,” Warner added.
Warner is now searching for drivers who carry junior after
their last names. Anyone fitting the criteria who may be
interested in competing in the Junior Free-For-All is urged to call
Warner in the race office at 845-794-4100x557. Or they can contact the tracks
publicity office at extension 455.
