AIS COMPETITORS INVITED TO TAKE PART IN AFFORDABLE 2007 PRACTICE SCHEDULE

NEW BREMEN, N.Y. – In 2007, the Adirondack International Speedway has again made another step forward in giving their drivers a great place to race throughout the Spring, Summer and early Fall season months.

            From early May through October all competitors will be invited to practice at the A.I.S. during the week with scheduled practice dates that have already been set in stone. With the “set” practice dates, teams are also given the option to engage in private practice sessions throughout the 2007 campaign.

            “We thought up of a plan to give our teams some sufficient and affordable practice time through the season,” quoted track manager Billy Gibson. “During each week we will have one to two days where we will open the track to any teams interested in turning some laps at A.I.S. Our thought is that it may spark the interest for new drivers and also make the weekly racing all the more safer. As far as I know we are likely the only track in the State to come up with an opportunity like this for our teams and we pride ourselves in that.”

            During each week, the Speedway will swing open their gates on the set days for any interested teams, for just $20 per team. The hours are tentatively set to be from 4pm until 8pm and the practice dates will take place between Tuesday and Thursday during the week. A normal weekly practice schedule will be released soon.

            For the teams interested in private practice sessions at the Speedway on any other weekday they are welcome to do so for just $100 per team for a four hour strictly private session.

            As the Speedway may not be open for practice on any actual race day or Sunday, they encourage all teams interested in practicing to call and make arrangements with the Speedway before making the tow out to the Lewis County oval.

            The track is (tentatively) not to open for the first practice until May 5th. On this date, tech inspectors for each division will also be in attendance to push cars through a pre-season inspection to assure that each racecar is properly set to compete.

            For any questions you can contact Gibson at (315) 346-RACE or consult the Speedway website at www.adirondackspeedway.com.

            Erected in 2001, the Adirondack International Speedway continues to direct “New York’s Premier Asphalt Racing” right in the scenic foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. Part of the ASA Member Track program since 2004, the A.I.S. prides themselves in hosting professional and safe stock car racing every Saturday night in historic Lewis County, NY. Their summer-time vision for six years running proves a “good thing for a great community.”
