Ron Hornaday Night Scratched; Family Autograph Night Added

NEW BREMEN (NY) – Just as the Adirondack International Speedway was gearing up for the return of NASCAR Craftsman Truck superstar; Ron Hornaday, to re-visit the Speedway on August 18^th, plans have changed, placing Hornaday in California on the anticipated date.

            While Hornaday has recently been hired to drive the Kevin Harvick, Inc. owned/Dollar General No. 77 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series his sponsorship commitments have him making a run in California in a Le Mans style racecar.

            Last season, Hornaday made the visit to the Speedway for an August 19^th date, however Mother Nature prevailed disallowing the Speedway to go on with the nights activities. “It is with deep regret that we aren’t able to get Ron out here for another shot at it,” commented track owner Paul Lyndaker. “However, we will still hold the same exciting racing action that we are very proud of, with our local stars.” In return, the evening’s racecard will go on as planned with a crowd-pleasing addition.

            The August 18^th date will now hold “Family Autograph Night” and also still be headlined with the ASA Challenger Late Model – “Champ 101”. The 101-lap race will pay out a greater amount of money to all competitors in Adirondack’s premier division. During intermission all competitors will be asked to bring their cars down to victory lane for a full autograph session. Price of admission has been dropped to $15 for Adults and $8 for Students (ages 10-15). All Children 9 and under will be admitted free of charge. In addition a $40 family pack (Two Adults and up to Three Students) will be available to all fans.
