By Mike Leone

August 22, 2014                     FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Pulaski, PA)…While the Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC RUSH Dirt Late Model Touring Series will be off this weekend, directors Vicki Emig and Mike Leone are busy preparing for the “$50,000 End of Summer Blowout” presented by Sunoco Race Fuels, which will take place Saturday, August 30 at McKean County Raceway and Sunday, August 31 at Wayne County Speedway. 

Both events will pay $1,500 to-win with Saturday’s event at M.C.R. being “Manufacturers Night” and Sunday’s show at Wayne County being the first ever Crate Late Model event held in the history of the Orrville, Ohio oval! 

“Manufacturers Night” is in its third year as the inaugural event was at held at Sharon Speedway in 2012 and drew 47 cars, while last year the event was moved to Pittsburgh’s PA Motor Speedway and attracted a 40-car field.  The Sweeney Tour is coming off a season high 38-car field at the last event, which was held at McKean as part of the 109^th annual Fair on Thursday, August 14.  Another strong field is expected next Saturday night.

“We like moving the event around as it gives competitors throughout our region that don’t travel with our Sweeney Tour the opportunity to take part in this great event,” explained Emig.  “There are a lot of cars in the northern part of our region so we look forward to many of these racers taking part in this great event.  Every participating driver will receive at least one prize with some receiving multiple prizes!  We felt it was important to release what we have confirmed so far and of course will continue to add prizes up until the event date.”
