Sundance
Reschedules Sunday Show for This Friday
By Gene Ostrowski
September 27, 2009
Despite several attempts to dry the race track throughout
the afternoon, Sundance Vacations Speedway officials were
forced to postpone
the card of racing for the afternoon. With an effort to
reschedule the events and due to several tracks running make
up races and big shows this Saturday, officials made the
call and rescheduled events for the Modifieds, Late Models,
INEX Legends and
Factory Stocks to Friday, October 2. It marks
the first time since the 2005 season that racing will take
place on a Friday evening at the speedway.
Rain showers crossed the speedway after warm ups on Sunday
and within an hour the track was dry and ready for racing.
Bob Wink and Paul Morgan, Jr. took Factory Stock heat race
wins before the rains came again. Track drying continued and
just when the surface was ready for racing, another ban of
showers came through.
Several drivers were in attendance, gearing up for the 10th
annual �King of the Mountain�, which is slated for the
weekend of October 10th and 11th. John
Fortin, the 2009 Riverhead Raceway Modified champion was in
the pit area with his daughter, Amber, who also piloted a
Modified during warm ups. Anthony Sesely, a regular on the
NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour was on track with the regulars,
as was last year�s champion, Rusty Smith.
The pits will be open at 4 PM on Friday, October 2 and
practice will start at 5:30 PM. The grandstands will open at
6 PM with heat races starting at 7 PM. Grandstand admission
is only $10 and free for children 10 years of age and
younger.
