 Extra Laps for Street Stocks & Sharp Shooters!

“The Re/Max Pro Stocks run a 50 lap feature every week, but this week the DMR Auto Sales Street Stocks and Fredericton Gun Shop Sharp Shooter will also go fifty” said Speedway 660’s Max Roy. “It’s a chance for these two divisions to showcase their talent and give the fans a lot more racing for their money.”The Fredericton Gun Shop Sharp Shooters provide fans with an entertaining form of racing. You’ll see more of this kind of action Saturday night when they run their longest race of the year.

“Our Sharp Shooter division has Speedway 660’s highest car count and the drivers, who normally run 15 lap features in their little four cylinder, front-wheel drive cars, can’t wait to mix it up for 50 laps” said Roy. “The Street Stock drivers, who usually run 30 lap features, are also anxious to show our fans what they can do in 50 laps.”We usually see a “dust-up” or three when the DMR Auto Sales Street Stocks go racin at Speedway 660. Saturday night’s 50 lap Street Stock feature will be a good one!
