BROCKVILLE - A new Saturday night tradition for Eastern Ontario and Northern New York race fans starts this Saturday Night. Brockville Ontario Speedway will hit the switch on another season of thrills, chills and excitement at the fast quarter mile race track dubbed the Beast of the East. However, the race night has shifted from Friday evenings to the new weekly starting time of Saturday night at 7 pm.
"We reallly feel this move will not only be good for the Speedway in the longer term, but it benefits our race fans some of whom drive 2 hours each week to be with us, said BOS promoter Paul Kirkland. "It won't be a rush for the fans or the teams to get to the track on Saturday, when the majority of people have more time to work with."
A number of teams took advantage of a special practice session last Sunday to get their cars dialed in for the season opener. Among those on hand were Modified fan favorites Mark Hitchcock and Kyle Dingwall, Brad Kirkland and teenage sensation Bobby Herrington from the Sportsman ranks. Many other Brockville regulars have also hit the road for some track time south of the border to get ready for 2006.
BOB-FM night at the Speedway starts with a special Chicken BBQ put on by the legendary Woodland's BBQ at 4pm. On Track action begins at 7pm featuring the DIRT 358 Modifieds, DIRT Sportsman, Street Stocks and 4 cylinder Rookies.
