DEGARAY & BURNS WIN SECOND RACE OF MINICUPS

    Race #2 at West Hampton went well this Sunday. Steve DeGaray made it out for the first time this year in his #1 Pennzoil Winston Cup look-a-like. Other then a few minor bugs to work out the car and DeGaray ran well. Taking down the feature wins would be Steve Degaray in the adult class and Joseph Burns in the #53 John's Auto Repair Pontiac in the Junior class.

The Long Island Mini Cups brought out a few other people at the track that are very interested in getting involved. One other car is on order and possibly a second being ordered in a week or so.

The Long Island Mini Cups future is looking bright as the car count is coming up slowly, but at least the potential for growth is there.

However, the minicups still can use your help.  The hope behind the minicups was to create a racing organization with a level playing field for all on Long Island.  However, without support, this dream may fade and disappear.  For more information on how you can get involved with the minicups, visit www.liminicup.com .  Don't hesitate as the future of the Long Island Mini Cup Association is in your hands.
