BLINDFOLD TAXI CAB RACE COMING AUGUST 13

    A new and wild event is debuting at Riverhead Raceway on Saturday August 13th as Barbara and Jim Cromarty present a Blindfold Taxi-Cab race along with a 4-Cylinder Demolition Derby. A full card of NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series action will compliment the night’s Craftsman Tool card.
    The 2005 championship fight in all divisions is hitting the homestretch with the NASCAR Modifieds ready for a 35-lap contest, while the Figure Eight troops run their third and final 25-lap double point race of ’05. The Chargers will run a regular 20-lap race, but it will carry double points. The Late Models and Super Pro Trucks will round out the racing portion of the show, with the Late Models racing for the Amity Nissan Superstore night trophy
    In the Blindfold Taxi-Cab race the driver of the cab will be blindfolded with the passenger the navigator for the two-person team, which should give the race some wild twists and turns on the quarter mile oval. If this new race wasn’t enough entertainment, the night will conclude with the season’s second 4-Cylinder Demolition Derby. The compact cars and stars thrilled race fans back on Memorial Day weekend with Tim “Hammer” Smith of Pt. Jefferson outlasting Bob “Whiplash” Genovese of Farmingdale and “Irish” Mike O’Keefe of Manville in a three way duel.
    Qualifying will start at 4:00 pm with time trials for the Chargers with heat races to follow and the feature events will start at 6:00 pm. For more information please dial 631-842RACE or visit www.riverheadraceway.com.
