FULL SIZE SCHOOL BUS DEMO SET FOR MILLER LITE NIGHT
AT RIVERHEAD SATURDAY

    Those “chariots of destruction”, better known, as Full Size School Buses will destroy each other this Saturday night at Riverhead Raceway in the first of two Full Size School Bus Demolition Derby events of 2006. The event will highlight the Miller Lite night NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series program.
    On the NASCAR stock car menu the main dish will be a 50-lap Late Model feature with time trial qualifying.  This will serve as their third and final double points race of 2006. “”Mighty” Mike Mortimer of Mastic Beach led the point standings as of press time and was being chased by defending champion Roger Oxee of Peconic, Kevin Metzger of Massapequa, Dave Brigati of Calverton and Greg Kleila of Lindenhurst among others. The 50-lap Miller Lite night contest could very well determine the driver to beat in the final weeks of the 2006 campaign.
    The NASCAR Modifieds, Chargers and Blunderbusts will all join the Late Models on the card and all run regular main events with the Modifieds going 35-laps, while the Chargers and Blunderbusts will go 20 circuits.
    Once the NASCAR racing has been completed it will then be time for what has become one of the most popular events on the annual Riverhead Raceway schedule, a Full Size School Bus Demolition Derby. Just watching these mammoth machines try and negotiate the quarter mile oval while delivering bone jarring hits is entertaining, but the high level of competition makes it all that more enjoyable. Among those expected to be in one of the “chariots of destruction” will be Bob “Whiplash” Genovese, “Slim” Jim Donaldson, “Terrible” Tim Farrell and many more colorful veteran drivers.
    Time trials for the Late Models will start at 4:00 pm, with the feature event racing to go green at 5:30 pm. For additional information please dial 631-842-RACE or visit www.riverheadraceway.com.
