Riverhead's Trucks Backed By Golden Auto Body

    For the seventh consecutive season Golden Auto Body of College Point, Queens will sponsor Riverhead Raceway's Super Pro Truck division in 2008.

The Super Pro Trucks will swing into action along with five other great NASCAR Whelen All-American Series divisions at Barbara and Jim Cromarty's historic quarter mile oval Saturday evening May 3rd.

    Charlie Rizzo who took over ownership of Golden Auto Body some five years ago from the Costa family has long had affection for the Super Pro Trucks and 2008 is no exception, as the "tailgate brigade" will receive weekly sponsorship money in their purse.

    In making the announcement Rizzo also disclosed that Saturday September 13th will serve as Golden Auto Body "night at the race" with that race program including the Miller Lite National Demolition Derby championship, an action packed evening to say the very least.

    Danny Grennan of Glen Cove scored the 2007 SPT championship at Riverhead Raceway and as of press time his 2008 plans were uncertain, although most everyone expects to see him in the opening night field May 3rd.

    Riverhead Raceway officials are still seeking additional seasonal and individual race sponsors not just for the Super Pro Trucks, but all the racing divisions and related events for 2008. For more marketing program information please call 631-842-RACE Monday through Friday from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm.

    In addition to the Super Pro Trucks the opening night program May 3rd will feature the NASCAR Modifieds, Late Models, Figure Eights, Chargers and Blunderbusts.
