School Bus Demo to Highlight Ideal Cesspools Night
at Riverhead Raceway August 9th

One of the more anticipated events on the annual Riverhead Raceway schedule will unfold this Saturday evening August 9th when Barbara & Jim Cromarty present a Full Size School Bus Demolition Derby as part of the Ideal Cesspools night for the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series. A Blindfolded Taxi Cab race and a Car Rollover Contest will also join the program.

The 2008 campaign marks the 10th consecutive year that Doug Wholey and his Ideal Cesspools firm have been a marketing partner with Riverhead Raceway.

This year they sponsor the NASCAR Modified division for the season. Wholey himself is enjoying a solid season in the Late Model division where he's currently among the top five in points.

The 35-lap Ideal Cesspools night Modified feature will be joined by the third 25-lap, double point feature event for the returning Figure Eights, who enjoyed a two week break, with the Late Models and Chargers completing the stock car portion of the card.

For the Full Size School Bus Demolition Derby all the usual personalities are expected to compete including "Cheesebox" Michael Rommeney, "Slim" Jim Donaldson, "Tiny" Tim Farrell and the always colorful local talent Donald Fox.

The third Blindfolded Taxi Cab race of 2008 will also be presented with Scott Graham and Stan Wangenstein the most recent winners two weeks ago in an event that finds cars going just about everywhere on the oval and infield. Nick Herzberg and the Savoy brothers Jason & Brian will lead the Car Rollover drivers into action as well.

Qualifying is set for 5:00 pm with feature event racing set for 6:00 pm. For further information please call 631-842-RACE or visit www.riverheadraceway.com.
