Running the first full-blown season since 2007, the North
East Enduro Tour Series, commonly known as “NEETS”, is back in
action, this season at Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville,
Pennsylvania.
After holding two successful events at the track last season,
NEETS Promoters Joe Cutri and Erin Bartley have joined forces
with the Rogers family at Grandview for eight races this year.
The announcement marks the first in the series’ history that it
will run an entire season at a dirt track.
“The show itself is a building block for the upcoming NEETS
schedule,” said Cutri. “We’re anticipating growing car counts
as the season progresses and with a track such as Grandview, the
possibilities are endless- both the series and the track seem to
gel really well together and I’m thankful that the Rogers family
gave the series a try, and now a full run for this season.”
It’s not the first time that the series seemed in need of a
new home.
The NEETS “touring” series began in 2003 and ran at several
tracks in the tri-state area. After a rookie season with
mediocre car counts it switched to one track, Sundance Vacations
Speedway from 2004 through 2006. After a promoter change in
2007 the switch was made to move the series to Mahoning Valley
Speedway.
Cutri called the 2008 year a rebuilding season and after only
holding two events that year (at Grandview), he seems more than
determined to make the full season for his series at the
speedway successful.
“We already have plenty of pre-registrations coming in,”
Cutri proclaimed. “That’s a great sign and the
pre-registrations really help the NEETS officials as far a
pre-event planning is concerned.”
Cutri asks of any racers that plan to run the 4 cyl. or 6/8
cyl. enduros in April to pre-register.
One thing that the series is lacking so far this season is
single event, division and series sponsorship. The promoters
came up with a good plan to help promote anyone that might be
interested in becoming a sponsor of the series.
