Comfort Inn of West Hazleton Offers the Best for NELMA’s Best

With NELMA attracting the best fans and racers from around the Northeast, they only deserve the best when it comes to their lodging – both in quality and in price. And, the good folks at the Comfort Inn of West Hazleton, Pa. are offering the best by opening their doors to NELMA fans and racers with great hospitality, clean facilities, and racer-friendly amenities for as low as $70 a night (plus tax). Simply call (570) 455-9300 and tell them you’re part of the NELMA phenomenon, and you’ll be able to nab that special rate for the ultra-special NELMA event.

The Comfort Inn of West Hazleton, Pa. is conveniently located at 58 State Route 93, with easy access to Interstate 81, Interstate 80, and Interstate 476. In addition to being only 10 minutes away from NELMA’s host track - Sundance Vacations Speedway in St. Johns, Pa. – it’s close to many area attractions, such as the Pocono mountains, Wachovia Complex, Eckley Miners’ Village, Paragon Adventure Park, and the Laurel Mall, making the Comfort Inn your perfect stay for a NELMA weekend getaway.

In addition to their great service, the people at West Hazleton’s Comfort Inn are no strangers to racing. This year’s Sundance Vacations Speedway late model champion, Mike Sweeney, is proudly sponsored by the Comfort Inn of West Hazleton, Pa., with their logo boldly presented on his hood. The amiable Sweeney, who also earned this year’s track honors for Most Popular Driver, is looking to claim his first NELMA Late Model Challenge win - a race that has eluded the talented driver for many years.

Champions, like Sweeney, are coming from all corners of the Northeast to NELMA, the premier stock car racing event held on Sat., Oct. 24 at Sundance Vacations Speedway in St. Johns, Pa. And, for a grandstand admission of only $10 (kids 10 and under are free), you’ll enjoy three divisions with fierce competition from all corners of the Eastern Seaboard – the NELMA Late Model Challenge, WPW Equipment Rental Legends Car Fall Classic, and the NELMA Street Stock Fender Fury – along with the preceding inaugural Hazleton Rat Rod Festival and Automotive Swap Meet (10AM-2PM) - is making Saturday, October 24 at Sundance Vacations Speedway in St. Johns, Pa. a worthy mid-Autumn venture.
