Go-Kart Exhibition to Highlight Riverhead Raceway Flag Day Celebration Card June 12th

Saturday evening, June 12th, at Barbara and Jim Cromarty's Riverhead Raceway
another action packed card of NASCAR Whelen All-American Series racing will
be presented. There will be five great divisions of racing along with an
exhibition presented by the East End Kart Racing club and a special Flag Day
celebration. The NASCAR Modifieds will headline the NASCAR racing action
running in a 35-lap feature event.

The East End Kart Racing organization, which runs on select Sunday
afternoons March through November at Riverhead Raceway, has served as a
"feeder" system for over a quarter of the drivers who currently race in the
NASCAR Whelen All-American Series at the 61-year old quarter mile oval. The
EEKR has a wide variety of racing classes with everything from Kid Karts to
the Senior Champ Karts for those 35-years old and over and its membership
looks forward to this annual Saturday night event to showcase their
equipment and talent.

After two weeks off the Late Models will return to action at Riverhead
Raceway, running a 25-lap feature event joining the NASCAR Modifieds.
Completing the five division card are the Chargers, Blunderbusts and Super
Pro Trucks all of whom will compete in 20-lap feature events.

Spectators arriving at Riverhead Raceway Saturday afternoon and evening will
be presented with an American Flag and during the course of the program a
special Flag Day Celebration will be held.

Feature event racing will start at 6:00 pm Saturday, June 12th, with the pit
gates opening at 1:30 pm. Practice and the opening of the spectator gates
will take place at 3:00 pm.
