(WOODHULL, N.Y.) - One sign of a successful race track is a large list of returning marketing partners and Woodhull Raceway is incredibly fortunate to have just that. Without racers, the track can't make it happen and without great sponsors, the track can't make it happen for the racers.
Woodhull Raceway is proud to announce that for the 2016 season, all of the division sponsors have returned once again to support all seven of our divisions. These sponsors include Insinger Performance, NAPA, S&W Awards, Joe Willcox Performance Automatics, Daugherty Auto Sales and Woodhull Auto Supply.
"We are so proud to have all of our division sponsors back this season," said Woodhull owner and promoter Ted White.
"A big part of our success is owed to these local businesses that support us year after year in putting on the best Saturday night short track racing in the Southern Tier."
Insinger Performance will once again sponsor the 370 Modifieds this season as Woodhull's premier division. Based in Dushore, Pennsylvania, Insinger Performance was founded in 1987 by Bruce Insinger and serves the racing industry as a master distributer of Sunoco Race Fuels.
Insinger also services the gas and oil industry with the purest methanol available. They also are the number one supplier in the Northeast US for 99.9% methanol. Their Dushore, PA headquarters geographically serves New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland.
S&W Awards returns as the 360 Late Model division sponsor for this season. They serve many area race tracks and series with the best in photography and award trophies that are handed out for special events or season-ending championships.
Even without the 360 Late Model traveling series to supplement weekly competition, this division remains popular at Woodhull with a fast fleet of drivers each week. Glenn Whritenour will be ready to search for more wins and another championship in 2016 in the S&W Awards 360 Late Models.
NAPA Auto Parts in Corning, Addison, Lawrenceville, Bath, and Hornell are back onboard for 2016 to sponsor the Crate Sportsman division. NAPA has had a strong presence at Woodhull for several years including division sponsor, King of the Ring sponsor and huge support toward the Short Track Super Series event with support from the Addison and Corning stores.
Sponsorship by NAPA is a win-win for any race track as racers can stock up on parts, pieces and accessories to keep their race teams running strong throughout the course of the season. Woodhull welcomes back NAPA to the fold for another successful season.
The Street Stock division will once again see support from Joe Willcox Performance Automatics located in Westfield, Pennsylvania. Willcox has been winning races and championships with his expert built transmissions and that is likely to continue in a big way in 2016. Servicing transmissions for performance and racing use, Willcox partnering with the Woodhull Street Stocks is a perfect fit.
The Willcox family also are large supporters of the Junior Fan Club which recognizes the importance of the younger generation of race fans each and every Saturday night. The Street Stocks will race for extra money and extra distances in 2016 with a 50-lap $750-to-win race on July 9th. They will go 100 laps for $1,000-to-win when the Fight Night All Star Street Stock series comes to town on Saturday September 24th.
Daugherty Auto Sales, located on Main Street in Odessa, NY has returned to sponsor the Mini Stock division in 2016. Chris Daugherty has been one of the biggest supporters of Mini Stock action in the area in recent years. Along with sponsoring the Mini Stocks, Daugherty Auto Sales will return to sponsor the Woodhull Warriors as well in 2016.
When it comes to buying a used vehicle for your family or servicing your ride, Daugherty Auto Sales, service and their body shop has you covered. The Mini Stocks have several special events to look forward to this season. They will race for $50 heat race wins on May 11th, $350-to-win and $1,000 added to the entire purse with lap money on June 11th. There is also a winner-take-all $200 Dash For Cash planned for later in the season.
Speaking of four cylinders, the Front Wheel Drive division will see Woodhull Auto Supply return to sponsor their division. Woodhull Auto Supply is located on McCaslin Road in Woodhull and is proudly run by the LaBarron brothers.
The Front Wheel Drive division puts on exciting racing each and every week and will no doubt do the same in 2016. Two-time and defending track champion Adam DelGrosso is looking to become the only three-time champion in the division this season, after nearly eclipsing double-digit wins in 2015.
With all of the weekly divisional sponsors onboard, Woodhull Raceway is ready to start their 52nd consecutive season of competition! For more information visit www,woodhullraceway.com or follow Woodhull Raceway on Facebook www.facebook.com/woodhullraceway or Twitter @WoodhullPR.
