(Woodhull, NY) A pair of marketing partners in Close Racing Supply as well as Johnny and June’s will join forces to present a Great 8 Show on Saturday, May 6, 2023 at the popular Steuben County oval.
Alfred State College will also return to make it a trio of partners for the May 6 event. Alfred State will be back after two consecutive weeks or rained out events.
Track owners, Terry and Nikki Brewer will open the Merry, Merry Month of May with a $1,200 to win, 30 lap Doug Gross Construction RUSH Crate Late Model Special event where many of the top RUSH Late Model drivers in the region will converge on Woodhull to see who can tackle and win on the high banked one-third of a mile clay oval.
“The Doug Gross Construction RUSH Late Models always put on a great show. They bring a healthy car count to the track every week and the drivers put on an impressive show for the fans. We are thrilled to put some extra money out there for the winner of this event.” That according to Woodhull owners, Terry and Niki Brewer.
Also, on the Great 8 card of events it will be the Insinger Performance Modifieds, NAPA Crate Sportsman, Southern Tier Customs Street Stocks as well as the Wicked Tee’s sponsored Mini’s FWD and Warriors.
