URC SPRINT CARS RETURN TO BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY FOR THE FINAL TIME IN 2011 ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 6
BRIDGEPORT, NJ (July 29, 2011) – After two prior visits this season, the URC Sprint Cars will find their way back to Bridgeport Speedway in Southern New Jersey on Saturday, August 6 for the final time in 2011. In the two previous races this year on the big and fast 5/8th mile dirt oval, Daryn Pittman took the checkered flag in the URC Sprint Car season opener on April 9 while JJ Grasso won the event on July 9. Along with Grasso, Curt Michael, Josh Weller, Robbie Stillwagon and Kramer Williamson are just a few of the drivers expected to be on hand for this show. Joining the URC Sprint Cars on the race card will be the 358 Sportsman in addition to the Bridgeport Modifieds and Proformance Cuts Outlaw Stock Cars.

A few other events will be happening on this night as well. Prior to the night’s racing, Proformance Cuts will be back at the speedway and cutting hair under the grandstand pavilion for $10.00. Plus, the champion in Bridgeport’s Battle of the Bands will be crowned during the night. During intermission, the third annual Chicken Wing eating contest is sure to spice up the evening.

On Saturday, August 6, the grandstand gates swing open at 5:00 p.m. with racing activity getting underway at 7:00 p.m. General admission for adults is $25 with kids 12 and under admitted for free. Residents of Westville, Woodbury and Woodbury Heights will be able to save $5.00 off the grandstand admission price with proper identification.

Bridgeport Speedway provides a safe and secure family atmosphere, free parking, giveaways and fan participation games. Billed ‘The Fastest Dirt Track in the East’, Bridgeport Speedway is a banked 5/8th mile dirt oval, featuring a dirt 1/4 mile oval embedded in the center, and is located in Southern New Jersey -- just minutes from Pennsylvania and Delaware at exit 14 off of I-295.
