2016 New Year, New Sponsors and Chance to Win the 2016 Pace Truck
For Immediate Release (Mark Cathell March 3, 2016)
The Delaware International Speedway is proud to share some exciting news with our teams and fans. Be sure to read this entire release as the final announcement is HUGE. We would like for all of you to help us in welcoming these new sponsors for the 2016 season.
This season is bringing some new faces to the speedway, L & J Sheet Metal & Industrial Maintenance of Laurel, Delaware, Mid-Atlantic Machinery Inc. of Laurel, Delaware and K & B Auto of Delmar, Delaware, have partnered for 2016.
Mid-Atlantic Machinery Inc. will sponsor Saturday night July 23rd, Napa Big Block Modified 30 lap qualifier along with all weekly divisions plus the Super Trucks. We are currently working on confirming a date for L & J Sheet Metal & Industrial Maintenance.
Now for our big announcement!
This year DIS and K & B Auto of Delmar will give one lucky fan a chance to WIN the 2016 Pace Truck! That's right fans, for years you've seen our Pontiac Firebird pace the fields around the half mile. This year, the King family at K & B Auto will be providing us with the Official Pace Truck.
Each week, fans can make just a one dollar donation to St. Jude’s Hospital and receive a ticket to register for the Pace Truck. No limit on how many times you can register, you don't have to be present to win. All the donations made throughout the year will go directly to the King family to be presented to St. Jude’s Hospital at the end of the racing season. We cannot thank the King family and K & B Auto enough for this awesome promotion.
At our year end Delaware State Dirt Track Championships, we will be drawing the winner’s name. We will draw the winning name during intermission on Saturday, October 22. We hope to present the keys to the winner and at the end of the event, they will get to drive it home to keep!
We are currently working on a few more great ideas for 2016! We will keep everyone posted as we get closer to finalizing these opportunities. The Speedway will begin the 2016 season on Saturday, April 9th, with a Test and Tune.
