Chemung, N.Y. – (August 10, 2022) – The Race of Champions will be the proud presenter of the “Night before the Glen”, Rod Spalding Classic 75 for the Race of Champions Asphalt Modified Series. Joining the Modifieds at Chemung will be the Race of Champions FOAR Score Dash Series, the Race of Champions Late Model Series and the WNY TQ Midgets.
It will be the only appearance for Race of Champions competitors at the Southern Tier oval for the 2022 season.
The Modified Series will compete in the Rod Spalding Classic honor of the late and great driver, whose injuries spurred the development of the Spalding Foundation for Injured Drivers, headed by Betty Sherwood.
Defending Series champion, Austin Beers of Northampton, Pa., is looking forward to the race.
“Chemung is a technical track and last year during this race, we got to second,” stated Beers. “With a good draw, a little bit of luck I know we can be there to challenge for the win. I’m really looking forward to it and hopefully we can get to victory lane.”
The Race of Champions FOAR Score Four Cylinder Dash Series will continue their championship battle at Chemung, as the sensational young driver Andrew Lewis, Jr., from Ontario, N.Y., continues to battle Bob Palmer of Buffalo, N.Y. Lewis is coming off of consecutive victories heading into the Chemung race.
The Race of Champions Late Model Series and WNY TQ Midgets will join the racing program for the event.
The Spalding Foundation for Injured Drivers will also be recognized as part of the tradition of this night. There will be a fundraising part of the night (driver’s will walk through the grandstands with their helmets) to collect donations. The Spalding Foundation has played a role in every “Rod Spalding Classic” at Chemung Speedrome.
