FONDA, NY – The format for Saturday night’s (May 10) Dave Lape Memorial Amsterdam Truck Center Modified Twin 22s has been set.
M.W. Roosevelt & Son Inc./Roosevelt’s Towing present the pair of 22-lap features, paying $2,200 to win each.
The 2025 Dave Lape Memorial will utilize the following procedures:
· Drivers will draw for heat-race starting positions.
· Top heat-race finishers will redraw for the first 22-lap feature.
· Following the first 22-lap feature, the top-five finishers will report to the scale. All other drivers will stop on the backstretch.
· The winner of Race No. 1 will draw an invert of four, six or eight. The remainder of the field will start “head’s up” by finish of the first event. Drivers will be lined up for the second feature via the one-way radio.
· Any driver pitting between the first and second feature will start at the rear of the field.
· Both 22-lap events will offer full track and American Racer Cup points.
· This format is designed to save teams money by only utilizing one set of feature tires, instead of bolting on a set for each 22-lap event.
Swagger Factory Apparel Sportsman, Leatherstocking Credit Union Pro Stocks, Montgomery County Office for Aging Inc. Limited Sportsman and Fonda Fair Four Cylinders also take part in the 74th point season opener at the Track of Champions.
Race fan Wayne Winsman – with 70 years of Fonda Speedway loyalty – will be honored during the night.
