12th Old Timer’s Reunion Opens Retro Racing Program at Oswego on August 5

OSWEGO, NY (August 1, 2017) – Supermodified fans will be busy this week as the 12th Oswego Speedway Old-Timers Reunion will commence on Saturday, August 5, just a matter of hours before the speedway’s ‘Retro Night’ featuring a 45-lap Novelis Supermodified main event.

The reunion, once again coordinated by Jim Laccardi and Jim Ferlito in 2017, will run from 10am to 3pm at Lighthouse Lanes, located directly across from the Speedway on Jim Shampine Drive.

Drivers, owners, officials and media will all be on hand throughout the afternoon to help celebrate Oswego Speedway and Supermodified racing in the speedway’s 67th Anniversary season.

Among those planning to attend the reunion include several current and former drivers, car owners, and officials including Jamie Moore, Johnny Spencer, Todd Gibson, Mark Letcher, Johnny Casey, Jim Gray, Steve Gioia Jr, Sammy Carista, Mike Rizzo, Jimmy Thompson, Jimmy and Billy Stelter,
Bill Kolb, Steve Miller, Billy Wright, Andy Susco, Tommy Rose, Johnny Torrese, Eddie McAuliffe, Billy Law, Pat and Terry Strong, Fred Gormly, Darrell Peckham, Eddie Carista, Gene Lee Gibson, Larry Gibson, John Nicotra, Gord Hutton, Jim Henry, Brenda Rice, Dick O’Brien, Fred Cavalier, Chico Rhines, Adrian Flath, and more. The Old Timer’s Reunion will also feature several raffles, former race cars on display, photos and driver autographs along with chicken or pork dinners complete with cake and a non-alcoholic beverage available for $12.00. The event will run to 3pm. Hot laps at the track will get underway at 4:30pm, while the night’s racing program will go green at 6:45pm.

For ticket information contact Jim Liccardi at (315) 342-5149. Tickets may be ordered ahead of time, with payment made at the door.

Oswego Speedway’s Novelis Supermodifieds will contend in the aforementioned 45-lap main event following the reunion, as they did until the 2011 season at the ‘Steel Palace’, along with a full heat racing program. The Pathfinder Bank Small Block Supers will join the Supermodifieds for a 30-lap feature.

Adult general admission is set at $15. Kids 16 and under will be admitted free with paid adult.
