After a year of sitting idle, Evergreen Raceway will once again see action in 2016 thanks to Jason Makarewicz. “I am very happy to be able to bring racing back to Northeastern PA and give fans and racers their home track back,” Makarewicz said. Jason is a former competitor at Evergreen Speedway in the late model division as well as a car owner in the factory stock division after many years of being a fan. Makarewicz hopes these different perspectives can provide the insights needed to ensure a great night at the races for both fans and drivers. Makarewicz knows having someone who can promote the track is key to being successful and has tabbed Billy Bartley as promoter. Bartley is a former promoter at Evergreen (also known as Mountain Speedway) and the very popular Northeast Enduro Touring Series (N.E.E.T.S) in the early to mid 2000s. Bartley is sure to be a popular pick among drivers throughout the tri-state area due to making the event more than just a race. Makarewicz would also like to thank those who volunteered their time during the summer to keep the facility in good shape.
One major change coming to the track in 2016 is the race day. Throughout the entirety of the season, racing will take place on Sunday afternoons. “With so many tracks choosing Saturday as their day, it would not make sense to go head-to-head with other tracks in the surrounding area,” Makarewicz stated. Evergreen will also be looking at using a harder tire compound to save competitors money and put on a better show for the fans.
Divisions, rules package, and schedule are in the process of being completed and will be released in the near future. Evergreen Raceway is eyeing a January Enduro for their inaugural event, with more information to be released in the coming weeks. In the meantime, get those cars dusted off and prepared for an action packed year of racing at your Evergreen Raceway.
