By Bob Finan
Riverhead Raceway officials announced
today the car numbers and rules for the 2010 NASCAR Whelen All-American
Series and Enduro divisions are now available either on-line or by
calling the track office. The 2010 season will open at Barbara &
Jim Cromarty's quarter mile oval with a big doubleheader weekend
Saturday evening May 1st and Sunday afternoon May 2nd.
To reserve a car number for any of
the NASCAR classes or the Grand Enduro or 4/6-Cylinder Truck Enduro
divisions please call Margie or Robin at 631-842-RACE Monday through
Friday from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm. Only those who registered a number
for 2009 and actually raced last season will have first rights to that
car number for 2010. Everyone from the 40-year veteran to a first time
race team needs to register their car number and update other
information with the track office.
The 2010 rules are now available and
can be downloaded from the track website at www.riverheadraceway.com.
Rules changes for 2010 for the Blunderbusts are found in the
crankshaft, cylinder head and RACEceiver area, while the Super Pro
Trucks have changes in the body, exhaust system, ignition system and
suspension categories.
Charger competitors should note
changes in the area of weight, engine displacement, piston/rods,
crankshaft/balancer, ignition and suspensions.
Late Model modifications include the
frame and steering areas, while the Figure Eights should note the
intrusion plate rule. Enduro drivers will need to note a change in
approved helmets, which now must be Snell 2000 or better, while
Demolition Derby competitors should note a wholesale change in their
rules for 2010 and they should be read very carefully!
