DIRTcar FALL NATIONALS: 360 Saturday Set for Brockville

BROCKVILLE, ON - The Global Warranty DIRTcar Northeast Fall Nationals will feature a special double bill for Small Block fans on October 16th.  Saturday afternoon will feature the 360 Sprint Cars and the final race in this year's Super DIRT Series for 358 Modifieds.
 
For the Winged Warriors, it will be the final race of the Riverside Bar and Grill, King of the St. Lawrence series.  Canadian hopes will be with Quebec favourite Alain Bergeron, who may be making his final run in a sprint car.  Bergeron has been successful in the past in various series at the Beast of the East but needs to overcome a 24 point deficit to grab the mini series crown sponsored by the Ganonoque hotspot.
 
The 358 Modified event has spotlights squarely fixed on popular Kingston pilot Danny O Brien. O Brien leads the series by 10 points heading to the banks of Brockville.  If the local hero can hold off the star studded field it might be enough to bring the house down at the BOS.
 
Saturday's activities begin with an autograph session under the grandstands at 10:30 am.  The Sprint Cars will begin putting heat in their engines just before noon.  Hot laps get underway for both at 12:30 pm followed by time trials for the Modifieds at 1:15 pm.  The first green flag for the qualifying heats is set for 2 pm sharp. The Sprints will run a 25 lap feature while the 358 Modifieds will battle for 100 circuits in their respective feature events. 

One day admission for the Saturday show is 30 dollars. Fans can save with a three day pass that includes all weekend racing activities for just 65 dollars.
