This Saturday, August 18th, will mark the running of the first Alan Taylor Memorial for Crate-Modifieds. This 10-lap shoot-out will feature WOODHULL drivers who have NEVER won in a modified. For anyone who doesn't know; Mr. Taylor was a fixture at Woodhull who had put together a race like this a few years ago. Tragically, he passed away earlier this year.
Ted White has stepped up big and thrown in some money so that 1st, 2nd and 3rd will receive a pay-out. The winner will also walk away with a handsome trophy generously donated by S&W Awards and Photos. They will also receive a money saving gift certificate from Quickskinz Performance Racing Bodies.
Several of their fellow drivers have also stepped up with A.J. Potrzebowski putting up $25 for a hard charger award and Daugherty's Auto Sales and Service kicking in $25 for a hard luck award. Chris Daugherty has also pledged $100 on top of the winnings if a driver goes from last place on the starting grid to the front for the win.
Several drivers who are eligible for this were not in attendance this past week. If anyone reading this can put me in touch with Frank Kline, Doug Kline, Chris Brockway, Bill Walters and Paul Jenkins it would be greatly appreciated. My phone number is (607)- 739-2789. Thank-you Bob Johnson
