SCCA racing, Rallycross showcase headline free event to thank facility’s supporters
MILLVILLE, N.J. – New Jersey Motorsports Park is set to host “Fan Appreciation Day” this Saturday, October 20th,
The day’s festivities, which include a variety of on-and-off-track events on both Thunderbolt and Lightning courses, are the park’s way of saying “thank you” to the fans for all of their support and business during the 2012 season.
The SCCA Regional Jersey Road Racing Classic takes hold of Thunderbolt Raceway all weekend, including the Porsche 944 Cup Nationals. On Saturday, these races, beginning at 9:00 a.m. are free to the public.
In the Thunderbolt paddock, Corvettes Unlimited’s Fall American Classics Car Show will feature American marque vehicles from the 1900’s to present day.
Across the property, NJMP has teamed up with Ray Morales and the JSC Speed Rallycross drivers to put on a showcase for fans from approximately 9:00am-2:00pm
“When the original event was canceled, we just couldn’t believe it,” Morales said. “We put a lot into this, and after talking to the other drivers, everyone was all-in on making it work. NJMP was a big help, in allowing us to come in and still hold the event. I hope we can continue to do this with the group we have and expand the grassroots rallycross events in South Jersey.”
Along with free tickets, fans will find parking at no charge, $1 hot dogs at concession stands, and free programs to the first 300 fans to enter the park.
NJMP general manager, Brad Scott, said the event is a great way to thank the community for supporting the park and its events throughout the season.
“We’re excited to offer our fans these great events at no charge to close out the 2012 spectator season,” said general manager Brad Scott. “We really appreciate everyone that has supported NJMP over our first five seasons here in Millville.”
