FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TNT Super Series heads to Western New York for two races this Memorial Day weekend
Second annual Memorial Day weekend events are powered by Steve's Electric!
NEW YORK (May 22, 2013) For the second consecutive year, the Memorial Day weekend will see the Joe's Transmission TNT Super Series hold a two-race weekend in Western New York, powered by Steve's Electric. With RACE 1 being rained out two weeks ago, this double header will be the first time the drivers hit the drag strip for TNTSS competition in 2013.
Friday May 24th will see the series return to Elegant Builders Raceway Park (EBRP) in Lancaster, NY and then Saturday May 25th the series heads to Empire Dragway in Leicester, NY.
TNTSS Director Ted Barnes says that everyone involved in the Joe's Transmission TNT Super Series is proud to celebrate the Memorial Day weekend on the race track. "It's because of the men and women in uniform that serve in both Canada and the US, especially those that have given their lives, that allow us the freedoms to do what we like to do."
And having the folks from Steve's Electric presenting this weekend is a perfect fit. "Three generations of McCarrick's have served in uniform - Steve's father, his son and Steve himself."
What makes this weekend unique on the track is going from 1/8 mile racing on Friday to 1/4 mile racing on Saturday. To be successful in the TNTSS, competitors need to be good in both formats.
Tom Coonly and Dave Surmatchewski, both TNTSS regulars, were winners at last year's Memorial Day weekend events. Both will be there to defend their titles along with many other contenders looking to earn a spot in the Dilts Piston Hydraulics Race of Champions coming up in August.
Qualifying starts at 5pm on Friday at EBRP and then 2pm on Saturday at Empire. Go to www.elegantbuildersraceway.com or www.empiredragway.com for all the details.

Based on NHRA’s Super Street & IHRA’s Hot Rod classes, competitors run on a 10.90 index in the 1/4 mile (7.00 in the 1/8 mile) and race for a guaranteed purse that pays back more than 100% of the racer's entry fees. The yearend points fund provides cash & prizes to the top eight finishers and the Series Champion receives a prize package worth over $4000.00.
