Hang On Tight: Accord Speedway Kicks Off 2021 STSS Hurlock Auto & Speed North Region May 11
Written by Chris Moore
ACCORD, NY You better hang on tight for this 12-second ride!
In less than one month™s time, the Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco kicks off the Hurlock Auto & Speed Supply North Region points chase.
The eighth running of the Battle of the Bullring™ gets it started on Tuesday, May 11 at Accord Speedway. After losing the 2020 edition to COVID-19 restrictions, the appropriately named event is œall systems go? for elbows-up action in 2021.
The banked quarter-mile oval in Ulster County is one of the original six facilities to host a series race in 2014, its first season.
The Battle of the Bullring 8™ will also serve as a remembrance for the late Tom Perrego. The STSS Modifieds will race for 50 laps and pay $5,440 to win with the 44™ paying homage to Perrego. $1,000 will be reserved for the 10th-place finisher with $400 to take the green flag plus several bonuses and awards.
STSS Crate 602 Sportsman will also be on the card kicking off the Precision Hydraulic & Oil North-sponsored Region. After a 25-lap main event, the STSS Crate 602 Sportsman winner receives $1,500.
Four Cylinders complete the weeknight tripleheader program.
All gates open at 4 p.m. with hot laps starting at 6:15 p.m. and racing at 7 p.m.
General admission prices are $25 for Adults, $23 for Seniors (ages 65 & up) and $3 for Kids ages 11 and under. Reserved seating prices are an extra $2. Indoor Reserved Seating is $35 (call 845-626-1142 to secure an indoor seat).
