Bridgeport Speedway Addresses Post-Race Tech

 

Bridgeport, NJ (March 30, 2016) – After the Bridgeport Speedway management team and head tech inspector Tommy Ballard metWednesday evening, certain items and situations were addressed and outlined regarding last Saturday’s post-race tech inspection (mainly in regards to the Crate/Sportsman division).

 

Speedway owner Brian Ramey wanted to go on the record for the actions that occurred on Saturday.  “I apologize to everyone especially Tommy Ballard on how things were handled after the Crate/Sportsman feature.  This year, we have put Tommy in the thankless position of enforcing the rules at Bridgeport Speedway.  Regretfully, I dropped the ball last week and I can assure you that this won’t happen again.  A few cars had minor infractions, but nonetheless they were infractions.  No penalties were handed out on Saturday but moving forward that will change.  We have the utmost confidence in Mr. Ballard and we will let him do his job from here on out,” explained Mr. Ramey.

 

Starting on April 10, if a car is found in violation of Bridgeport Speedway’s rulebook, penalties/disqualifications will be assessed.  If a driver is concerned or thinks they have something questionable with their racecar (engine rules, body measurements, ect.), that driver should present his/her concerns and questions to tech inspector Tommy Ballard (856-812-8303).

 

*Rule update:  Non-Quick Change Rears in the ‘Sportsman’ are NOT permitted.  Bridgeport does honor NES/Big Diamond/Grandview rules regarding Sportsman cars with the exception of this rule.

 

*Rule update:  Outlaw Stock division – Rear spoilers are permitted (6 inch max height -OEM & Fabricated Spoilers Permitted)
