WOODHULL, NY-Woodhull Raceway will open the gates to the month of June on Saturday the third with a Mini Stock Special named after one of the track’s drivers who after retirement became a huge fan, rarely missing an event.
Teddy Morseman Sr., patriarch of the Morseman Family was a former driver himself as well as the father of standout competitors Teddy Jr. and Danielle Thomas. He is also the grandfather, brother, uncle to countless other Morseman family members that compete weekly at the popular Steuben County Facility.
A special Mini Stock Dash for Cash will be run off in his memory after passing away in 2022.
In addition to the Morseman Mini Dash, it is a Regular Great 8 Show featuring all Woodhull’s weekly divisions including the Insinger Modifieds, Doug Gross Construction RUSH Crate Late Models, NAPA 602 Sportsman, KMD Excavating Hobby Stocks, Southern Tier Customs Street Stocks along with the Wicked Tee’s sponsored Mini Stocks, FWD and Warriors.
Spectator main gates for the June 3 show open at 4:30 with racing at 6:30.
Woodhull offers an Early Bird Special for those arriving the first hour the gates open.
Kids under 12 and Seniors 62+ are also offered a discount. Kids need to be escorted by a paid adult.
