By admin November 4, 2009 Wall

Wall, NJ — Wall Stadium will continue a Thanksgiving stock car racing tradition that stretches back 35 years on November 27 and 28 when speedway promoter Jim Morton presents “Turkey Derby XXXVI” at his third mile paved high banked oval speedway. As has been the case since the outset, Turkey Derby competition is always held during the daylight hours and is presented on Friday and Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend.

Friday, November 27, will be a busy first day of Turkey Derby with practice being offered for all eight divisions that will see competition on the weekend. Late Model stock cars will headline Friday’s racing activities as they compete in a 75-lap feature event. The INEX Legend Cars and the Calabreeze Pools Sportsman racers will each compete in a 25-lapper and the Flanagan Retail Development Factory Stocks will wrap up main event action on Turkey Derby Day 1 in a 20-lap feature. Friday will also feature qualifying for all four divisions plus qualifying for the Street Stocks and the Red Bank Sleep Shoppe Modifieds.

Saturday, November 28, will feature double Modified stock car action with 100-lap main events for both the tour type Modified stock cars and the Red Bank Sleep Shoppe Modified stock cars. In addition, the Street Stocks will compete in a 25-lap main event while the A.T.Q.M.R.A. Three Quarter Midgets will wrap up their season and crown a 2009 driving champion in a 20-lap feature race. In addition to the main event action and practice for all divisions, both the tour type Modifieds and the T.Q. Midgets will compete in qualifying events on Saturday.

Morton also announced that the track will be open for paid practice sessions on Saturdays November 14 and 21. The paid practice sessions, which are being offered in preparation for the Turkey Derby, will begin at 11:00 a.m. and run until 4:00 p.m. both days.
