DIRTcar or RUSH Licenses Required for Fulton and Brewerton Drivers
BREWERTON, NY – All drivers competing in all regular track divisions will be required to possess a valid DIRTcar or RUSH license to be eligible for competition at Brewerton and Fulton Speedways beginning in 2017. Drivers in the Tracey Road Equipment Modified, SUNY Canton Sportsman, E & V Energy Novice Sportsman, JB Logging & Firewood 4-Cylinders and Firehouse Subs Mod Lites must be duly licensed by DIRTcar for the 2017 season. Competing drivers in the Billy Whittaker Cars and Trux Late Models will require a 2017 RUSH Late Model license.
Both DIRTcar and RUSH License applications are available on their respective sites, www.dirtcarmembers.com andwww.rushlatemodels.com. For drivers preferring to complete the application on site, there will be licensing representatives at the tracks for the April 22 (Fulton) and May 2 (Brewerton) Test and Tune events, Highbank Holdup Weekend April 28 and 29 at Fulton, as well as weekly events at each track. Drivers under the age of 16 in classes requiring a DIRTcar license should complete the “Youthful driver” application. Drivers aged 17 or under in the RUSH Late Model Class should complete the RUSH “Minor” Application.
DIRTcar Sportsman and Modified teams competing in Fulton’s Highbank Holdup Weekend, April 28 & 29 must have a license to participate. Novice Sportsman, Mod Lites and 4-Cylinders will have until the weekend of May 12 and 13 to allow for ample processing time. A one-night temporary membership (for the traveling racer) will be available weekly throughout a race season.
The practice of a mandatory membership is common in sports, including motorsports, creating a mutually beneficial relationship between the drivers and the point fund, rule book, official decisions and appeals. Both RUSH and DIRTcar Licenses will afford a driver an extra layer of insurance coverage in the case of an injury.
