FORESTVILLE - Big Diamond Speedway has announced two businesses have signed to sponsor hard luck awards for the speedway's regular divisions in 2014.
Red, White and Blue Auto Sales, Ashland, will sponsor the weekly award for the 358 modifed and roadrunner divisions. The drivers who suffer the worst luck in each program in each division will be admitted free to the following week's program. Only drivers whose cars have Red, White and Blue Auto Sales stickers, provided at the track, on the right sides of their cars will be eligible for the awards.
The business also will provide the pace truck for races at Big Diamond this season. That truck will be displayed at next week's Big Diamond Speedway Car Show at the Fairlane Village mall, Pottsville.
The Sportsman Hard Luck Award will be sponsored in 2014 by Kim's Kreations, Myerstown. Each weekly winner, determined by Big Diamond officials, will be provided free pit admission in the next sportsman program at the track.
