DMI NAMED PRESENTING SPONSOR OF EASTERN STORM; PLEDGES DRIVER CONTINGENCY AWARDS

Diversified Machine, Inc. has been announced as a presenting sponsor of the 2017 Eastern Storm tour through Pennsylvania featuring the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship.

The Lancaster, Pennsylvania-based company’s contingency award program for this year’s edition will reward drivers finishing in the top-10 of the final point standings for the five-race series that runs from June 13-18.

The Eastern Storm champion will earn $1000 in DMI certificates.* Second will receive a certificate from DMI worth $400, $250 for third, $200 for fourth and $175 for fifth.* Sixth through tenth in the final standings will earn certificates worth $150 (6th), $125 (7th), $100 (8th), $75 (9th) and $50 (10th).

Additionally, DMI will reward drivers nightly who finish in positions three, six and nine as a tribute to the traditional car numbers (#39 & #63) sported by last year’s Eastern Storm champion, the late Bryan Clauson.

The “BC 3-6-9” Award will provide a $100 DMI certificate to each night’s third-place finisher, $75 to the sixth-place finisher and $50 to the ninth-place driver at all five Sprint Car races as well as Friday night’s Horn-Schindler Memorial Silver Crown event at Williams Grove.

“DMI is excited to be the presenting sponsor of the 2017 Eastern Storm,” Dave Ely of DMI said. *“We wanted this year’s program to honor the outstanding relationship we were fortunate enough to have with Bryan and continue to have with his father, Tim. *It’s a special week of racing for Pennsylvania and watching BC dominate it last year was something special in itself. *We race on this year and look forward to the teams’ support of the series and program. *See everyone at Grandview!”

The 11th annual Eastern Storm begins Tuesday, June 13, at Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville, PA.* Abbottstown, PA’s Lincoln Speedway follows a night later on Wednesday, June 14.* Then, it’s off to Mechanicsburg, PA’s Williams Grove Speedway for the series’ first visit since 1996 on Thursday, June 15.* USAC’s Silver Crown division takes over “The Grove” Friday, June 16 as the Sprint Cars take the night off.* Saturday’s schedule takes us to the half-mile Port Royal (PA) Speedway.* The Eastern Storm champion will be crowned on Sunday, June 18, in the series’ finale at Susquehanna Speedway in Newberrytown, PA.
