September 25, 2021 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Batavia, NY)...After a successful opening night for the fourth annual "Topless Nationals" at Genesee Speedway on Friday night (September 24), heavy rain rolled in just as the heat races were underway washing out night two on Saturday evening for the Pace Performance RUSH Late Model Flynn's Tire/Born2Run Lubricants Touring Series and the Pace RUSH Sprint Cars in an Equipment Rental Options Weekly Series special. The event will not be rescheduled. Rain checks can be sent to Johnson Automotive at 4003 West Main Street, Batavia, NY 14020 for full refunds. RUSH Late Model drivers will receive a refund for their entry fee and all Tour members will receive 70 show-up points.

Prior to the rain, Michael Duritsky, Jr. set fast time over the 30-car field in FK Rod Ends "Shock the Clock" Qualifying with a lap of 17.319. The 30 cars would have been an all-time record high Tour car count at Genesee topping the 28 achieved at each of the last four events at the Batavia, NY track. A total of 32 different cars competed over the two nights of the "Topless Nationals". Duritsky was also the lucky recipient of the $100 Sunoco gift card as part of the "Fill'er up with Sunoco Bucks" presented by Sunoco and Zarin Truck & Auto.

During the afternoon, the drawings for the annual Traveling "Manufacturers Night" presented by MSD Performance took place. Competing drivers that were in the top 15 in track points at Genesee, Fulton, and Woodhull were eligible for the more than $13,000 in product giveaways. Each driver ended up receiving a prize package valued at a minimum of $441. Several drivers took home multiple prizes including Genesee regular Dave DuBois, who was the big winner. DuBois was the lucky recipient of the two top prizes; the Lincoln Electric Multi-Purpose Welder and utility card along with a Velocita-USA Team Drivers Suit with a total value of $1,875! The complete winners list is posted below.
