Delmont, PA (8/26/2008) -
ATVRiders.com is putting up a $500 bonus
for the ATV Open Holeshot Award. The bonus
adds to the $10,000 purse, with $5,000 to
win, for the invitational Pro ATV event,
scheduled for Saturday at Steel City Raceway.
According to Harlen Foley, who owns and
operates ATVRiders.com, the award is his
way of giving back to the sport. ATVRiders.com
also backs the holeshot award at each of
the 11 races on the ITP Tires/Moose Racing
AMA/ATVA National Championship.
"I'm extremely excited to sponsor
this award through ATVRiders.com,"
said Foley. "This sport has given me
so much over the years and it's only prudent
for me to try to give back and do whatever
I can to help the sport of ATV racing continue
to rise to the next level. We're looking
forward to Steel City."
"We're pleased to partner with Harlen
and ATVRiders.com at Steel City," said
Event Director Tim Cotter. "Harlen's
tireless work behind the scenes has done
so much to help grow ATV racing and the
ATV industry as a whole. This bonus not
only offers a monetary reward, but it will
also give the winner the added accolade
of having won the holeshot at what we like
to call the 'Super Bowl' of Pro ATV racing."
The Second Annual Steel City AMA Pro ATV
Open will feature Pro racing on Saturday,
Aug. 30 and a full card of Amateur racing
on Sunday, Aug. 31. Tickets start at just
$30 for adults and $15 for children 6-11.
Children 5 and under receive free admission.
