RACE OF CHAMPIONS TQ MIDGET SERIES 2ND ANNUAL”HARRY MACY CLASSIC” TO PAY $509.70

Race of Champions TQ Midget Series competitors will have the opportunity to honor the legendary leader of TQ Midget racing in Western New York, Harry Macy, with the running of the 2nd Annual Harry Macy Classic on Sunday, September 27 as a prelude to the 70th Annual Race of Champions 250. The 29-lap race will pay $509.70-to-win and $100 to start.

On Saturday, September 26, the NYPA TQ Midget Series will take part in a 20 lap feature event as a points paying race in the NYPA program.

For the Sunday, September 27, race teams may run their NYPA TQ Midget Series tires, however, a Hoosier MG5 right rear tire will be required. Teams wishing to run Hoosier tires on all four corners may do so.
