AFTON – This past week was a very successful for Afton Motorsports Park as they held their employee meeting at the Afton River Club. With nearly three feet of snow still on ground and the racing season just under one month away, track promoter Ron Ford and his staff are very optimistic that the Friday, April 13 Test and Tune Session will be able to take place.

Starting this week, 2018 season passes for the pits and grandstands will be on sale. This is a great way to save some money in advance on admission to Afton Motorsports Park. Please contact track promoter Ron Ford at 607-624-3772 or 607-639-1017 (days) to purchase your 2018 Afton Motorsports Park season pass.

Successful businessman Butch Klinger of Walton, and his Klinger Power Sports are returning to sponsor Afton Motorsports Park in 2018 and they are increasing their involvement. For the season, Klinger Power Sports will be providing the park with two Kawasaki four-wheelers for use during the entire 2018 racing season.

Wendy Kuhn, who took over the Afton Motorsports Park Kids Club early in the season last year, has told track management that she is returning to that position this year.

Kuhn has already begun to purchase items for the Afton Motorsports Park Kids Club members. They will receive these items when they sign up on race nights during the season.

New this year for the Kids Club is every race night, one lucky Kids Club Member who signed up for that evening, will receive a free feature pace truck ride. The winner will be able to chose which division they would like to pace the field for the start of their feature.

This year, sign-ups for the Afton Motorsports Park Kids Club will go from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. only.
