Upstate Modifieds And Bombers Visit Redwood Acres Raceway Saturday
The 2025 season at Redwood Acres Raceway continues this Saturday for the second race of the year. DelReka Distributing will be presenting the Craig Perrone Memorial race featuring the Upstate Modified Series, the Upstate Bomber Series, Legends and mini stocks.
Perrone was the founder and owner of DelReka Distributing since 1987. As a business owner and race fan, Perrone and DelReka have supported racing at Redwood Acres Raceway along with numerous drivers as well. Perrone passed in January of 2021 but his presence at RAR as well as in the local community remains strong.
This Saturday’s race will be the first of three visits to the Acres for both the Upstate Modifieds and Upstate Bombers and will be the second of the scheduled six races for both series.
