@pintysfoods • @anthonyjspiteri • @Merrittville • THOROLD, ON – Pinty’s Delicious Foods is in the business of eatertainment. Merrittville Speedway is in the business of entertainment. The two will meet Saturday April 30th to get the 2016 Championship Chase cooking. Pinty’s makes good food fun and will make good racing fun as well.

“We are looking forward to celebrating the start of Merrittville’s 65th season,” said Anthony Spiteri, Vice President of Marketing, Pinty’s Delicious Foods. “Dirt Track Racing and Pinty’s are the perfect partners – our goal is to bring the two traditions together … sharing great chicken fingers and great racing with family and friends! ”

The 2016 Championship Chase Kick Off will see the Hoosier Stock and Van Raine Construction 4 Cylinder Divisions joining the Rev’s Full Throttle Powersports Modified Lites Yager Bros Trucking Sportsman and Pinty’s 358 Modifieds who already got their start in the Rev’s Full Throttle Powersports Spring Sizzler.

“When you look at the Canadian Sports Scene … whether it’s the Blue Jays … the CFL and NFL to Tennis, Curling and their new venture with NASCAR – Pinty’s is engaged and committed to all the major leagues,” said (Merrittville GM) Erica Bicknell-Jones, “that’s why it’s so exciting to welcome such a major player back as we look forward to celebrating our 65th season of grass roots short track racing.”

Chad Brachmann of Sanborn NY who won his first title in 2008, was the first Pinty’s Delicious Foods 358 Modified Champion in 2015 and looked like he would take his first checkered flag of the new season last week until St. Catharines driver Mike Bowman took over top spot with 5 laps to go.
