Broderick Has Busy Independence Day Weekend
By Toby LaGrange / LaGrange Motorsports Media
Brookfield, CT - The Independence Day Weekend was a learning experience for the Broderick Racing Team. The team would make the tow to the Oshweken Speedway on Friday night followed by their first ever appearance at the Utica-Rome Speedway on Sunday.
At Oshweken, Bubba and team chased a fuel problem. Despite this Bubba came home fourth in the heat race after starting sixth. In the feature event he would roll off 16th and continue to battle fuel problems. During the feature he would get lose and with a little help, be involved in a wreck. He would not be able to get the repairs fixed with in the two minute deadline and thus was scored with a "did not finish".
The team's initial Utica-Rome appearance was definitely one to chalk up as a learning experience. Bubba came home with a fifth place finish in his heat race which line him up 17th for the SUNY Canton, Lucas Oil Empire Super Sprints A-Main. On lap two he spun and was forced to restart last. By lap five he had moved to 21st and was 18th by the fifth lap. In the end he would finish 15th. A total of 39 cars checked in to race at Utica-Rome.
The team will travel to Central New York this weekend to compete at the Brewerton Speedway on Friday and the Cayuga County Fair Speedway on Sunday.
Sponsorship will come from Arbitell Convenience Stores, Brownie's Towing, Design Maintenance, Four Winds Farm, Fyne Line Construction, Kortko Insurance, Lasco Roofing, Northeast Carpet, Precision Automotive and 20/20 Air.
