2016 SEASON KICKS OFF WITH 45th ANNUAL NAPA AUTO PARTS
SPRING SIZZLER AT STAFFORD MOTOR SPEEDWAY

Stafford Motor Speedway and NAPA Auto Parts will usher in the 2016 season with the 45th running of the NAPA Auto Parts Spring Sizzler on April 22-24. NAPA Auto Parts is the Elite Corporate Sponsor of Stafford Speedway and title sponsor of the track’s marquee events, NAPA Spring Sizzler, NAPA Fall Final and the uniquely formatted NAPA SK 5k.

“We are proud to be associated with NAPA Auto Parts,” explained Mark Arute, Stafford Speedway President/COO. “We are fortunate to have a partner that enthusiastically participates at the speedway. Their activation of their sponsorship program has been a great asset and their interaction with the fans and competitors has brought a level of excitement to the events and NAPA is gearing up for an even bigger and better 2016.”

Last year’s NAPA Spring Sizzler saw Woody Pitkat become the first hometown driver in the race’s 44-year history to win “The Greatest Race in the History of Spring” while the NAPA Fall Final saw Doug Coby take the checkered flag on his way to three consecutive wins to close out the 2015 season and propel him to the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour championship. The Spring Sizzler was also a precursor in the race for Stafford’s track championships. Rowan Pennink, Michael Bennett, and Al Saunders were all victorious in their feature events during the Sizzler weekend and went on to claim the track championships in the SK Modified®, Late Model, and Limited Late Model divisions. This year’s Spring Sizzler will have a special 45-lap SK Modified® feature event as an homage to the race’s 45th year of existence.

The NAPA Auto Parts Springs Sizzler kicks off on Friday, April 22 with a practice session for Stafford’s NASCAR Whelen All-American Series teams and U.S. Legend Cars teams. The Sizzler continues on Saturday, April 23 with practice, Coors Light Pole Qualifying for the NWMT, qualifying heats and consis for the NWAAS and Legend Cars divisions. The day will wrap up with feature events for Stafford’s SK Lights, Limited Late Models, DARE Stocks, and U.S. Legend Cars teams. The NAPA Spring Sizzler on Sunday, April 24 will commence with the interactive NAPA Pit Party followed by feature events for the SK Modified®, Late Model, and NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour.
