    Riverhead Raceway officials today announced that JMB Construction Inc.
of East Quogue has signed on as a seasonal sponsor for both the Late Model
and Charger divisions for 2008. Both those classes and four other divisions
will make up the card for the May 3rd opener of the NASCAR Whelen
All-American Series Saturday evening May 3rd at Barbara and Jim Cromarty's
oval.

    "We are very excited and pleased to have James Becht and JMB
Construction Inc. return to out marketing program in 2008" Bob Finan of
Riverhead Raceway noted. JMB will add purse money to both the Late Model and
Charger purses in 2008 as well as host two "night at the races" programs,
one in July and another in August to highlight their sponsorship.

    Not only is James Becht returning as a sponsor to Riverhead in 2008
after a one-year hiatus to take care of some business matters, but he'll
also make a come back as a driver and car owner. Becht will again team-up
with Steve Ratti of Manorville in the Charger division for'08 and together
this tandem won the 2006 championship in the division. Becht has also
indicated he'll also sponsor in part third generation driver Chris Turbush
of Riverhead in the Charger ranks.

    Becht himself will again don a fire suit in 2008 as he recently
converted his New England style Pro Stock back to a Riverhead Raceway Late
Model, which he'll steer. Becht has a Charger victory to his credit.

    "Dynamite" Dan Turbush will be back to defend his 2007 Late Model
championship this season at Riverhead, while John Ellwood won the 2007
Charger title, both drivers are from Riverhead.

    Joining the Late Models and Chargers on opening night May 3rd are the
NASCAR Modifieds, Figure Eights, Blunderbusts and Super Pro Trucks.
Qualifying is at 4:00 pm and feature racing is set for 5:30 pm.
