Oswego Speedway continues its summer stretch of action Saturday with Driver Autograph and Ovarian Cancer Awareness Night presented by JP Jewelers. Saturday’s schedule includes a 50-lap Novelis Supermodified main event as well as a 30-lap Pathfinder Bank Small Block Super feature. The Small Block Supers will revert back to running first on the schedule throughout this weekend’s racing.
As the countdown officially begins toward the 58th annual Budweiser International Classic 200 for Novelis Supermodifieds at Oswego Speedway on Sunday, August 31, we look back at the Top 30 moments in International Classic history, with the assistance of George Caruso’s ’50 Most Memorable Moments of the International Classic.’
Every Friday Jim Witko and his wife Barb load up their Big Block Modified from their Clarks-Summit, Pennsylvania home and tow north passing other tracks to compete at the Brewerton and Fulton speedways. Why do they do it? Because they want to compete against the best competition there is. On Saturday at Fulton Witko with his all black car with no sponsorship lettering, took the lead on the opening lap of the 35-lap Tracey Road Equipment DIRTcar Modified and dominated until a caution with 6 laps to go that lined-up all the heavy hitters of the division right behind him.

With 29 days remaining until the International Classic, the countdown continues with No. 29, the crash that eliminated Nolan Swift, Lee Bliss, and Ed Bellinger Sr. from the 1958 running of the Classic.
During the Speedway’s stock car era in the late 1950s, Swift, Bliss and Bellinger were consistently three of the top drivers to beat.
