Vernon, NY – Utica-Rome Speedway race fans and drivers alike will be a part of the 2015 NASCAR HomeTracks program with Ingersoll Rand, the Official Tool of NASCAR. The program kicks off this Sunday May 3 at the historic Route 5 track.

Once a month, drivers who win the feature in 3 of the 4 NASCAR Whelen All-American Series divisions will be eligible to receive an Ingersoll Rand tool prize package valued at $600. The division who did not receive a prize in the first month will be rotated in during the next. Each racer will be required to carry the Ingersoll Rand decal to collect the prize.
