Dylan Breen Gaining Valuable Experience Following DIRTcar Sportsman Tour; Looking Ahead to Applefest Weekend and Super DIRT Week

The 2012 racing season didn’t go according to plan for Dylan Breen as several problems plagued the team throughout the season.  However, with a new chassis, and a new outlook towards the end of the year, Breen has been following the Mr. DIRTcar Sportsman Series and is looking to gain some valuable experience towards the 2013 season.

Just a couple weeks ago, Breen attended the DIRTcar Sportsman Series races at Ransomville Speedway, Merrittville Speedway and Humberstone Speedway.  All three were tracks that Breen had never even seen before, let alone raced at.  Although he was unable to qualify, the experience that they gained made the trip worthwhile, and will have setup information to fall back on when they make the trip next season with the Sportsman Series.

This past weekend, the DIRTcar Sportsman tour continued at Mohawk International Raceway in Hogansburg, New York.  A tough field of nearly 40 Sportsman cars were in action once again, but this time Breen was able to make the show.  The end result was a 19^th place finish on a very slick race track that had became one lane and tough to pass.

“We are learning, and getting better each time we are on the track”, says Breen.  “It has been a tough season, but our goal now towards the end of the season is to qualify for these races and keep learning as much as we can and build on it for next season”.

Breen will be at Brighton Speedway for their annual Applefest events on Friday night.  This will be the next round of the Mr. DIRTcar Sportsman Series.  After Brighton, the team will prepare for their first ever appearance at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse for Super DIRT Week beginning on October 3^rd and going through October 6^th for the Syracuse Sportsman Championship race.  Breen will run the Sportsman Futures race at the Fairgrounds as well on the Thursday of Super DIRT Week. The 2012 season will conclude on Sunday, October 14^th at Brockville Speedway as part of the 1000 Islands RV DIRTcar Northeast Fall Nationals.
