THE F/A PRODUCTS MAYNARD TROYER CLASSIC III ONE OF THE MOST LUCRATIVE RACES OF THE 2022 SEASON

The F/A Products Maynard Troyer Classic III set to take place on Friday, September 2 at Spencer Speedway in Williamson, N.Y., is going to be “one big night” and extremely lucrative for asphalt Modified racing in the Western Region of New York and Pennsylvania. Long-time friend of Troyer, Tom Forgione has stepped up to become the Race of Champions Modified Series race title sponsor through his F/A Products Engine and Performance Parts brand.

Forgione and the Troyer family will be adding $6,000 to the overall purse as well providing racers other incentives. This doubles their contribution from 2021. The F/A Products decal will be mandatory on each car participating in the MTC III for the additional support.

“This is a great fit for our performance business,” offered Forgione. “Maynard was a great friend of mine and this race is a perfect fit for our performance based business F/A Products. This is going to be a special night and we are looking forward to it and helping out our fellow racers.”

Forgione is a former Modified driver and Spencer Speedway regular as well as a former racer in IMSA with a Ford Mustang. Maynard Troyer’s last competitive race occurred with Forgione in 1989 as co-driver during events at Watkins Glen (N.Y.) and at Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Connecticut. Forgione still competes today in the HTA (Historic Trans Am Series.
