DANNY KNOLL JR.
NY6A TOUR - FOUNDER/OWNER The NY6A Hoosier 600 Micro Sprint tour was started by Tri County Racing club at Danny Knoll Jr's suggestion as a board member to be an arm of Limerock Speedway. The idea was to foster cooperation of scheduling of a tour for the benefit of all Micro sprint racers and tracks. After the initial season, although very successful, the club decided that the tour was not really a good fit for its mission statement and was sold to Danny Knoll Jr for $1.At that time, the tour incorporated the name US6A and the dba NY6A Tour. Since its inception the mission statement for the tour has been to promote and grow 600 Micro sprint racing to the benefit of all involved. Hoosier Tire has been added as the official sponsor of the tour series. "The vision for the tour is to educate racers on the extreme value that the class offers for a real race car. Make no mistakes, we are the fastest cars on the track at most venues, and even faster than full size sprinters on a dry slick day! We hope the numbers grow as the racing community realizes that good racing does not need to be expensive." |
