Schrufer Retires; Moore Returns

One driver is retiring, while another is making a return.

Mel Schrufer, longtime supporter and multiple time feature winner at both Accord and Orange County has announced he will be stepping out of the #84 modified. Schrufer is the third driver to announce his retirement this year, following Dave Lape and Todd Burley. Schrufer has announced that he will remain in the sport as a car owner. Jeff Heotzler has piloted the Schrufer cars at Eastern States and at the 1/4 Mile Nationals.

While Schrufer announced his retirement, Davey Moore will be making his return to the seat of a modified this year. The Hall of Famer has been retired for nearly 15 years, but will be making his return to the seat of a big-block for weekly competition at Canandaigua Motorsports Park this season. Look for more information on this story to be released in the next few weeks.
