Only 4.5 hours left….who’s coming in last minute to donate??

🏁 LESS THAN 5 HOURS. WHO WANTS THE OUTSIDE POLE? 🏁

At NOON TODAY, we go Facebook Live, refresh the fundraiser page and make it OFFICIAL.

And this thing is STILL MOVING!

🔥 JAY FITZGERALD — $1,131
🔥 CHRIS STALKER — $1,025
🔥 KIM DUELL — $875
🔥 CADEN DUMBLEWSKI — $805

Jay Fitzgerald just made another move and is now at $1,131!

But only $106 separates FIRST and SECOND.

So here's the question for EVERY driver in this field:

WHAT IS THE OUTSIDE POLE WORTH TO YOU?

In four years of this race, nobody has ever won it from the front row.

BUT… this year at Albany-Saratoga Speedway, starting up front has certainly had its rewards. Will The 5th Annual Upstate Chevy Dealers Autism Acceptance Race be the first time someone wins from the front row?

And look at what's on the line Friday night:

🏆 1ST — $10,000
🥈 2ND — $5,000
🥉 3RD — $2,600

You're talking about a GUARANTEED starting spot on the FRONT ROW of a huge Pro Stock field.

No worrying about qualifying your way in.

And potentially a whole lot less traffic to navigate when the green drops — with a chance to avoid some of the mayhem that can happen when a huge field is fighting for the same piece of racetrack.

How much is THAT worth?

$100? $250? $500?

One business could change this leaderboard.

One sponsor could change it.

One group of fans could decide they want THEIR DRIVER on that front row.

We've already raised OVER $6,000 through the Outside Pole fundraiser alone — and we're not done yet!

⏰ NOON TODAY. THAT'S IT.

We'll be LIVE on Facebook for the official cutoff and refresh.

Jay has it RIGHT NOW.

Does he hold it?

Does Chris answer?

Does Kim or Caden make a charge?

OR DOES SOMEBODY COME OUT OF NOWHERE AND STEAL IT? 👀😂

One important warning:

DON'T WAIT UNTIL 11:59.

If your donation isn't showing when we do the official refresh after noon, it doesn't count toward the Outside Pole.

You've got less than FIVE HOURS.

If you want that OUTSIDE POLE…

GO GET IT. 🏁🔥🧩

A long time friend, ex-rival and sponsor will be helping us support this amazing cause and racing our second car 🏁🧩

“It’s like riding a bike” he says 🤙🏼

Malta, NY's Jon Miller, driver of the #12 Lazarro's Auto Body sponsored Sportsmen Modified is registered for The 5th Annual Upstate Chevy Dealers Autism Acceptance Race, and will be making the long-haul to Albany-Saratoga Speedway this Friday, September 4th!

Miller, a now long-time open-wheel competitor at the "Great Race Place" had an up and down year with a recent Top-3, a Top-5 and 3 Top-10's. And, even with his now 15 years in a Sportsmen Modified, he cut his racing teeth in Street Stock division, amassing 37 wins prior to moving up "and out" of the full-fendered ranks.

Those early days of racing forged a strong friendship with Ballston Spa's Brandon Emigh, driver of the #2 Lazarro's Auto Body Pro Stock, thus leading to this Friday where Miller will strap into Emigh's spare car and "see how it goes."

Will it be like riding a full-fendered bike? Only one way to find out, BE THERE ON FRIDAY!!!

Only 12 🧩 left….lets get them filled!!!

🧩 ONLY 12 PUZZLE PIECES LEFT — AND WE ARE 3 DAYS AWAY! 🏁

We’re getting down to the wire for The 5th Annual Upstate Chevy Dealers Autism Acceptance Race, and we still have 12 pieces available in one of our favorite parts of this entire event.

If you’ve never participated in our Puzzle Piece Program, here’s how it works:

There are 32 puzzle pieces — one representing each possible finishing position in the 64-lap Pro Stock feature.

For a minimum donation of $130, you sponsor one of those pieces.

🏁 $100 goes to the DRIVER who finishes in that position Friday night.

🧩 $25 goes toward our Autism mission.

🎟️ $5 buys a scratch-off ticket that goes on the back of the piece for the driver.

Your name, family name, business, race team, or even a memorial message can go on the front.

After the race, the winner gets first choice of the 32 puzzle pieces, second place chooses next, and we keep going through the field. So nobody knows which driver will end up with YOUR piece until Friday night!

And I LOVE seeing some of the names already on this year's board — race teams, businesses, families, Friends of Rachel, and pieces honoring people who are no longer with us. ❤️

But we still have 12 EMPTY PIECES:

#5 • #6 • #9 • #13 • #17 • #19 • #20 • #23 • #26 • #29 • #30 • #32

We are THREE DAYS AWAY. We would absolutely LOVE to have all 32 pieces filled before Friday.

Who wants one?

Minimum is $130 — but as you can see, some people have chosen to give a little more, and every extra dollar helps us continue what we’re building through Racers 4 Autism.

Comment below, message Denice Catellier Duell ASAP and claim one.

Let’s fill this puzzle. 🧩❤️🏁

32 pieces. 32 finishing positions. 32 opportunities to support a racer AND make a difference for Autism.

WHO’S TAKING THE LAST 12?

Our big race is 4 days away 🏁🧩

This is the week! Let’s raise some money and get the outside pole!! 🏁

🏁 SHARE • DONATE • LET’S GET THE #2 ON THE OUTSIDE POLE! 🏁

We started off the night with a strong car running quick time in hot laps. Unfortunately the heat race didn’t go as we hoped starting and finishing p5. We made some adjustments and had a much better car for the feature, worked our way from p15 to p6 and won the Hard charger award for the night.
