Excel Tower Racing

The 2014 season has been a trying one for Greg Belyea and the Excel Tower Racing team. They have had some good finishes, but they have had some frustrating moments along the way. Although one race won’t cure all, Greg Belyea and his team have been working hard, and are anxious for their biggest test of the season with the Great Crate Race IV taking place at Brighton Speedway this weekend.

Belyea came close to winning at Brighton Speedway this past weekend, with an untimely caution on the final lap of the race setting up a change of position once the race restarted. With a little momentum gained, Belyea hopes to carry that over to this weekend’s big event, which will be one of the richest paying Crate Late Model events in North America.

In the past three Great Crate Race events at Brighton Speedway, Belyea has had some taste of success, posting a second place finish in the inaugural event back in 2011. In 2012, it was a bit of struggle, but his 2nd car driven by Chuck Meyers went on to win the race. Last season, Belyea returned with another solid performance, placing second in the 3rd annual event. He will be looking to finish one spot higher in this Saturday’s 65 lap main event.

“This is a great weekend for our little track here in Brighton, and great for the Crate Late Model division”, says Belyea. “Hopefully we can get some great weather, and have a solid turnout of competitors in the pits and fans in the grandstands”.

Once the Great Crate Race is over, Belyea will move on to Mohawk International Raceway the following weekend with a pair of weekend events during the annual Mohawk Nationals. He will return to Brighton Speedway on Saturday, September 20th as they close out their 2014 season during Applefest Weekend.
