Purse Announced for TTOMS Event at Seekonk
Preregistration Deadline Fast Approaching
Seekonk, Mass. (March 27, 2017): The Tri-Track Open Modified Series (TTOMS) and Seekonk Speedway announced jointly the purse for the 14th annual Open Wheel Wednesday scheduled for Wednesday, June 28. The event has become synonymous with the big names in racing as a direct result of the $10,000 payday for the winner.
“Seekonk Speedway is excited to continue its Open Wheel Wednesday $10,000 payday with the Tri-Track Series,” said Ed St. Germain, Director of Business Development for the Speedway. “Our fans love that the big payday brings in top-tier talent and that it has them racing full tilt every lap.”
While the event pays big to the winner, podium finishers collect $3,500 and $2,500 respectively.
“The purse does not drop off dramatically” added TTOMS Managing Partner, Wayne Darling. “Tenth place still pays $1,000 and positions 15 through 26 will each pay $800.”

Back in January the Series officially opened preregistration for the 2017 season. By pre-registering, race teams will be eligible for the lucrative point fund and bonus plan.
There are only days left before pre-registration concludes on April 1, 2017.
Three of the four TTOMS will be point races with in excess of $30,000 in point fund money up for grabs. The cumulative point fund at the end of the year will be distributed among the top 25 in owners’ points. The complete schedule includes events at Seekonk and Star Speedways and two events at the New London-Waterford Speedbowl. The final event of the year at Waterford will be a non-point race.
The preregistration fee of $450 entitles teams to a stake in the point fund as well as eligibility for the growing bonus plan.
