Seekonk Speedway readies for Connecticut Laborers Union 100 for the True Value Modifieds

By admin June 7, 2009 Seekonk

Seekonk, MA — On Saturday night, June 13, the True Value Modifieds will head south to invade Seekonk Speedway for the Connecticut Laborers Union 100. This will be the first of three visits to Seekonk for the TVMRS in 2009.

Since their first visit on October 3, 2004, the True Value Modifieds have competed in 11 events at Seekonk Speedway. In those eleven events, there have been 7 different winners at the historic oval, including reigning True Value Modified Champion Chris Pasteryak, who picked up his first Seekonk win in October, 2008 at the DAV Fall Classic. The last driver to win back to back was 6 time Seekonk Champion Vinnie Annarummo, who picked up three out or four from June 2007 to June, 2008. Les Hinckley, who won the first ever appearance for the True Value Mods at the 2004 DAV Fall Classic and multi-time True Value Mod Champ Kirk Alexander are the only other drivers with more than one victory at The Cement Palace. Andy Seuss, Lou Mechalides, and Dave Berghman have also visited Seekonk’s Victory Lane.

With other regional modified tours idle, there is the possibility that some of their regular competitors may try and compete in the Connecticut Laborers Union 100, as a possible tune up for the 5th Annual Open Wheel Wednesday on July 15, 2009. The $10,000 to win event draws the best from the Northeast in a non-sanctioned, high paying shootout.

Seekonk Speedway’s Late Models, Seekonk Sport Trucks and Street Stocks will also be on the card for June 13. The Pro Stocks will be off on this night. Front gates open at 4pm, with the first green flag at 6pm. Adult admission in $20.00, with kids 12 and under, FREE.
