Todd Bertrand Set for NEMA Debut

Brockton, MA – Todd Bertrand has picked the right track to make his Northeastern Midget Association debut. Todd, a vital part of the NEMA Lites over the past three years, will be stepping into the family #39 Saturday at Waterford Speedbowl’s Wings and Wheels.

A NEMA Lites winner at Waterford in 2008, Bertrand has posted two podiums in ‘Bowl action this summer. He will be part of a busy pit that includes the #47 of two-time defending champion Randy Cabral and the #75 of Chris deRitis.

Anthony Nocella, a frequent winner in the Lites, will be making his second NEMA start in the Seymour car.

Slated to be a full-time NEMA competitor in 2011, Bertrand, a winner at Monadnock this year, will be reporting to pre-season soccer camp at Western New England following the Waterford race.

Cole Carter drove the car to two podiums earlier this year. Ryan Newman is among the names that have filled the seat.
