TSI Harley-Davidson 125 | June 5, 2015
The No.22 Our Motorsports team returns to Stafford Motor Speedway for the second time this season. Earlier this season Keith Rocco made his debut with Our Motorsports at the NAPA Spring Sizzler. Qualifying 10th for the Spring Sizzler, Rocco was running as high as second throughout the race. After an alternator wire had broken off, Rocco lost voltage and began to fade. Finishing 12th, Rocco and crew chief Brad Lafontaine now go into the TSI Harley-Davidson 125 with a loaded notebook.
Fast Facts for the TSI Harley-Davidson 125 and Stafford Motor Speedway:
The Race: The 25th Annual TSI Harley-Davidson 125 will be the fourth of 15 points races during the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour’s 30th Anniversary season, and the second of four events at Stafford Motor Speedway.
The Track: A half-mile, slightly-banked oval, Stafford originated as a horse racing track in the 1870s. After seven decades as a horse track, the dirt oval started holding automobile races following World War II. Stafford became a NASCAR-sanctioned track in 1959 and was paved for the first time in 1967. Stafford’s 115 Whelen Modified Tour races are second all-time.
Rocco Says: “I am looking forward to getting back behind the wheel of the No. 22 Our Motorsports Chevrolet at Stafford Motor Speedway. I know with Brad and the team hard at work each week, we go to the track with a great car. Since my first race with Our Motorsports was at the Sizzler, we’ve had time to gather a notebook and learn a lot as a team.”
