STAFFORD MOTOR SPEEDWAY TO HONOR ITS TRACK CHAMPIONS
AT 40TH ANNAUL CHAMPIONS AWARDS CEREMONY ON NOVEMBER 20, 2009
With the 2009 Stafford Motor Speedway season
concluded, the speedway will honor its track champions at the 40th Annual
Stafford Motor Speedway Champions Awards Ceremony on Friday, November 20,
2009 at the La Renaissance Banquet Facility in East Windsor. A crowd of
over 500 guests is expected to be on hand as the Connecticut half-mile hands
out its post-season awards.
In addition to recognizing the 2009 track champions, other prestigious
awards, including Most Improved Driver, Most Popular Driver, and the
Reliable Welding & Speed Rookie of the Year awards will also be presented.
Stafford Motor Speedway will also recognize the top-20 finishers from the
2009 SK Modified®, Late Model, SK Light, Limited Late Model, and DARE Stock
points standings.
Headlining the night’s festivities, Ted Christopher will be recognized as
the 2009 SK Modified® Champion, which is his record seventh SK Modified®
championship at Stafford. Jim Peterson will be honored as the 2009 Late
Model track champion, his third career championship in Stafford’s Late Model
division. Michael Gervais, Jr. picked up the SK Light Modified championship
in not only his first season at Stafford, but his first competition sitting
behind the wheel of an open wheeled modified car. After being so close to
winning a championship in Stafford’s Limited Late Model division in years
past, Andrew Durand led the Limited Late Model standings from season’s
beginning to season’s end to earn what had been an elusive track
championship. Don Wood was locked in a tight battle for much of the 2009
season before driving away from his competition over the final races of 2009
to claim the DARE Stock track title.
Stafford Motor Speedway Most Popular Driver candidates include Ted
Christopher, Sean Foster, and Woody Pitkat from the SK Modified® division,
Dillon Moltz, Woody Pitkat, and Ryan Posocco from the Late Model division,
Lauren Cooper, Heather DesRochers, and Erica Santos from the SK Light
division, Carla Botticello, Andrew Durand, and Dan Flannery from the Limited
Late Model division, and Stephanie Berardi, Kyle Casagrande, and Albert
Saunders from the DARE Stock division. The Most Popular Driver winners were
voted upon by the fans, who submitted Most Popular Driver Ballots from the
PitStopper Magazine to the Speedway Office throughout the 2009 season.

from the SK Modified® division, Adam Gray from the Late Model division,
