Double SK Modified® features headline; return of SK Light Modifieds and
Scout Night also on tap

Recent weather over the past few weeks has
wreaked havoc for race fans at Waterford Speedbowl, however their patience
with Mother Nature will pay off this Saturday night when the track hosts
Whelen Engineering Night. Scheduled on the night will be double 35-lap
races for the SK Modifieds®, the headline division in the track’s NASCAR
Whelen All-American Series. The regularly scheduled event for June 18
will be joined by the held-over event from May 28, which was fogged out.

The twin SK Modified® features will bookend a total of seven main events
on the night. Also part of the night’s events are a 30-lap Bob Valenti
Auto Mall Late Model race, 25-lappers for the Street Stock and Mini Stock
divisions plus the second 25-lap race of the year for the SK Light
Modifieds which compete with the Speedbowl’s X-Modified division. The New
England Truck Series, also making its second appearance of the season,
will race 25-laps as well.

The popular Scout Night, an annual tradition at the Speedbowl, will also
take place Saturday after weather postponed the event from June 11. Scout
groups from across the region will participate in the evening’s activities
including an on-track pit party at approximately 6:15pm between qualifying
and opening ceremonies for the seven features.

All the extra action is provided for the regular admission price of $15.00
for adult grandstands, $5.00 for youth age 6-14 and absolutely free for
kids age 5 and under. As always, the Speedbowl offers acres of free event
parking. Spectator gates open at 3:00pm, qualifying races begin at 5:30pm
followed by the on-track pit party, and the first of seven main events are
slated to post at 7:00pm.
