This coming Saturday marks the second
appearance of the season by the SK Light and X-Modifieds at the Speedbowl,
competing in a 25-lap feature race. They are one of six divisions and
seven main events on the June 18 Whelen Engineering Night race program,
which is highlighted by twin 35-lap SK Modified features, making for a
night of Modified mania at the Speedbowl.

The division, combining the Speedbowl’s X-Modifieds and the SK Light
Modified division, was a popular addition in its first event of the year
back on May 21. Paul French of Andover won that event, narrowly holding
off the field in the closing laps. Just one caution period slowed the
race, with French taking the victory after two-time track champion Richard
“Bubby” Brouwer and ‘Bowl newcomer Steve Greer were rapidly cutting into
the lead to challenge French on the final lap. Both drivers completed the
podium finishers in the event.

Cars eligible for competition must comply with either the Waterford
Speedbowl X-Modified or Stafford Motor Speedway SK Light rule books.
Crossing of the two rules formats is not permitted. Rules for competition

Tire eligibility includes Waterford Speedbowl SK Modified®, Stafford Motor
Speedway SK Modified® or Stafford Motor Speedway SK Light Hoosier tires
and tire inventory schedules are posted on Speedbowl.com, under the
Saturday SK Light division dropdown menu listing.

Any additional eligibility questions should be directed to the track office.

The twin SK Modified® features will bookend a total of seven main events
on Saturday 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. A pit party precedes the main events,
allowing fans opportunity to see the cars and meet the drivers. Post time
for the pit party is approximately 6:15pm.
