Months of work at the speedway have been completed and hours of fine tuning in area race car shops are nearing an end all in preparation for the first event of the 2012 Saturday night professional stock car racing season at Wall Stadium Speedway this Saturday (4/28) evening. Modified, Sportsman, Street Stock, Legend Cars and Factory Stock racers will all be on the agenda Saturday with grandstand seating opening at 3:00 p.m. and the first race set to take the green flag at 5:00 p.m. sharp.
Defending Modified champion Anthony Sesely of Matawan is currently at the top of his game as he readies to attempt to claim a second crown. Sesely will have plenty of competition in his quest for opening night glory and a second straight crown as Chas Okerson of Freehold, Shaun Carrig of Little Falls, Adam LaCicero of Lavallette, Freehold’s Steven Reed and Howell’s Ken Woolley, Jr. are just a few of the area’s standout Modified drivers expected to go for the win and the season-long driving title.
The Sportsman division is also earning a lot of interest for the new season with car counts expected to rise. While 2011 champion Kevin Eyres of Colts Neck will lead the field in search of another crown, standouts Eric Mauriello of Howell, Brick’s Shawna Ingraham and Robert Sutphin, Charlie Kremer III of Toms River, Kevin Davison of Howell and Andrew Krause of Holmdel will be among those offering plenty of competition.
The current schedule for the April 28 season opener will see the competitor pit area open at 11:00 a.m., with a paid testing session for competitors then running from 12:00 until 3:00 p.m. The regular afternoon practice session will then begin at 3:00 p.m. and run until 4:00 p.m., while spectator seating will open for the first time this season at 3:00 p.m.
The “On Track Party” will set up after practice and run from 4:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m. Racing action on the third mile paved oval will then begin at 5:00 p.m. with qualifying events to be followed by feature race action for all five divisions.
Wall Stadium Speedway is located on Route 34 in Wall Township, N.J., just one mile north of Garden State Parkway exit 98 and Interstate 195 exit 35B.
