To be eligible for point fund, must compete in all 3 races!!

You are going to have all the laps sponsored before President's Day with the way things are looking. Very impressive. Richie's daughter sponsoring lap 61 at Seekonk is way cool too.

[limodmaniac]

Unfortunately, the last few laps are always the hardest to sell!

And then, of course, I actually have to collect the money!!

But it's all a lot of fun!!

[limodmaniac]

[limodmaniac]

Lap 47 -Spaulding's Tire and Auto Maintenence, Westerly, RI

[limodmaniac]

We have $5100 in pledges, which is actually more than our goal of $5000.

Officially we have 12 "laps" left to sell, and we will continue to gladly accept $50 donations to make the purse for the "B" main grow even larger.

Thank you to all those people who have bought a lap!!!

Can't do it without you!!

[limodmaniac]

Lap 88 -In Support of Jim Boniface and Family -Rev Scott RWJM.

[limodmaniac]

J & R Precast to sponsor 2 laps

[limodmaniac]

Thanks to Ted Thomas, there will be a best appearing car award at both the Lee USA Speedway and Seekonk Speedway races. $200 and a plaque/ trophy ( Stan Mertz - get two clocks ready for me!!!) will be given out at each race. The best appearing car will be chosen by a group of modified maniacs/ modified junkies!!!

[limodmaniac]

July 23 -

$38,500 payout for 100 laps ( $10,000 to win!!!)

$1000 to start the feature

$5300 "B" main payout - $1000 to win

$10,000 point fund - $1500 to win/ 300 for 20th

[limodmaniac]

BC Brennenstuhl to take two more laps at the Seekonk July 23 show

All lap money goes to our B Feature/ non qualifiers race

[limodmaniac]

24 cars already entered. At this point, about ten days before the show, that is incredible!! ( We probably had 10 official entries at Star and Lee at that point!!)

Really helps to promote a race if you can tell people who is coming.. Teams have to step up and do a better job at that!!

As of now, we expect close to 37 cars coming on July 23.

Could we reach 40?? It's very possible!!!

When Seekonk is over, the Tri Track Series will have paid out $150,931

[JEFF]

7 1/2 hour drive and now the weather is looking iffy. Sh$t.

[Gil]

Check the weather again as it looks like it will be clear until around 10PM. Will there be internet reporting of this race?

[BigMac]

Jeff, I think the weather will hold off. Worst case, rain date is Thursday.

[RGeeProductions]

Check the weather again as it looks like it will be clear until around 10PM. Will there be internet reporting of this race?

Jim DuPont's son has been in the hospital due to a injury at work. Denise and Jim have been doing their best to cover all VMRS and NWMT events for The Chrome Horn but need to take a break form this hectic schedule so they will not be covering the event.

[modracer1]

Speed 51 will be doing live updates tonight from Seekonk.

[BigMac]

Congrats to everyone involved in promoting this event. Its been a while since we've seen 40 plus cars in the pits. How about $15,000 to win in 2015?? 15 in 15!! Easily said than done, I know.

[Gil]

Richie, I knew about Jim DuPont's son. That is why i asked if there would be coverage and not if the DuPonts will be covering the race. I can't believe that with a son in the hospital that they have kept up the pace that they have so far.

[JEFF]

Highlights of the race now on you tube. Sids view (2014) open wheel wed. Enjoy

Thank you to all who supported the races, whether it was by sponsoring a race or a lap or a bonus award.... or if you simply attended one of the races... or had a kind word to say about the races.

[RBH]

A great series with 3 completely different races. I enjoyed them all & hope everyone else did also!
Thanks to Jim & all the others involved with the organization of the series. I haven't seen that big of a crowd at Seekonk in years!
I hope someone picks up the ball and runs with it.
