VALENTI MODIFIED
SERIES
TO CLOSE OUT SEASON AT LEE SUNDAY |
|
 The
2011 season for the Valenti Modified Racing Series will draw to a close this
weekend, October 22 & 23, when the New England based touring division
travels to Lee USA Speedway, Lee, NH., for the 25th annual
“Oktoberfest” weekend.
The season ending event will decide the series championship between
title contenders, Chris Pasteryak, of Lisbon, CT., and Les Hinckley III, of
Windsor Locks, CT. 27 points separate the two drivers.
Pasteryak, a three-time winner this season including a victory at Lee,
captured the 2008 series championship. Hinckley, a two-time winner this
year, is seeking his first title.
The Lee finale has been an extremely competitive race since it’s inception
in 2005. Six different drivers have won the Lee fall race and all six plan
to compete at the two-day event.
Bethel, CT., veteran Jimmy Dolan, the 2005 winner, has indicated he is
making the trip. Andy Seuss, of Hampstead, NH., the 2007 winner is expected.
2008 winner Jon McKennedy, of East Chelmsford, MA., 2009 victor Kenny
Barry, of Preston, CT., and last years winner, Steven Masse, of
Bellingham, MA., are expected. Hinckley won the race in 2006.
Drivers from throughout the Northeast are expected for the last race.
Rowan Pennink, Huntingdon Valley, PA., Jimmy Kuhn, W Bridgewater, MA.,
Dwight Jarvis, Ascutney, VT., Louie Mechalides, Tyngsboro, MA., Rob
Goodenough, Swanzey, NH., and Norm Wrenn, Nashua, NH., plan to compete.
Saturday practice begins at 12 noon followed by qualifying races for all 12
divisions at 2:00 PM. Sundays feature races will begin at 12 noon with the
VMRS 100- lap green-flag race scheduled third in an eleven-race feature
line-up.
