HARLEY-DAVIDSON RENEWS TITLE SPONSORSHIP OF MEMORIAL DAY
WEEKEND WHELEN MODIFIED TOUR EVENT AT STAFFORD SPEEDWAY |
|
 Stafford
Motor Speedway has announced that for the fourth
consecutive season, the track’s Memorial Day Weekend
Whelen Modified Tour event will be sponsored by TSI
Harley-Davidson, the oldest Harley-Davidson dealer
in the state of Connecticut. The 21st Annual TSI
Harley-Davidson 125 will be held on Friday, May 27th
at Stafford. The race sponsorship continues a
relationship that dates back to the 2004 season when
TSI Harley-Davidson sponsored a NASCAR Camping World
East Series event at the Connecticut half-mile.
“We’re glad to be back at Stafford for another
season,” said Harry Levesque, Owner of TSI
Harley-Davidson. “Stafford has been a great place
for us to showcase our line of Harley-Davidson
bikes. There is a great connection between race fans
and Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, and everyone here
is looking forward to seeing another exciting Whelen
Modified Tour race.” TSI Harley-Davidson is a full
service Harley-Davidson dealership, with parts,
service, and accessories, and they are currently
installing a new state of the art service center.
TSI Harley-Davidson offers a wide variety of
services including winter storage, free tire
mounting, balancing, and installation, and rider
training classes. TSI Harley-Davidson also offers
Service Seminars every Thursday night. Space for the
Service Seminars are limited and space can be booked
by calling TSI Harley-Davidson at 860-875-6663.
TSI Harley-Davidson has been in operation since
1968, making it the oldest Harley-Davidson dealer in
Connecticut. TSI Harley-Davidson has two branches
located in Ellington and Columbia. TSI
Harley-Davidson’s Ellington store is located at 398
Somers Road, and their Columbia store can be found
at 8 Commerce Drive. TSI Harley-Davidson’s Ellington
store can be contacted by phone at 860-875-6663 and
the Columbia store can be reached at 860-423-3116,
or you can visit

At TSI Harley-Davidson, it’s not about the
destination, it’s about the ride. “We’re excited to
have TSI Harley-Davidson back with us for another
season,” said Mark Arute, SMS COO/GM. “TSI
Harley-Davidson has been a great supporter of both
the track and our competitors over the last 6
seasons here at Stafford and we hope we can continue
our partnership for many more years to come.”
The TSI Harley-Davidson 125 has become one of the
top stops on the Whelen Modified Tour calendar. The
TSI Harley-Davidson 125 has seen last lap passes for
the win as well as duels for victory between some of
the best drivers on the Tour. Whelen Modified Tour
champions Donny Lia, Ted Christopher, Tony
Hirschman, and Bobby Santos, III have all tasted the
fruits of victory in the TSI Harley-Davidson 125.
Last year’s race came down to a green white
checkered finish with Santos having to hold off a
determined Jimmy Blewett to take the victory.
Tickets for the 21st Annual TSI Harley-Davidson 125
are available and on sale now at the Stafford Motor
Speedway Box Office. Tickets are priced at $30.00
for adult general admission, $5.00 for children
6-14, and children 5 & under are free. Reserved
