VMRS GEARS UP FOR ANNUAL DAV SEEKONK RUN SATURDAY
Original Race Winner Hinckley Enters Fall Classic

Following a three-week break, the Valenti Modified Racing Series season resumes this Saturday, October 5, with the running of the ‘D. Anthony Venditti Fall Classic 100’at historic Seekonk Speedway, Seekonk, Mass.

The Saturday afternoon race, once a two-day program, is the
first of three remaining events to wrap up the 2013 campaign.

With the VMRS celebrating its 10th anniversary, this weekend’s event is also the 10th annual race at Seekonk’s ‘Fall Classic.’

Leading the list of entries is 2004 winner Les Hinckley, of Windsor Locks, CT, who this year ran a light schedule following the passing of car-owner Chuck Montville in April.

Hinckley, the series second winningest driver, looks forward to a Seekonk return and remembers that inaugural race fondly.

“I remember it well,” Hinckley said recently. “It was a good one. I took the lead early and would hold on to it. But it was the pressure I got from Peter Daniels for what seemed like 80-laps is what I’ll never forget. He tried everything to get by me. A NASCAR champion out of Claremont Speedway and I’m this 30
year old driver fairly new to modifieds and I held him off.”

Dwight Jarvis, of Ascutney, VT, a 7th place finisher 10 years ago, is also an entry for Saturday.

Current point leader and reigning DAV winner Rowan Pennink, of Huntingdon Valley, PA, is a confirmed entry. Other former ‘Fall Classic’ winners entered are 2011 winner Mike Holdridge, of Madison, CT, 2010 victor Jon McKennedy, of E. Chelmsford, MA, and Chris Pasteryak, of Lisbon, CT, the 2008 winner.

Todd Annarummo, of Swansea, MA, Louie Mechalides, of Tyngsboro, MA, Tommy Barrett, of Millis, Ma, Max Zachem, of Preston, CT, Richard Savary, of Canton, MA, are all expected.

Qualifying races begin at 1:00 PM.
