44th ANNUAL NAPA
AUTO PARTS SPRING SIZZLER
TO KICK OFF 2015 SEASON AT STAFFORD SPEEDWAY |
 When
the green flag waves for the 44th Annual NAPA Auto
Parts Spring Sizzler on April 25 & 26, 2015, NAPA
Auto Parts will be geared up for their second season
with Stafford Motor Speedway. NAPA Auto Parts became
the Elite Corporate Sponsor and the title sponsor of
the track’s marque events, the NAPA Spring Sizzler,
the NAPA Fall Final, and the uniquely formatted NAPA
SK 5k, prior to the start of the 2014 season. All
three races will return to the Stafford Speedway
schedule in 2015, along with the fan friendly NAPA
Pit Parties.
“We’re excited to be part of another season at
Stafford Motor Speedway,” said Mike Wheeler,
Connecticut District Operation Manager for NAPA.
“Not only are the race fans our customers, but a lot
of the teams do business with NAPA for their auto
parts, so Stafford Speedway is a great place for us
to be and to reach out to the fans and the teams. We
looked at 2014 as a developmental season and now we
are gearing up for an even bigger and better 2015.”
“We are fortunate to be associated with NAPA Auto
Parts and are proud to have them as the Official
Auto Parts of Stafford Motor Speedway,” explained
Mark Arute, Stafford Speedway President/COO. “NAPA
is an industry leader thanks to their
professionalism and quality customer service, those
are two traits that we always strive to achieve here
at Stafford. Our three NAPA sponsored events this
past season were all extremely positive events and
we’re looking forward to promoting these events and
getting the NAPA brand name out to our fan base and
our teams. We’re proud to have the opportunity to
carry the NAPA Auto Parts name as part of the
Stafford Motor Speedway family.”
Last year’s NAPA Spring Sizzler winner, Bobby
Santos, III, looks to defend his title in the 2015
edition against what is expected to be one of the
toughest Whelen Modified Tour fields in recent
history.

Stafford’s NASCAR Whelen All-American Series teams
