PASS INVADES SEEKONK FOR $5,000 BATTLE SATURDAY; NASCAR, FAST FRIDAY DIVISIONS BACK ON TRACK7/23/2024 SEEKONK, Mass. — Seekonk Speedway will end the month of July with two nights of short-track racing action this weekend. On Friday, July 27, the Fast Friday Series returns with five divisions of excitement under the lights, beginning at 7 p.m. On Saturday, July 28, the Pro All Star Series makes their one and only appearance of the season for the Bay State Summer Classic - a $5,000 to win, 150-lap special that will pin some of Seekonk’s weekly Pro Stock competitors against PASS invaders. Saturday racing goes green at 6 p.m. While the weekly Pro Stock division has the night off, multiple Seekonk competitors will challenge the best from PASS in the 150-lap event Saturday. Eight-time Pro Stock champion Dave Darling, who is the most recent weekly division winner, will be in the field. He will be joined by current points leader Bobby Pelland III, who holds a 19-point lead in the standings, with one feature win this season. Dylan Estrella, currently fourth in the championship battle and a feature winner in 2024, is also planning to compete. They will be joined by Late Model and Legend Cars (defending champion) standout Jacob “Rowdy” Burns, who will wheel the No. 30. Fans will also recognize former Seekonk Speedway champions - Angelo Belsito and defending event winner Ryan Kuhn. Two years ago, Kuhn rocketed to victory in the special event. Last year, the event was cancelled due to weather. Some of the top contenders from PASS fans can expect include Johnny Clark, DJ Shaw, Gabe Brown, Austin Teras, Dennis Spencer, Rusty Poland and more. In the history of PASS events at Seekonk, the track regulars have stolen the checkered flag a few times. Will someone defend the home turf this Saturday or will a PASS driver grab the trophy? The Seekonk Late Models will be on the card for 30 laps of their own. Entering the weekend, the race for the final playoff spot with four races to go sees Mark Jenison ahead of Connor Souza by 21 points. Last week, Richie Murray made a few three-wide moves to get to the front to score his second win of the season, holding off Charlie Rose and Jacob Burns to win. They will be contending with Luke Lebrun, Brittany Campbell, Andrew Gomes and others in the feature this week. The Helger’s Sportsman had yet another wild one last week, with Gerry DeGasparre Jr. rocketing back to Seekonk Victory Lane for the first time in over 20 years in a Sportsman. Although he’s not competing in the championship battle, Colby Lambert used another strong run to open his points lead to 30 markers with four events remaining until the playoffs. Names like Adam Pettey, Josh Hedges, Scott Serydynski Jr., Tyler Almeida, Doug Benoit, Randy Moretti and others will be in contention in the 25-lap feature. In the Chaz’s Auto Body Sport Trucks, Mike Duarte has yet to win this season, but has been consistent in the top-five. He leads the standings heading into this week over Radical Rick Martin, Jake Vanada, last week’s winner Tim Bolger Jr. and Amy Arsenault, who is coming off a second-place finish last week. All of those names and more will be on track for 25 laps on Saturday. NASCAR Saturday racing also includes the N.E.A.R. division. The New England Auto Racers Antique Racers will showcase some of the old cars in the history of the sport. NEAR will also have a booth on the midway for fans to learn more about their organization. They will be inducting seven-time track champion Rick Martin into their 2024 class this November. Fast Friday action includes both of the Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero divisions - the Bandits and the Outlaws. Last week, David Bernier added another win to his Bandit season, holding off a late charge from Mason Silva. In the Outlaws, it was the first win of the season for Nick Uhrig Jr. This week, look out for some names who could grab their first checkered. In the Bandits, Ayla Martin and Jase Chaber are top-five in points, but have yet to win. In the Outlaws, Parker Davis and Ryder Aguiar are in the same boat. The Sport 4 division had another repeat winner last week, with Justin Leduc storming to the front. He’s joined near the top of the standings by leader Matt Pion, Richie Johnson, Tyler Duhancik, Crystal Murray and Taylor Bowser. Out of those six contenders, only Bowser and Johnson haven’t won this year. Will they grab a trophy this week? As the Helger’s Pure Stocks get ready to storm to the track for 25 laps, Danny Massa is coming off his first win of the year. He’s currently eighth, two spots outside of the playoffs, but only 10 points back of the cutline. Mike Henriques and Jared Cordeira sit at the top of the standings, with Brent Robidoux, Ethan Souza and Matt Talbot rounding out the top-five. Similar to the other divisions, everyone in the top-five except Talbot has won this season. Can he sneak his way into Victory Lane on Friday night? The Nick’s Pit Stop Legends Cars will also be on track Friday for 25 laps. Last week, Chase Silvia earned his first career win. Of the six drivers currently locked in the playoffs, only fifth-place Mason Tessier has yet to visit Victory Lane. Those who have include Richie Helger Jr., Jacob Burns, Brendan LaBelle, Josh Parsons and Silvia. Fast Friday racing begins at 7 p.m. and NASCAR Saturday begins at 6 p.m. In total, 10 different divisions will hit the track this weekend at the Action Track of the East. Tickets for both nights of racing are available online at SeekonkSpeedway.com. Fans who purchase tickets online will be able to skip the line on race day and will save money on costs.

![]() SEEKONK, Mass. — Many time Late Model champion Gerry DeGasparre Jr. was back in Victory Lane on Saturday night at Seekonk Speedway - but it wasn’t in the Late Models. DeGasparre found himself at the front of the field driving the Marcou Motorsports No. 18 Sportsman and picked up the victory in the Helger’s Sportsman in the 25-lap feature on Saturday night. A new combination this season, DeGasparre has found success with a rising team in Seekonk’s Division III class and was ecstatic to be back on top. Jimmy “Pepe” Silvia returned to the podium, finishing a strong weekend for his family with a second-place finish. Colby Lambert joined both of them on the podium, posting a strong third-place effort.

Bolger rocketed to the front and drove away from his challengers to win the second round of the Everett’s Auto Parts Triple Crown Series in the Chaz’s Auto Body Sport Trucks on Saturday night. Bolger held off Mike Cavallaro on a restart around halfway, then went unchallenged the remainder of the 35-lap event.

SEEKONK, Mass. — Friday, July 12 will be a night the Robidoux family will never forget at Seekonk Speedway.
Both Bryson Robidoux and Brent Robidoux celebrated in Victory Lane at the end of their respective feature events on Fast Friday. Bryson captured his first career win in the Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Outlaws, while Brent captured his second career Pure Stock win in just his fifth start. The victory combination marks one of the first times in known Seekonk Speedway history that a brother combination has won on the same night. This is a historic night - again showcasing the youth program that Seekonk Speedway has. The Lebrun family, with Luke and Eric Lebrun Jr., also won races on the same night in 2015. Brent moved through the Bandolero divisions prior to this season, and now competes in the Pure Stocks, likely preparing himself to move up to NASCAR Saturday in the future. Bryson moved from the Bandits to the Outlaws, and will soon move to the Pure Stocks next season as well. The Robidoux family has been racing at Seekonk Speedway for years. This night definitely tops everything else. “It’s unbelievable,” Bryson said after climbing out in celebration. “I’ve wanted to win here ever since I was a little kid and follow in my dad’s footsteps and my entire family. I’m just so happy.” “This isn’t what I had in mind, I didn’t even know if I was driving this car or not at the beginning of the year,” Brent said in Victory Lane when asked about winning multiple races so quickly in his Rookie year. It’s really good that both of us could win on the same night and Bryson could get his first win here (at Seekonk). Feel great.” Both Bryson (Bandolero Outlaws) and Brent (Pure Stocks) will be back on the track for the next Fast Friday on Friday, July 19, beginning at 7PM.

SEEKONK, Mass. — As the heat of the summer revs up at Seekonk Speedway, NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Racing Series drivers are heading straight for the Sunoco Drive For The Cup in September. With Mother Nature cancelling some events, the battle to make the playoffs is down to the final six NASCAR Saturday’s - and not all divisions compete on each night. The Chaz Auto Body Sport Trucks, Helger’s Sportsman and Pro Stocks are down to 5 races remaining before the field is set. The Late Models are scheduled to compete in all six remaining NASCAR Saturday’s before September. Dates included for the Late Models: July 13, 20, 27 and August 10, 17 and 24 The Trucks/Sportsman are off on July 13 The Pro Stocks are off on July 27 New for 2024, Seekonk Speedway has trimmed the playoff field down to just the top six contenders in the championship standings at the end of the night on August 24. In the Chaz’s Sport Trucks, Mike Duarte is in the lead. Although he hasn’t won, consistency has him a comfortable margin inside the playoffs. He’s joined by four straight 2024 winners - Jake Vanada in second, Rick Martin in third, Tim Bolger Jr. in fourth and Darryl Church in fifth. Right now, Church rounds out the top-five and Amy Arsenault follows in the final playoff spot in sixth. Arsenault is 10 points up on DJ Thibeault (first car outside the bubble) and Mike Cavallaro, who are tied for seventh. Behind them, Marissa Morgan and Tom Scully III are still within striking distance as well, rounding out the top-10 in the current standings.
In the Helger’s Sportsman, Colby Lambert has been the most consistent of all this season and leads by a smooth 19 points over Adam Pettey. For the driver of the No. 57, Pettey has three straight wins in the competitive Sportsman division and is hitting his stride into the summer. In third is Josh Hedges, who won opening night and has been consistently inside the top-10. Behind him, Tyler Almeida and Scott Serydynski Jr are tied for fourth spot, with Doug Benoit behind them holding the final spot in sixth. Just outside the cutline, Randy Moretti is just four points back, while former Fast Friday Pure Stock champion Jeremy Lambert is just 12 back.
The Late Model battle is tight, separated by just two points at the cutline. Charlie Rose leads Luke Lebrun by 8 points for the overall lead, with Jacob Burns in third, Chase Belcher fourth and Mark Jenison in fifth. Richie Murray, the opening night winner, currently holds the final spot, two points ahead of Connor Souza. Andrew Gomes is also just 20 points back in his Rookie season, with Brittany Campbell, also in her Rookie season, just 23 points back. First through sixth are separated by just 29 points with six races to go, meaning anything could change at any time.
In the Pro Stocks, five races remain and Vinnie Arrenegado, a Rookie of the Year contender, leads. He’s becoming comfortable finishing second every week, but would like to win before long. He’s currently four points up on Bobby Pelland, and nine points up on Dylan Estrella. These three have been among the most consistent so far this season. Two-time and defending champion Mark Jenison is fourth, while Colbey Fournier fifth and Mike Brightman finishing out the current top-six. The Pro Stock field is a little bit more separated - with Jeramee Lillie 26 points back of the cut, tied with Kenny Spencer, and Kevin Casper two points behind them. Is the field of six already “set” in this division?
The Seekonk Speedway NASCAR Saturday battles continue on Saturday, July 13. The NEMA Midgets and NEMA Lites will be in town for their annual Boston Louie Seymour Memorial Classic events, while the Pro Stocks and Late Models will continue their NASCAR season.

Adam Pettey, Doug Benoit and Scott Serydynski Jr. battled it out hard for the win after a late restart set the stage for a dash to the finish. In the end, it was Pettey finding redemption, after two weeks of hard luck to open the season with a fast car. Pettey crossed the line and took the checkered flag, with Benoit, driving the car that Craig Pianka drove to the championship two years ago, finishing in second. Serydynski, who won the week prior, charged through the field and came away with a strong third-place finish. Colby Lambert and Randy Moretti followed in fourth and fifth. Jeremy Lambert, Joe Kohler Jr., Tyler Almeida, Josh Hedges and Nick Wood rounded out the top-10 in the 35-lap event. The Sportsman will be back on the track on Saturday, June 15, for 25 laps.

SEEKONK, Mass. — The youth of Seekonk Speedway competition is alive and well - along with some established drivers moving into other divisions and pouncing on the opportunity. Through two NASCAR Saturday and two Fast Friday events in 2024, Seekonk Speedway has welcomed nine different first-time winners into the record books in their respective divisions. Liam Monaghan won in the ultra-competitive East Coast Towing Spectator Drag Series on May 11 beating top contender Matt Desrosiers. On NASCAR Saturday, June 1, Tim Bolger Jr. parked his Chaz Auto Body Sport Truck in Victory lane for the first time, as a former Fast Friday Sport 4 competitor. Last Friday night, May 31, in week two of the Fast Friday season, three more first-time feature winners added their names to the list in their respective divisions. In the Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Bandits, driving the No. 99 for Helger’s Racing, Mason Silva rocketed to his first career win. In the Outlaws, it was Brody Wakefield capturing his first Seekonk victory, driving away from his competitors. In the Helger’s Pure Stocks, Brent Robidoux used the outside lane to pass for the lead and rolled away to his first career victory in just his second Pure Stock start. Back on Fast Friday opening night, May 24, Luka Dib also piloted his No. 13 to his first career win in the Bandolero Bandits, and Mike Hanafin was in the winner’s circle for the first time in his Bandolero Outlaw career. Matt Pion captured his first Sport 4 win on opening night as well. During the opener of the NASCAR Saturday season on May 11, Josh Hedges - a former Sport Truck champion and Late Model winner - added a Helger’s Sportsman trophy to his resume. “I thought it would take a while (to get my first win),” Brent Robidoux, a former winner in the Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero divisions, said after his first Pure Stock win. “At the beginning of the year, I didn’t even know if I was going to be driving this year. It was rough starting sixth and I knew we had some work to do, but it was some clean racing. I love it. I was just telling myself to bring it home.” A few young rising stars were rather speechless after winning. “This is really awesome - we came out from the first race in third - and we came back this week and came out on top - it’s amazing,” Wakefield said. “I’m just out of words,” Mason Silva said. With Fast Friday often producing the future stars of NASCAR Saturday at Seekonk Speedway, and some of Seekonk’s top Saturday drivers moving on to compete in higher ranks in short-track or even National Series racing, the 2024 season is once again showing Seekonk Speedway has such a stable group of rising stars that fans love to watch compete weekly. Seekonk Speedway’s Fast Friday divisions will return to the track on Friday, June 7, for another night of racing. NASCAR Saturday on June 8 includes the return of the American-Canadian Tour for the Spring Green 124, along with the Pro Stocks, Sportsman and Sport Trucks. Tickets and information on all Seekonk Speedway events are available online at SeekonkSpeedway.com.

Friday includes the third round of the Fast Friday season for 2024, with the Nick’s Pit Stop Legends Cars, Helger’s South Coast Power Equipment Pure Stocks, Sport 4’s and Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Bandits and Outlaws all on track. Saturday includes the return of the American-Canadian Tour for their first of two visits to Seekonk in 2024 - the Spring Green 124. A historic event on the schedule for ACT, this special event will pin Seekonk’s weekly Late Model stars up against touring series invaders. Also on the card for Saturday, the Everett’s Auto Parts Triple Crown Series kicks-off for both the Helger’s Sportsman and Chaz’s Sport Trucks, and the Pro Stocks return to competition for just the second race of their season. The American-Canadian Tour field enters Seekonk with four championship points events in the books for their 2024 season. Former Seekonk frontrunner Derek Gluchacki leads the standings entering the race, with Gabe Brown, Alexander Tarfit, DJ Shaw and Kasey Beattie not far behind. Gluchacki and Tardif are two of four winners on the season - joined by Jesse Switser and Chris Pelkey. Seekonk drivers expected to compete include current NASCAR Division II points leader Richie Murray, Connor Souza, Vinnie Arrenegado Jr., Bobby Pelland III, Jacob “Rowdy” Burns and more. Can a Seekonk regular grab the checkered flag in the Spring Green 124 and defend the home turf? The Seekonk NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Division I Pro Stocks are back on track this week for round two of their season. Their first race on May 11 went to Colbey Fournier, but Vinnie Arrenegado, Mike Brightman, Pelland and Dick Benoit were all in the fight. It seems like forever since they have been on track - but they are back for 40 laps this week. Both the Sportsman and the Trucks are preparing for their first of three races each in the Everett’s Triple Crown Series. In two Sportsman events so far, Josh Hedges and Scott Serydynski Jr. have been to Victory Lane. It’s Colby Lambert, though, who leads the early point standings over former Fast Friday champion Doug Benoit. Hedges, Tyler Almeida and Jeremy Lambert aren’t far behind. Look out specifically for Adam Pettey to redeem himself after a wreck week one and near victory week two and come out strong this Saturday. In the Trucks, Jake Vanada, Mike Duarte and Amy Arsenault are the top three in their current points - but none of them have won yet. Tim Bolger (4th) and Rick Martin (5th) are the two winners so far in 2024. Both the Sport Trucks and Sportsman will go for 35 laps on Saturday night. Two weeks in, the Nick’s Pit Stop Legends Cars division on Fast Friday has seen two different winners. Week one went to Jacob “Rowdy” Burns, while the second showdown went to Richie Helger Jr. Some names to watch heading into week three include Rodney Dowless Jr., Mason Tessier, Kevin Davis and more, as they get set for another 25 laps. The Helger’s Pure Stock division saw Brent Robidoux use the outside lane to rocket to Victory Lane last week, his first career in just his second start. Mike Henriques led most of the race, but Robidoux slid by late. Names like Ethan Souza, Matt Talbot, Greg Perry and more will be looking to grab their first win of the year this Friday night in their 25-lap race. The Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Bandits and Outlaws have seen two weeks of hotly contested action on the track. David Bernier hasn’t won yet, but leads the point standings in a tie with Mason Silva in the Bandits. Luka Dib won the first race and Silva won round two. In the Outlaws, Mike Hanafin and Brody Wakefield are the two winners so far. Names like Bryson Robidoux, Nick Uhrig Jr, Zachary Keith and others will be looking to challenge this week in the Outlaw 15-lap feature. In the Sport 4 class, Matt Pion and Crystal Murray have both won, and both been on the podium in both events. Taylor Bowser, Richie Johnson, Mikey LeFort, Tyler Duhancik and others will look to add their name to the winners list for 2024. Tickets for both nights of racing are available online at SeekonkSpeedway.com. Friday’s racing begins at 7 p.m. Grandstands open at 5:30 p.m. for fans to enter the track and catch the end of practice.

SEEKONK, Mass. — The month of May ends, and the month of June begins in a big way this weekend at Seekonk Speedway. On Friday night, the Fast Friday divisions hit the track for the second time this year chasing feature wins at 7 p.m. On NASCAR Saturday, the Whelen Modified Tour will be in town for the J&R Precast 150, while the Helger’s Sportsman, Chaz’s Sport Trucks and Late Models will also be in action beginning at 5:30 p.m. Tickets for both nights are available now online at SeekonkSpeedway.com. The NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour invades Seekonk on Saturday for the first and only visit of the season. All drivers are chasing Ron Silk in the Tour standings. Silk has three victories in the first five Whelen Modified Tour events of the season at New Smyrna, Thompson and Riverhead. Other winners this season include three-time series champion Justin Bonsignore (Richmond) and Jake Johnson (Monadnock). Jake is familiar with Seekonk Speedway fans as a multiple-time champion in the Fast Friday Legends Cars division and feature winner in the Pro Stocks and Late Models, who has now gone Modified racing. There will also be many other contenders in the field like Matt Hirschman, Doug Coby and more. Saturday’s racing also includes the first round of the Everett’s Auto Parts Triple Crown Series for the Late Models, set for 50 laps. Richie Murray dominated the second half of the season-opener on May 11 and will return looking to charge through the field and make it back-to-back. He will be closely challenged by names like Jacob “Rowdy” Burns, defending champion Vinnie Arrenegado, Luke Lebrun, Connor Souza and more. The extra-distance event will be the highlight of a full night of NASCAR Advance Auto Parts weekly racing. The Helger’s South Coast Power Equipment Sportsman will also be on track for their second race of the year. Part-time campaigner Josh Hedges won the first one over Tyler Almeida. But, defending division champion Steve Axon and front-runner Adam Pettey will be looking to get back to the front this week. They will be joined by the Chaz’s Auto Body Sport Trucks, who have their own 25-lap event planned. Defending and seven-time Seekonk champion Rick Martin won the first race, but will have names like Mike Duarte, Darryl Church, Jake Vanada and others looking to take him down. Saturday night racing begins with a special ceremony for Carl “Bugsy” Stevens, a four-time Seekonk Speedway champion and also a historic NASCAR Modified champion, who passed away last week. Fans are encouraged to get to the track by 5 p.m. to make sure they do not miss the special ceremony. The ceremony will begin at 5:30 p.m., followed by qualifying for the Whelen Modified Tour, then heat races. The Nick’s Pit Stop Legends Cars will headline the Fast Friday campaign, as a five-division card roars the Action Track of the East to life to end the work-week. The Legends are coming off a strong first race that saw defending champion Jacob “Rowdy” Burns capture the feature win over Richie Helger Jr and Mason Tessier. Not only will the Legends run 25 laps, but the Helger’s South Coast Power Equipment Pure Stocks and Sport 4’s will do the same. In the Pure Stocks, the first event of the year went to defending champion Jared Cordeira, who jumped out early and dominated the show. He was joined on the podium at the end by Mike Henriques, who started last and charged through the field to finish second, and Brent Robidoux, a Rookie of the Year contender in the division. In the Sport 4 class, Matt Pion started off 2024 strong with his first career win. He’s heading back for week two looking for more, but names like Taylor Bowser, Crystal Murray and others will look to challenge. Both Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero divisions had a strong start to the year, with Luka Dib (Bandits) and Mike Hanafin (Outlaws) winning their first events. Naming just a few drivers to watch in these classes would be tough, as they both showcase Seekonk’s youth, rising talent. Both divisions will be on track on Friday for 15 lap races. Tickets for both nights are available online at SeekonkSpeedway.com. Friday racing begins at 7 p.m., while Saturday action goes green at 5:30 p.m. For more information on Seekonk Speedway, visit SeekonkSpeedway.com and follow the track on social media for the latest news and updates. |
