FRIDAY EVERETT’S TRIPLE CROWN FINALE, NASCAR SATURDAY ON TAP AT SEEKONK SPEEDWAY

SEEKONK, Mass. — With just six weeks of racing left in the 2024 season, Seekonk Speedway will be back on the track this week on both Friday and Saturday night. On Friday, the finale of the Everett’s Auto Parts Triple Crown Series is set for all five divisions after raining out last week. On NASCAR Saturday, the Spectator Drags join the card along with the Pro Stocks, Late Models, Helger’s Sportsman and Chaz’s Sport Trucks.


Action on Friday begins at 7 p.m., while Saturday goes green at 6 p.m.


Seekonk’s Pro Stock division saw Dylan Estrella fend off Vinnie Arrenegado last week. Vinnie captured yet another second-place finish, and now, can Arrenegado finally break through? If not, who will? Bobby Pelland III, the points leader, will be tough in Saturday’s 40-lap feature. Fans should also look out for Mark Jenison, Colbey Fournier and Mike Brightman, who will all be looking to visit Victory Lane, among others.


The Late Model class has a close battle around the Sunoco Drive For the Cup cutline, with Connor Souza up by just 11 points for the final spot over former champion Mark Jenison. The story of the last two weeks has been Charlie Rose, who sliced through the field to win both events. The competition will be tight with those three drivers in this week’s 30-lap feature, along with Jacob Burns, Luke Lebrun, Chase Belcher, Richie Murray, Andrew Gomes and others.


The Helger’s Sportsman field chased Adam Petty last week, as he captured the win and the Triple Crown title in their 35-lap feature. The story of the season has been the consistency of Colby Lambert, but he hasn’t won yet. Can this week be the night in the 25-lap main event? Those two will have to fight off names like Josh Hedges, Tyler Almeida, Jimmy “Pepe” Silvia, Scott Serydynski Jr., Gerry DeGasparre Jr and others.


Chaz’s Auto Body Sport Truck drivers have chased Mike Duarte all year in the points, but he also hasn’t won a race. Rick Martin has been the most consistent driver other than Duarte, positioning himself second in the current standings. Tim Bolger Jr. is coming off another win last week, while Jake Vanada and Amy Arsenault aren’t far behind them. Can Mike Cavallaro use a podium last week the momentum from it rocket to Victory Lane this week?


On Fast Friday, the Nick’s Pit Stop Legends Cars Triple Crown field is set with two winners and two points contenders. Josh Parsons and Chase Silvia won the two Triple Crown events so far to advance to the Finals, while Jacob Burns and Richie Helger Jr. also earned spots. This pins two drivers from Nick Lascuola Racing (Parsons, Burns) up against two from Richie Helger Racing (Helger, Silvia). All four of these drivers have been quick all season and all use the Triple Crown as one of their goals entering the season. Who captures the crown in the 30-lap feature? Can someone like Stephen Bowden or Ryan Vanasse Jr. earn their first career win in Friday’s extra-distance race?


LEGENDS CARS FINALISTS: Josh Parsons, Chase Silvia, Jacob Burns, Richie Helger Jr. 


Pure Stock competition will be exciting in the Triple Crown finale, set for 30 laps. Contending for the Everett’s title will be Jared Cordeira, Ethan Souza, Danny Massa and Mike Henriques. Souza and Massa advanced to the finals with wins in the first two Triple Crown events of the season, while Cordeira and Henriques earned their spots on points - two of the most consistent drivers all year. All four contenders have been quick this season. Of a possible 100 points between the first two races, all four drivers earned at least 90. This one should go right down to the final laps. Will it take a victory in the race to score the Triple Crown title?


PURE STOCK FINALISTS: Jared Cordeira, Ethan Souza, Mike Henriques, Danny Massa


The Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Bandit Everett’s Triple Crown Final Four includes Luka Dib, David Bernier, Mason Silva and Jase Chaber. Dib and Bernier have both won Triple Crown events already this season to advance to the Finals. In total, these four drivers have been inside the top-five in general in nearly all Bandolero Bandit events in 2024. They have all earned their spots in the Finals. Which one of the four carries the Everett’s Auto Parts Triple Crown Series title after 15 laps?


BANDOLERO BANDIT FINALISTS: Luka Dib, David Bernier, Mason Silva, Jase Chaber


Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Outlaw Triple Crown finalists include Bryson Robidoux, Parker Davis, Ryder Aguiar and Brody Wakefield. It was Robidoux and Wakefield who won both of the first two events to lock themselves in, while Davis and Aguiar earned their spots on points. It’s been Robidoux and Wakefield who have been consistently inside the podium this season, as the summer stretch is rolling on. Davis and Aguiar may have been quiet at times, but they made the finals and will look to pounce. Davis is also the most recent division winner. Who captures the Everett’s crown in their 15-lap feature?


BANDOLERO OUTLAW FINALISTS: Brody Wakefield, Bryson Robidoux, Parker Davis, Ryder Aguiar


The Everett’s Triple Crown Final Four in the Sport 4 division includes winners Justin Leduc and Matt Pion along with Tyler Duhancik and Richie Johnson. All four of these contenders have been strong this season. Pion and Leduc have the most wins in the division, while Duhancik captured two, including last Friday. Johnson may not have won yet, but the finale of the Triple Crown would be the perfect time to pounce. Which one of the four hoists the Everett’s Triple Crown title after 30 laps, and will someone else win the race?

SPORT 4 FINALISTS: Matt Pion, Justin Leduc, Richie Johnson, Tyler Duhancik


Action on Friday begins at 7 p.m., while Saturday goes green at 6 p.m.
