Goodale Nabs First Modified Racing Series Win at Canaan
Canaan, NH-- Starting third in a 24 car field, Eric Goodale of

lap, Ricky Miller Memorial Race, Saturday night, at the Canaan
Fair Speedway, Canaan, NH. It was Goodale’s first win with the
series. He also became the ninth different winner in ten races
this season.

season history.
