“We were looking to add some thunder to this years “Fall Challenge". Bringing in the Modified Racing Series does that. Several of the drivers with the series are former regulars here. It’s nice to be able to bring the drivers back, they have a lot of fans in this region.”

Bateman saw the opportunity to place a show back on the schedule that was lost to rain in June. “We posted a 20 race schedule last winter. This race will fill that void from the Seekonk rainout.” The series founder added, “Barring any rainouts, we could have a five-week layoff after Stafford. The addition of Twin State creates a great finish to the season. Three consecutive two-day events at three great race tracks.”

With the two-day format, it is the intent of the speedway to schedule the Modified Racing Series, sponsored by Bob Valenti AutoMall.com, feature race for a 3:00 PM start time on Sunday. Additional information will be forthcoming.
