Modified Tour standouts Justin Bonsignore, Woody Pitkat and Eric Goodale will also vie for the $10K purse.
Riding the momentum of a strong start to the 2017 season in sprint car action in the Midwest, Bobby Santos III will take part in the event at Seekonk. With the likes of Blake Barney, Jimmy Zacharias, Andy Jankowiak, and Earl Paules the ‘invaders’ will be well-represented during Tri-Track Open Modified Series competition. Fans can expect to see competitors from throughout New England and beyond.
The event promises plenty of excitement with $10,000 on the line and a roster that features some of the best Modified racers in the country in 100-laps of green flag racing. Also on the racing card is the prestigious Boston Louie Memorial for the Northeastern Midget Association and the NEMA Lites.
Pit gates open at 10am. Grandstands open at 4pm with racing scheduled to go green at 6:30pm. Entry to Seekonk Speedway’s pit area is $35. Grandstand admission is only $25.

Yes Sir, going to be a dandy. I already took off the next day. Nice surprise seeing the 44 team entered. Always a few last minute entries for this one too. Could push 50 cars. Would be nice to see the 2 team defend.
Strong field, should be a great event and i plan on being there.
One of the best shows of the year for only 25 bucks front gate admission. There are no odds on favorite for this event. Anyone can win.
I’m all in along with the part animals I hang out with for this Tri-track race, probably 40-45 cars in attendance based on the past local performance of this series and only $25 grandstand admission. Too bad Tri-track dumped the New London Waterford Speedbowl 8/23 race when there is still more than 2 months time for the Speedbowl to sort out its issues. IMO the Speedbowl offers the best racing of all the tri-track events, even at $30 its well worth it. There is no way I am going to travel to NH to see a modified race regardless of which series it is and how low the ticket price is. Also we have made the decision of not wasting my money on the MTS this year until they can consistently bring significantly more than 20 cars, maybe 30 cars would be nice. The jury is still out on the VMRS but if they continue to have at least a full field I will go to their local events in CT.
