Woody Pitkat and the Dunleavy Racing team announced today that Pitkat will drive the No. 88 in the full Monaco Modified Tri-Track Series schedule in quest for the championship in 2024. 

The Tri-Track Series schedule includes eight events at seven different tracks, beginning with the Icebreaker at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park on Saturday, April 6. The season also includes visits to Thunder Road Speedbowl (May 26), Seekonk Speedway (June 26 and November 2), White Mountain Motorsports Park (July 27), New London-Waterford Speedbowl (August 10), Star Speedway (September 15) and Stafford Motor Speedway (September 28). 

Entering 2024, Pitkat has the second most all-time starts on the Monaco Modified Tri-Track Series with 45. Pitkat went to Victory Lane at New London-Waterford Speedbowl in 2015 and has 13 top-fives in those 45 starts. He’s excited to visit many tracks where he’s been successful in his career this season. Pitkat is a former multiple-time champion at both Thompson Speedway and Stafford Motor Speedway.

“Having the Tri-Track Series open the season at the Thompson Icebreaker is great for the race fans,” Pitkat said. “It’s going to be a mega weekend of racing there in April. I’ve had success at most, if not all, of the tracks on the Tri-Track Series schedule for 2024. Definitely looking forward to getting to the high-banks of White Mountain in July, it’s a great track for Modified racing. Working with Doug Dunleavy, Cam McDermott and the entire team has produced great success the last few years. We’re looking forward to chasing some trophies again this season.”

The team will also compete in the third race of the SMART Modified Tour season at South Boston Speedway, the King of the Modifieds event worth $20,000 to win, on Saturday, March 23.

Owned by Doug Dunleavy, Dunleavy’s Truck and Trailer Repair includes roadside service and a full-service diesel mechanic shop. For more information on them, call 203-775-9199 or visit dunleavysroadservice.com.

“Love working with Woody,” Dunleavy said. “There is nothing better than Modified racing in New England. We’re excited to race for a title with the Tri-Track Series, one of the best divisions there is anywhere in the country. The competition is great. See everyone at the track!”

  1. Tri Track is an Awesome schedule

  2. Sorry this is not related to this article. A few weeks ago, maybe prior to the world series someone put together an all-encompassing schedule for Tour Type Modified races. I remember I commented on it saying it was a great resource and said I planned on printing it out. Well, I didn’t print it out at that time and now I can’t find it. Anyone know what thread that was or if the person who posted it would be kind enough to cut and paste it into this comment section. That would be like super cool. thanks. Looking to take a road trip somewhere and hope to hit a few races at a new track or two.

    Glad to see Woody and that team are going to go to South Boston and vie for the 20K to win. It wasn’t for 20K to win but Andy Jankowiak beat all comers there last October using a “real racin engine” against all them NU$CAR spacs. From the grandstands and on Flo his car didn’t look like a brand new Fury, LFR or PSR either. That was real good therapy for me. Yes I know the stars had to align for Jankowiak to win it. I believe the last time the stars aligned like that was for Nocella at New Hampshire couple years ago in the Whelen tour race up there. For 20K maybe some of the top 5 or 6 from the Whelen tour might go to sop up the gravy and give Hirschman a run for his money. This time of year weather could be a problem but the race is scheduled for Saturday so they could use Sunday as a backup. The first race on the SMART schedule is tomorrow at Florence and I didn’t see Bobby Labonte’s name on the entry list. Not sure if Labonte wanted out but looks like one of Tommy Baldwin’s sons is in the Virginia politician’s car. Ryan Newman has left that team also. Maybe costs too much money to retain two former cup drivers? Anyhow I wouldn’t mind seeing Woody win that one.

  6. thanks Bob and Russ. I appreciate it. I printed it out and its stuck to the bulletin board. thank you.
