Justin Bonsignore Dominates Season Finale to Capture 2024 NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Championship

Justin Bonsignore Dominates Season Finale to Capture

2024 NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Championship

Bonsignore also takes home first Martinsville Grandfather Clock as he

moves into second on all-time wins list

 

MARTINSVILLE, Va. (Oct. 26, 2024) – Justin Bonsignore wasn't going to be denied his fourth NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour championship, as he dominated the season finale Virginia is for Racing Lovers 300 at Martinsville Speedway to take home the Grandfather Clock and the year-end title.

 

The championship marks Bonsignore's fourth title (2018, 2020, 2021, 2024), and the win – his first at Martinsville Speedway – gave him sole possession of second on the all-time Whelen Modified Tour wins list with 45.

 

A late-season surge in which he won the final three races of the season gave Bonsignore the edge over two-time Tour champion Ron Silk, as they carried their season-long contentious championship battle into the final race of season for the second year in a row.

 

"A year of hard work, a lot of ups and downs, the middle of September wasn't looking good, all of a sudden we got hot," Bonsignore said in Victory Lane. "Three in a row is something I've never done in my career, and to cap it off with a Grandfather Clock is just really awesome."

 

A year ago, Silk led Bonsignore by 13 points heading into the Martinsville season finale and held on to win the championship, but the tables were turned this year.

 

The pair of wins in the last two races leading into Martinsville gained Bonsignore a 10-point advantage over his rival as the title race loomed. The No. 51 Ken Massa Motorsports team brought the same car – the one with which Bonsignore won those races at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park and North Wilkesboro Speedway -- to Martinsville. They unloaded fast again, as he led practice and then won the pole for the championship race.

 

Silk, however, struggled in qualifying and started 13th in the race. And while Silk showed moments of speed, his championship hopes ultimately dissolved when mechanical issues took him out of the race with 60 laps remaining. He was relegated to a 17th-place finish.

 

The championship moment was especially meaningful for Bonsignore after he went home empty-handed following the season finale at Martinsville the last two seasons.

 

"We watched other people celebrate two years in a row here and we lost, and that's tough to watch back," said Bonsignore. "Just a lot of hard work by Ryan Stone and Ken Massa to keep things going in the direction we want to go.

 

"It's really had to put into words just how special this stuff is."

 

Matt Hirschman finished second, while Jacob Lutz was third. Austin Beers and Ryan Newman rounded out the top five.

 

Bonsignore finished the season with 673 points, while Silk finished second in the standings with 641. Patrick Emerling also put together a solid second half of the season with three wins and was third in the standings with 635 points.

 

Trevor Catalano was crowned the Sunoco Rookie of the Year after finishing eighth in points this season. He captured a win at Monadnock Speedway in July and recorded three top-five and four top-10 finishes this season.

 

The day which ended with the crowning of the 2024 champion opened with exciting news about 2025 and beyond for the Tour. NASCAR officials announced an extension of the entitlement partnership of the Tour, as Whelen Engineering, Inc. returns to the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour through 2029 in a partnership that guarantees increased team payouts starting with the 2025 season. The extension of the entitlement of the Whelen Modified Tour brings the partnership to 25 years in 2029, making them one of the longest-running sponsors in NASCAR.

 

While the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour concluded their season at Martinsville Speedway, the half-mile track in Virginia still has one more race weekend remaining on the calendar for 2024.

 

Next weekend, the NASCAR Playoff races at Martinsville will set the Championship 4 for all three NASCAR national series. The weekend opens featuring the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Zip Buy Now, Pay Later 200 on Friday, Nov. 1.  

  

On Saturday, Nov. 2, fans can witness the action of the NASCAR Xfinity Series National Debt Relief 250 as drivers take to the track for an intense battle. Then, on Sunday, Nov. 3, drivers in the NASCAR Cup Series will compete for those final spots in the Championship 4 in the Xfinity 500, the penultimate race of the season.   

 

Limited tickets remain for Sunday's showdown, and fans can purchase tickets to the 2024 NASCAR Playoffs Race Weekend via phone at 877-RACE-TIX or online at martinsvillespeedway.com.

Whelen Engineering Inc. Returns as NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Entitlement Partner

Whelen Engineering Inc. Returns as NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Entitlement Partner

  • Partnership includes increased financial commitment to driver payout throughout finishing order
  • NASCAR also announces 2025 Whelen Modified Tour schedule

 

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Oct. 26, 2024) – NASCAR today announced an extension of the entitlement partnership of its original series as Whelen Engineering, Inc. returns to the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour through 2029 in a partnership that guarantees increased team payouts starting with the 2025 season. In conjunction with the announcement, NASCAR released the 16-race 2025 Whelen Modified Tour schedule.

 

Whelen's commitment to the Whelen Modified Tour in the coming years will see the largest Tour purse increase in the last decade, with championship prize money increasing by 250%. Additionally, the entire starting field will see the benefits of the new partnership, as each entry will see a minimum $2,000 payout to start the race – in several cases more than double the current payout for lower-finishing positions. Race winners will get a minimum of $11,000 in Whelen payout.

 

"The heart of NASCAR is in our regional racing and long-time partners like Whelen help support the high quality racing our fans and competitors deserve in the grassroots programs," said Joseph Dennewitz, Managing Director of NASCAR Regional. "By building up the purse for all in the garage, Whelen is putting their money where their mouth is in ensuring the success and health of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour for years to come."

 

Competitors in the Whelen Modified Tour will begin seeing the benefits of the extended partnership next season at the season opener at New Smyrna Speedway on Saturday, Feb. 8. This will mark the fourth consecutive year that the Tour will open at the track that is just down the road from the birthplace of NASCAR.

 

The Whelen Modified Tour is NASCAR's oldest and original series, which began racing in 1948 in Daytona Beach. The partnership between Whelen and the Tour originated with the 2005 season, and over the past two decades, Whelen has demonstrated a continued commitment to the dedicated fans and competitors of the Tour. The extension of the entitlement of the Whelen Modified Tour brings the partnership to 25 years in 2029, making them one of the longest-running sponsors in NASCAR.

 

"We are incredibly proud to extend our longstanding partnership with NASCAR and celebrate 20 years as the title sponsor of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour," said Peter Tiezzi, General Manager of Motorsports for Whelen Engineering Company Inc. "For the past two decades, being part of this iconic series has been both an honor and a reflection of our commitment to grassroots racing. As the Official Warning Lights of NASCAR, we are excited to continue supporting the sport while further strengthening our ties within the racing community. This partnership highlights our dedication to safety and performance, both on and off the track."

 

The Tour will continue to partner with NASCAR national series event weekends to highlight the extremely competitive nature of the racing. On Sunday, May 18, the Whelen Modified Tour will be part of a unique double-header as the opening act for the NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro Speedway.

 

Richmond Raceway will host the Tour on Thursday, Aug. 14, as part of its late summer NASCAR weekend, and the Tour joins the lineup for the NASCAR Playoff weekend at New Hampshire Motor Speedway with a Saturday, Sept. 20, race.

 

On Saturday, Oct. 18, Martinsville Speedway will again host the championship race as an opener for a week of camping and fan activity that leads into the national series Playoff weekend.

 

Fan favorite Whelen Modified Tour tracks such as Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park (Connecticut), Monadnock Speedway (New Hampshire), and Riverhead Raceway (New York) will each host multiple events.

 

"We are proud to once again have a strong mix of types of tracks on the 2025 Whelen Modified Tour schedule that allow our drivers to put on an impressive show for fans in multiple markets," said Jimmy Wilson, Senior Director, NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour. "As you can see by the quality of racing and the intense championship battle to the end this year, these events showcase the various strengths of each of our drivers and allow for competitive racing from the first race to the finale."

 

Thompson will host a trio of high-profile events, starting with the Sunday, March 30, event as part of the Icebreaker Weekend – now the second race on the Tour's schedule. They will also host a Wednesday night mid-summer showdown on Aug. 6, and the penultimate race of the season as part of the World Series of Speedway Racing on Sunday, Oct. 12.

 

Monadnock will host two events on Saturday, May 3, and Saturday, July 19. Riverhead will have a pair of races on Saturday, June 14, and Saturday, Sept. 6.

 

Seekonk Speedway (Saturday, May 31), Lancaster Motorplex (Saturday, July 12), Oswego Speedway (Saturday, Aug. 30) will once again host Tour races next season. Additionally, White Mountain Motorsports Park returns to the Whelen Modified Tour schedule for 2025. The New Hampshire track previously held a pair of Tour races in 2020.

 

"The short tracks of the Northeast are at the heart of the Whelen Modified Tour and offer so many options for our teams to compete close to home in front of their friends and family," added Wilson. "We have strong historic ties to many of these facilities and all host great events for everyone who comes through their gates."

 

The NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour will crown its champion later today (Saturday, Oct. 26) at 8 p.m. ET at Martinsville Speedway.

 

Over the two-decade partnership Whelen has held with the Modified Tour, 10 different drivers have won the Whelen Modified Tour championship, led by Doug Coby's six titles (2012, 2014-17, 2018) and three from Justin Bonsignore (2018, 2020, 2021). Ron Silk, the reigning champion, also won the title in 2011.

 

This season, in one of the more thrilling – and contentious – championship battles in Tour history, Silk and Bonsignore are continuing the rivalry stemming from their down-to-the-wire title bout from a year ago.

 

Silk entered the penultimate race of the season last week at North Wilkesboro Speedway up by 11 points. But a dominate win on Sunday afternoon by Bonsignore flipped the script and put the driver of the No. 51 atop the points standings for the first time since August with a 10-point advantage entering the finale. Each driver heads into the championship race with four wins and 14 top 10s. 

 

Tonight's championship race may be streamed live on FloRacing, while schedule and ticket information is available at nascar.com/whelen-modified-tour.

Main Event Sunday at the 31st Annual APC Autumn Colours Classic



Main Event Sunday at the 31st Annual APC Autumn Colours Classic
By Jim Clarke, Clarke Motorsports Communications/First Draft Media
Giving thanks was easy as talented group of short track racers and a near capacity crowd gathered for the featured events of the 31st annual APC Autumn Colours Classic – Sunday, October 13th – at Peterborough Speedway.

Local favourites Ryan Kimball and Dan McHattie brought the KOD Disposal Late Model field to the green flag for the Electric City 167. Kimball – the 2024 Peterborough track champion – was the early race leader, as slower traffic was put a lap down with only 11 laps on the scoreboard. McHattie, who had been closing on Kimball took over the top spot with 17 laps complete. The race pace was slowed for an incident in the 3rd turn, with the No. 71 of McHattie holding the lead on the restart and moving out to an advantage of more than10 cars over his closest challenger. Several yellow flags may have slowed the race pace, but McHattie – a multi-time track champion and former Autumn Colours winner – was the leader at the lap 82 competition caution. Picking-up where he left off following the mid-race break, McHattie lost the lead to Kimball in lapped traffic, with Andrew Gresel taking control of the event on a lap 123 restart. The former Autumn Colours Classic winner maintained the race lead through a series of late-stage caution flags to take the win. Dustyn Mombourquette, McHattie, Kelly Balson and Brandt Graham rounded-out the top 5 finishers.
A 40-lap tilt for the Trailers Plus Ontario Legend Car Series, presented by B & G Towing and Recovery. Matt Boyes and Wes Cuthbertson brought the starting field from the staging area for the season ending main event. Boyes was the early race leader, but the pace was slowed quickly for an incident on the front stretch. With the field back under green, Wes Cuthbertson was the new race leader and was joined by Cole McFadden and Adam Cuthbertson. Several caution flags slowed the field, with Mitch Wright taking the race lead following a lap 13 yellow. The No. 21 car has been strong throughout the year and his Autumn Colours Classic run was no exception. Wright held the lead for the balance of the main event to score the race win over Wes Cuthbertson. Jade Franklin, Cole McFadden and Jordan Latimer completed the top 5.
With Phil Givens and Jo Lawrence on the front row, the Battlefield Equipment Rental Bone Stock teams took to the track known for 'Making Memories for Life' with a 40-lap feature standing in the way of an Autumn Colours Classic title. With Givens leading, the pace was slowed by a pair of early race caution flags. Given and Lawrence broke away from the pack with a lead of about 10 car lengths over the 3rd place runner before a late race yellow brought the pack back together for a last chance showdown. Lawrence pushed his No. 28 ride to its limits and scored the win. Givens took the checkered flag in 2nd spot, with Spencer Riddell, Jordan Willms and Craig Cole next across the line.
Rob Bromley and Steve Book were on the front row as the OSCAAR Hot Rod runners rolled-out for their 'A' main event. From the drop of the green flag, the pair had control of the pack and started working through some slower cars with 10 laps on the scoreboard. With close to a dozen laps complete, Rick Spencer-Walt wheeled the No. 31 into the lead and held the position through a lap 14 yellow flag and the subsequent restart. Another caution period slowed the pace, but Spencer-Walt was up to the challenge and had close to a half track's advantage over the 2nd place runner. Rick Spencer-Walt was first to the checkered flag to claim the win. Bromley, Amanda Balson, Book and Tyler Hawn completed the top 5.
With 67 laps to settle the score on the table, the SwitchTire Mini Stock feature – in memory of Melissa Bullen – saw Shawn Taylor and 2023 Track Champion Nolan Gould leading the way. Taylor – who has an Autumn Colours Classic win on his resume – showed the fast way around during the early stages and was part of a group of 9 runners that was working through the pack with about 25 laps on the scoreboard. Doug Butler challenged Taylor for the lead and came out with the top spot as the lap counter showed 50 complete. Charlie Smith was the benefactor in a green, white checkered finish and parked his No. 95 ride in Dart Heating and Air Conditioning Victory Lane. Will Gibbons, James Townsend, Mike Nelson and Bobby Mercer chased Smith across the stripe.
Lane Zardo and Paul Pepper had the front row spots for the Jiffy Lube Super Stock 40-lap feature tilt. The Zardo name has been synonymous with success in the season-ending event at Peterborough Speedway and the 2024 edition was no exception. Even with multiple yellow flags throughout the race distance and some finger-pointing in the winner's circle, Zardo managed to lead every lap on the way to his family's latest Autumn Colours Classic triumph. Shawn Chenoweth got the best of torrid battle with Tyler Hawn and Todd Davenport to take the runner-up spot. Coltin Everingham was 5th. Hard work by her crew allowed crowd favourite Marlie Owen to bounce-back from an issue that put her several laps down early to claim a top 10 finish.
A 50-lapper for the OSCAAR Modifieds closed-out the 31st edition of the APC Autumn Colours Classic, as Wally Wilson and Steve Trendell brought the pack to the Great Canadian RV green flag. Early race leader Wilson held the dominant hand until T.J. Edwards claimed the top spot with a dozen laps complete. The driver of the No. 34 piece was a man on a mission and quickly had an advantage of half a track over the 2nd and 3rd place runners. The night's finale ran from green flag to checkered without a yellow, as Edwards scored the win. Rick Spencer-Walt, Wilson, Trendell and Jason Keen completed the top 5 at the finish.
All finishing positions are unofficial and subject to scoring review and post race inspection.
Bullring bullet points: While early versions of the weekend weather forecast had many asking if events might be rescheduled or postponed, this year's edition of the APC Autumn Colours Classic entered the record books without a hitch. Although cloudy and cool during Sunday's championship finals, the raceday line-up was completed exactly as planned…With another version of the Super Bowl of Stock Car complete, track owner and promoter J.P. Josiasse would like to thank officials, staff and volunteers who are part of the regular season and Autumn Colours Classic schedule.
Plans are currently underway for the 2025 agenda at the venue known for 'Making Memories for Life'. Keep checking www.peterboroughspeedway.com or the track's social media platforms and pages for the latest news and information.

NASCAR to Expand Campus Lab Program Starting Next Semester at Winston-Salem State University

NASCAR to Expand Campus Lab Program Starting Next Semester at Winston-Salem State University

The Initiative Launched in 2023 at Daytona-based HBCU Campus will be Available in Florida and North Carolina Starting in 2025

 

 

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (Oct. 13, 2024) – After a successful kick-off semester at Bethune-Cookman University in Daytona Beach, NASCAR announced today the expansion of the Campus Lab Program. Starting in the spring semester of 2025, students at Winston-Salem State University will also have the opportunity to join the program that targets highly motivated students interested in pursuing careers in the fast-paced sports industry and will provide them with hands-on experience through a specialized curriculum.

 

"The goal of the NASCAR Campus Lab Program is to provide exposure to the motorsports industry, and we were able to accomplish that over the past year and a half since launching the program", said Caryn Grant, Senior Director of NASCAR Diversity and Inclusion. "As a result, we've introduced career opportunity, experience and guidance that has positively impacted participants, including a student from the inaugural cohort at Bethune-Cookman University who earned a spot in the NASCAR Diversity Internship Program and was then hired at NASCAR. We look forward to continuing to develop future professionals at Winston-Salem State University and making a similar impact."

 

Winston-Salem State University is located in North Carolina. It is the only HBCU and only public university to offer a motorsports management degree program. Currently, NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series driver Rajah Caruth is a full-time student at WSSU pursuing a degree in motorsports management. He made history earlier this year as the third Black driver to win a NASCAR national series race.

 

Students accepted to the NASCAR Campus Lab Program will get real-world experience developing a marketing activation while managing a set budget provided by NASCAR, compete in a case study competition, get a behind-the-scenes view of careers throughout the industry, be paired with a mentor from NASCAR's Black employee resource group, and receive resume and interview tips from human resources professionals.

 

Upon completion of the program, NASCAR will provide participating students with a scholarship prize, and at least one eligible student will earn a spot in the highly competitive NASCAR Diversity Internship Program for the upcoming summer. NDIP was launched in 2000 and since then more than 500 college students have participated in the industry's longest-running diversity initiative.

"We're thrilled to collaborate with NASCAR in establishing this innovative campus lab, which will provide our students with hands-on exposure to the motorsports industry," said WSSU Chancellor Bonita Brown. "This partnership opens the door to unique career opportunities, allowing our students to engage in STEM fields, business, and marketing. Together, we're breaking new ground and paving the way for a more diverse future in racing while positioning our students for successful careers in the motorsports industry."

 

The NASCAR Campus Lab Program is open to sophomores and juniors at Winston-Salem State University within the college of arts, sciences, business and education who have a demonstrated interest in working in the sports industry. Applications for the spring 2025 cohort will open October 8 and close November 1.

Mike Harris Named 2025 Squier-Hall Award Recipient

Harris spent three decades as lead motorsports reporter for The Associated Press

By Jim Clarke, Clarke Motorsports Communications/First Draft Media
It'll all be on the line Friday, October 11th as the Ontario Modifieds Racing Series, presented by GEN-3 Electrical closes its 2024 schedule during the APC Autumn Colours Classic at Peterborough Speedway.
"Even with the opening round of the schedule delayed by weather, our teams still brought some solid numbers to the track for every event", explained OMRS group official and driver of the No. 90 machine, Rick Warnes. "A quick look at the point standings will show that our series' performance at Peterborough and Flamboro Speedways was spread-out pretty evenly during the year."
Heading into the championship finale, John Baker Jr. holds-down the top spot in the point standings, with an advantage of less than 25 points over Tyler Bouillon. Rick Warnes, Rob Warnes and defending rookie of the year Andrew Massey round-out the top 5 positions in the running order. Bouillon has recorded 4 main event wins this year, including the August 31st Maebrae Classic Memorial. 'JBJ' scored a trio of feature victories, including the 30 and 31-lap headliners that made-up the July 20th Bill Pickford Memorial. Rick Warnes added his second career main event win Saturday, August 10th at Peterborough.

Lussier wins the race, Championship on final weekend at Airborne Park.

PLATTSBURGH, Ny. -- St. Denis, Quebec's Donovan Lussier has been one of the most successful drivers anywhere in 2024. With nine sportsman wins at Airborne Park and three more at Autodrome Granby, Lussier has enjoyed quite the year. His pairing with the Boissonneault No. 61 race team prior to the 2024 season was a major success early, as he secured the first two J&S Steel Sportsman features of the season in Plattsburgh.

 

As the summer went on, Lussier continued winning, establishing himself as a championship contender, alongside Joey Scarborough and early points leader Nick Heywood. Heywood's fortune faded in the waning weeks of summer, and Scarborough and Lussier set themselves apart from the field to settle the $5,000 track title between themselves.

 

Entering the weekend, Scarborough had a 12-point advantage. The most consistent driver of the year, Scarborough finished in the top 10 in 16 of 19 races, 11 times in the top-five. As the Elegance Coating Championship 100 began on Sunday evening, Lussier started towards the front of the grid and Scarborough started on the opposite end, transferring through a consolation race. While Travis Bruno and Jamy Begor rocketed away from the field on lap one, Scarborough was collected in an incident that saw Chris Cayea upside down with Codie Aubin involved as well.

 

When the race got going again, Lussier began making his way forward from his 6th starting spot while Scarborough worked through the field. Lussier took the lead on lap 12 and Scarborough was up to 17th. As the race went on and some rubber developed on the low groove, Scarborough's progress stalled and Lussier continued to lead.

 

Different contenders emerged, challenging him through traffic. Fire Swamp, Bruno and Jordan Fornwalt all took turns running behind Lussier trying to track him down.

 

On lap 72, a restart bunched up the field, resulting in an accident involving Tanner Siemons, Tanner Forbes, Dylan Rabtoy and Scarborough, among others. When the track was clear and racing resumed, Scarborough had a bent front axle and an ill-handling machine, but he did not quit. The Brandon, V.T. driver made his way forward in the final laps, trying to secure as many positions as possible.

 

Up at the front, Lussier was trying to hold off Fornwalt in lapped traffic, and in the final 10 laps the drama was high. Fornwalt nearly went by for the lead as they lapped Gary English on the front straightaway, but Lussier prevailed. On the final lap, Beau Reeves and Evan Roberts nearly impeded the leader's progress again, but Lussier snuck by to take the win. Fornwalt was 2nd with Bruno 3rd, Michael Wright 4th and Vince Quenneville, Jr., 5th. Scarborough finished 14th, coming up six points shy of the title. Travis Bruno finished 3rd in points.

 

Eric Shaw earned the CleanEngine Hard Charger Bonus, going from 28th to 11th, passing 17 cars.

 

Sunday also featured the crowning of Shawn Duquette as the 9th State Cannabis Renegade Champion. Duquette capped off the year with a 3rd place finish in the 40-lap finale for the full-fendered renegades, making a perfect 18 top-fives in 18 races, including three wins. The winner of the final feature of the year was Essex, Ny.'s Josh Terry, who worked his way to the front quickly, assuming the lead on lap two after getting around Bart VanLuevan and Shawn Fountain, along with Richie Turner and Tyler Irwin. Terry led the rest of the way on the bottom, nabbing his 4th win of the year. Nate Guay was 2nd. The Precision Heating and A/C Hard Charger was Nate Guay, going from 8th to 2nd.

 

The 500cc mini sprint segment race was completed Sunday, putting Orwell, V.T.'s Ray Hanson in Victory Lane. The young Destin St. Clair, from Peru, Ny. won the first segment on Saturday, impressing his hometown crowd, but the invert for Sunday's lineup gave the youngster some trouble, and it was the veteran Hanson who was able to navigate traffic and secure the win in segment No. 2 with St. Clair coming up to finish 3rd, giving him 2nd place overall after the two segments. Jenna Zakrzewski was 3rd in the overall. Both segments were 10 laps, and both were caution-free.

 

The final mini-stock race of 2024 was a show-up points, home-track rules race, inviting other area mini stocks to compete with Airborne's regulars. Forty cars signed in to compete, with about 30 Airborne Park Regulars and 10 invaders from Devil's Bowl and other tracks. Freeport, M.E.'s Jason Porter charged from 23rd to win the 15-lap main event, passing Josh LaPorte, Sr. on a late restart to take the win, after drawing the 4th-worst chip and starting in the last row of his heat race, barely making the A-main transfer to the 25-car field. LaPorte, Sr. held on for 2nd with Speedy Bresette 3rd. Kenny Tourville led a number of laps and finished 4th with Greg Zindler charging from 22nd to 5th. JP Corrow held off Jeremy Brownell to win the B-feature and transfer to the A-main. Corrow came up to finish 16th.

 

The 2024 Moore Recycling Mini Stock Champion is Ryan Senecal. Despite a wild final few weeks of the year that saw the point lead change hands multiple times with DNF results for Speedy Bresette and Senecal both, the Plattsburgh native collected one win, but struck the top-five 11 times in 18 races and added three more finishes between 6th and 10th. Clintonville's Rick Doner was 2nd in the final standings, 38 points back. Bresette was 3rd, 57 markers back.

 

Saturday's racing program was jam-packed full of action, offering a J&S Steel Sportsman Feature, limited sportsman, pro stocks, crown vics, mini stocks, a segment for the mini sprints, and a 50-lap, $1,000-to-win Chris Frennier Motorsports enduro.

 

Chris Cayea of Mooers Forks, Ny. won the 25-lap non-winners' race for the J&S Steel Sportsman Saturday. Cayea started on the point and led all 25 laps, holding off Jordan Fornwalt in the final five laps to score the win. Michael Wright was 3rd with Michael Wagner-Fitzgerald 4th and Taylor Wason 5th.

 

Young Caleb Durgan won the limited sportsman feature on Saturday with a decisive move in lapped traffic late in the race to take the lead from Ripton, V.T.'s Don Williams, who impressed in his Airborne Park debut with the limiteds, leading fourteen of the 25 laps before surrendering the lead to Durgan in lapped traffic. He went on to finish 2nd. Logan Denis was 3rd with Gary English, Jr., 4th and Keith Pelkey 5th.

 

Seventeen cars entered the pro stock race on Saturday. Burton Ward and Robert Larocque won the heat races, before an invert turned the lineup around for the 25-lap main event. Queensbury, Ny.'s Kyle Hoard started on the pole alongside Massena's Kevin Fetterly. Jonathan Levesque immediately established himself as a contender on the bottom, but Hoard held him off and pulled out to a few car length advantage. That gap stayed pretty even until a pair of late restarts, one of which put Burton ward on Hoard's outside, but Ward attempted to get down to the bottom entering turn one, resulting in a melee behind the leaders, setting up a battle between Bruno Cyr and Hoard for the win. With a few laps left, Hoard had trouble in turns three and four, bringing Cyr right to the back bumper, but Hoard held him off and went on to win. Cyr was 2nd with Deni Gauvreau 3rd. Fetterly was 4th and Caron was 5th.

 

Eric Friend won the inaugural crown vic feature at Airborne Park Speedway. Matt Moaghan had the field covered in the heat race aboard his No. 9TH car, but just like St. Clair in the mini sprints, the invert gave him some trouble on the slick track. While Friend started 3rd and took the lead on lap two, Monaghan had to slowly work through the field, picking off cars one by one. He arrived in 2nd position with a few laps to go, but Friend was six seconds ahead at that point, and Moaghan couldn't catch up. Chad Merrill was 3rd following a great battle between him and 4th place runner Zach Wood that lasted nearly the entire race. Both the heat and feature went caution-free.

 

Saturday's Moore Recycling Mini Stock Feature was won by Kris Clark of Keeseville. JP Corrow started 2nd and led the first two laps before Speedy Bresette took the lead from 7th. Clark started 19th on the grid, arriving at the front by halfway. He battled fiercely with Bresette for the win with Rick Doner looking on from 3rd. Ryan Senecal was 4th, securing the championship. Cale Manor was 5th. The B-feature was won by Jeremiah King.

 

The Chris Frennier Motorsports Enduro was won by Brent Wilbur. Wilbur, a multi-time enduro winner at Devil's Bowl Speedway in the last two years, drew the pole position for the 49-car starting field, leading every step of the way to score the win in his Airborne Park Speedway debut. Wilbur's win was made possible, in large part, by his ability to lap several of the drivers starting at the back of the pack in the first 10 laps, including the regular "ringers," drivers with regular or semi-regular racing experience in other divisions, like Michael Wright, Eric Messier and Richie Turner.

 

The 2024 season at Airborne Park Speedway has come to a close. Airborne Park Speedway wishes to thank every fan, competitor, official and crew member for their support this season. The awards banquet will be held on Friday, November 22nd at the Rainbow Banquet Hall in Altona. More details will be available in the coming weeks on the Airborne Park Speedway website and Facebook page.
