With only four stock car racing events remaining in the 2013 season including Interstate All Battery Center of Rutland Night presented by the Green Mountain Water Environment Association on Friday, August 9, Todd Stone of Middlebury, VT has grabbed the lead in the national Rookie of the Year standings for the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series. |
Devil’s Bowl Speedway is one of 55 North American short tracks sanctioned by the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series (NWAAS) program, with its open-wheel Bond Auto Parts Modified class designated as the “Division I” group. Each NWAAS track assigns a Division I class with drivers competing against each other under a common point structure for state and national championships. As a first-year NASCAR Division I license holder, Stone qualifies as a rookie in the NWAAS program. On the strength of seven victories in 11 starts, Stone has overtaken Modified driver Frank Cozze of Grandview (PA) Speedway by 22 points, 411-389. Late Model driver Bobby McCarty of South Boston (VA) Speedway is third, seven points behind Cozze. Stone ranks 49th in the overall national standings; Late Model driver Lee Pulliam of Semora, NC holds the lead as he pursues his second-straight title. Stone’s run to the top of the national standings is not unprecedented; Vince Quenneville, Jr., of Brandon, VT led the NWAAS national rookie standings in 2012 before finishing second to Oklahoma’s Brian Parker. The 2013 season NWAAS championship season wraps up on Sunday, September 15, which is the closing date of the “Vermont 200 Weekend” finale at Devil’s Bowl. Stone will try to build on his lead on Interstate All Battery Center of Rutland Night presented by Green Mountain Water Environment Association, which begins at 7:00pm on Friday, August 9. The event includes kids racecar rides, the unpredictable and exciting “Spectator Races” in which fans drive their street-legal vehicles in single-lap elimination races, and championship events for the Late Model, Renegade, and Central Vermont Motorcycles Mini Stock divisions. Regular general admission is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, and free for children 12 and under. Devil’s Bowl Speedway is located on Route 22A in West Haven, VT, four miles north of Exit 2 on U.S. Route 4. For more information, visit www.devilsbowlspeedwayvt.com or call (802) 265-3112.
