(Stafford Springs, CT)—After taking a year away from racing, Windsor Locks native Jeremy Lavoie is ready to get back in the saddle at Stafford Speedway. Lavoie got started in the DARE Stock division 2012 and in 2013 he won 4 races and challenged for the championship. The 2015 season will see Lavoie move up to the Limited Late Model division and challenge for R.A.D. Automachine / T/A Engines Rookie of the Year honors.
“I’m excited to get back in the car,” said Lavoie. “I’m a little nervous, but I’m sure that will all go away once I get strapped in. I figured I already had a couple of years experience in the DARE Stocks and we had a pretty successful second year, so I thought I’d make the transition and move up to the standard transmission and a higher class of competition and see how we roll. I don’t plan on being able to come in and light up the field, but we can learn a lot.”
