R.A.D. Automachine and T/A Engines are each putting up a $500 bonus for a record total of $1,000 that will go to the top rookie.
Jeremy Sorel was the top SK Light rookie in 2014 and not only was he the top rookie, but he was the third driver in the short history of the SK Light division at Stafford to win the championship as a rookie driver, joining Michael Gervias, Jr. and Matt Galko. With the backgrounds and racing experience that each of the 2015 SK Light rookie class drivers possess, there could be a fourth rookie championship winner.

fkasfas(Stafford Springs, CT)—After racing in the Late Model ranks at Waterford Speedbowl for the past 9 seasons, Waterbury native Vin Esposito will make his first foray into Late Model competition at Stafford Motor Speedway for the 2015 season. Esposito joins Richard Duranti and Stu Fearn as registered rookie drivers for the upcoming NASCAR Whelen All-American Series season and he is ready to try to win the SPAFCO Rookie of the Year award and the record $1,100 bonus that comes with winning the award.
“The last time I was a rookie was in 2005,” said Esposito. “I don’t usually try to race for rookie status because if there’s a young kid that I’m racing against, I’d rather see them win because those awards don’t mean that much to me. But with $1,100 on the line that changes my whole thinking. When there’s that kind of dollars behind the Rookie of the Year award we’ll give it all we have to try to win the bonus.”
