STAFFORD LATE MODEL TITLE FIGHT AGAIN COMING DOWN TO HOMETOWN DRIVERS RYAN POSOCCO AND WOODY PITKAT
(Stafford Springs, CT)—Just as it was one year ago, the fight for the
Stafford Speedway Late Model track championship is coming down to two
hometown drivers, Ryan Posocco and Woody Pitkat. Posocco currently leads
Pitkat by 32 points in the chase for the championship with 4 races left on
the 2011 calendar. Last season, the championship was not decided until the
final lap of the CARQUEST Fall Final Weekend race. At this time last
season, Posocco led Pitkat by 38 points, but a crash by Posocco, combined
with a win by Pitkat, tightened up the championship fight for the final 2
races of the season. The 2010 championship was decided by only 2 points, or
one position on the track, in Posocco’s favor, and both drivers know that
although time is running out, anything can happen.
