“TC” Conquers Monadnock Speedway
Winchester, NH: After a twenty year hiatus the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour was welcomed by standing room only from fans from near and far at Monadnock Speedway this past Saturday. It gave some folks the opportunity to see old friends and make lasting new ones. The 5pm early start time started out overcast and then clear hot skies were braved by all in attendance to see history in the making. Tour driver Mike Stefanik would make his 400th career start. As the events would unfold it would prove that the fastest 1/4 mile high-bank lies here in Winchester, NH.
Qualifying for our divisions would start the night with Mini-Stocks, Super Stocks, Outlaw Pros, and Sportmen Modifieds. After these heats it would be time trials from the NASCAR Whelen Modifieds, and fans were glued to their seats. Fans watched to see who would put down the throttle along with being able to handle the two very different sets of corners. Last, but in this case not least, we would see Erick Rudolph as the final car to qualify snatch the pole with an impressive time of 12.423.
