Looks like Tony Syewart wants to make the race an annual event, with proceeds donated to the Petty's Victory Junction Camp

My first exposure to racing on the East Coast was the dirt tracks at Stafford Motor Speedway ( CT ), along with dirt tracks at Fonda and Utica/Rome in NY. Also, the high banked asphalt oval in Norwood MA.

These were NASCAR sanctioned running at that time a " modified ", usually a cut down 1936 to 1938 Chev coupe along with other makes. Rene Charland was the National Modified Champ and also ran, occasionaly, at a non-NASCAR track , Riverside Park in Agawam MA

Great racing !!!!
