NASCAR WHELEN MODIFIED TALENTS PREECE, PENNINK READY FOR INDOOR THREE QUARTER MIDGET RACE NEW YEARS EVE IN PROVIDENCE
PROVIDENCE, RI (December 11, 2012) - A pair of NASCAR Modified
driving stars who have made their marks in New England racing circles
are among the entries for the December 31 ‘Coffee Cup;’ Indoor auto
racing program set for Dunkin’ Donuts Center in Providence, R.I.
Ryan Preece, a five time career winner on the NASCAR Whelen Modified
Tour and runner-up in the 2012 Series point standings, will be a first
time entry indoors.
Preece, 22, of Berlin, Ct., who also won the 2012 Thompson, Ct.
Speedway Modified track championship, has made a deal with Lou Cicconi
to drive his famed No. 75 that he competed in just this past weekend
in Baltimore, MD. It’s the same TQ that won both races held in
Providence in March.
The top prize to the race winner is the coveted Dunkin’ Donuts Center
‘Coffee Cup’ trophy and the lion’s share of the payoff.
The recent experience of Rowan Pennick, New Egypt, N.J., Modified
standout, in the December 8 TQ Indoor race in Baltimore, Md., should
prove encouraging to Preece - and Pennink.
Pennink, 27, had never driven a TQ midget and never raced indoors.
Yet the Modified talent won his heat race and was contending for the
victory before tangling with the leaders.
The Dunkin’ Donuts Center Coffee Cup race is second of three events
that make up the Fatheadz Eyewear Indoor Racing Series.
The Indoor auto racing events are produced by Len Sammons Motorsports
Productions.
A two-race weekend finale is scheduled for February 1-2, 2013 in
Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall.
Among the over four dozen TQ drivers who have entered the Fatheadz
Eyewear Indoor Racing Series Providence race are NASCAR Modified past
champion Ted Christopher, Plainville, Ct.; SK Modified racer Glen
Reen, Wilbraham, Ma; Chris Allen., Jr., Old Bridge, N.J.; 2012 ARDC
Midget driving champion Tim Buckwalter, Pottstown, Pa.; NASCAR
Modified past Rookie Of The Year Patrick Emerling; and second and
third place Baltimore TQ finishers Matt Janisch, Nazareth, Pa. and
Ryan Smith, Kunkletown, Pa.
Series sponsor Fatheadz is synonymous in the Midwest with open wheel
racing by marketing heavily in the Sprint car and Midget ranks since
it’s founding and sponsors other forms of motorsports throughout the
country.
The Providence race in Dunkin Donuts’ Center is the fifth Indoor race
at that venue promoted by Sammons. The December 31 scheduling - on
New Years Eve - has provided race teams and their followers with a
rare opportunity to compete against one another, then party the night
away and herald the coming of the New Year.
The Clarion Inn in Seekonk, Mass. will serve as the host hotel for the
Providence Indoor race.
Reservations, available at a reduced nightly rate of $89.00, may be
made by calling l-508-336-7300. With making reservations, ask for the
“Indoor Racing” special rate.
A gala post-race New Years’ Eve Party has been planned at the
Clarion, with a one hour buffet featuring a carving station,
complimentary beer and wine from 11 p.m. until the stroke of midnight
and a champagne toast to herald the arrival of 2013. A full cash bar
will be open from 10 PM to 11 PM and from 12 Midnight until 1 AM. A DJ
will provide music until 2.
Information is available by calling 609-888-3618 or by visiting the
