The GSPSS will put a wrap on the 2016 racing season this Sunday at the New London-Waterford Speedbowl.

After an enduring season of racing across the New England region, the Granite State Pro Stock Series (GSPSS) is set to crown the 2016 champion this Saturday, Oct. 22., at the New London-Waterford Speedbowl.

The 3/8 mile Shoreline oval will play host to the Super Late Model Series in a 75 lap main event that will decide a championship battle that currently has two veterans at the top.

Belchertown, Mass. driver Barry Gray holds a 26 point advantage over Conway, N.H. native D.J. Shaw, who was also recently crowned the PASS champion for 2016. Gray has little experience at the Speedbowl, but is hoping to seal the deal in his No. 29. Though he is not a GSPSS champion, Gray has won championships in racing before.

“The past championship experience helps, but I’ve really only run Waterford a few times,” Gray said. “I can’t tell you how many times D.J. has run there but I know everywhere they go they are fast. My hat goes off to them. I just have to have some patience, but I’ve won a race for a long time every year and I haven’t won yet this year. I’m going there to win.”

On the other side, Shaw knows he will have to do everything he can and hope that Gray stumbles if he is going to win the title. But, he has the confidence in his team. They missed two races on the 2016 campaign and they are still in the fight.

“We need to stay out of trouble, last year we didn’t finish because we had a mechanical issue,” Shaw said. “Whether it be getting caught up in someone else’s mess or some bad luck, we need to finish and we need to finish towards the front to have a chance.”

The entry list for the event include multiple outsiders who will hope to capture the trophy. Brandon Turbush of Manorville, N.Y. has entered, along with names like defending race winner Derek Ramstrom, Corey Bubar, Jeff Pearl and former multiple time Seekonk Speedway Super Late Model champion David Darling.

Series regulars Cory Casagrande, Mike Parks, Mike Mitchell and reigning series champion going into the weekend Derek Griffith have also entered.

As an added bonus for drivers, The Racing Guys — Dick Williams and the supporters of the Tri Track Open Modified Series — have put up some bonus money for the event. The winner will receive an extra $125, while second place will pocket an extra $100.

Third place will also collect an added $75. There will also be two random selections of drivers from positions four through 24. Each of the two drivers will receive $75.

The GSPSS wishes to thank The Racing Guys for coming on board for the second straight season and providing some extra cash for drivers to chase.

The Granite State Pro Stock Series will have just a one day show on Saturday. Teams may not practice as part of the Friday afternoon practice session.

Saturday, grandstand gates open at 12 p.m., just in time for the only GSPSS practice of the weekend from 12-12:45 p.m. Heat racing begins at 1 p.m. and will be followed by the feature racing.

All grandstand tickets are $40 and will be accepted both for Saturday’s racing and Sunday’s Tri Track Open Modified Series show.

MOTOR DRIVING

By Ed Dornig

 2016 VW Beetle 1.8T Dune

 This 2016 Beetle 1.8T Dune caught my eye primarily because of its color. VW labeled it Sandstorm Yellow Metallic. Late in the 1990’s VW decided to redesign and reintroduce the Beetle making an attempt to boost sales in the American market. Although the shape of the Beetle remains similar, it was lacking a shapely balance. It seemed to appear a little ‘high’ in the middle of the roof. About three years ago another styling adjustment was made that corrected the shape making it look more like ‘the old Bug’. VW has also provided an improved 1.8L TSI double overhead cam 16V Turbo 4-cylinder direct injection engine. My transmission was a 6 speed automatic. This transmission had a feature on the control allowing the driver to manually control shift points. It has a wider track and a raised suspension allowing better handling and comfort. The tires were Continentals 235/45 X 18. This car in many ways is a sports car.

When entering this vehicle the door opens wide allowing the driver easy access into the sport seat. The seat is firm preventing you from sliding around if you start thinking that you are Mario Andretti. These sport seats have many adjustments which allow the driver to seek the correct position needed for the next trip. The driver can also adjust the steering wheel allowing the driver to obtain the proper grip of the leather-wrapped multi-function steering wheel. The driver is now ready to ‘use a key‘ to start the engine and enter the roadway.

Getting familiar with the basic controls such as the operation of heat, a/c, radio, cruise control and other features is easy. The radio, lights and heater controls have knobs. No hidden tricks. Cruise control and a few other functions are unique but not difficult to understand. A new driver of this VW will only have to get familiar with the positions of switches and buttons. It has been relatively easy for me considering I’ve never been a geek when it comes to new features on new cars. One thing this car does not have is the dreaded center Console ‘knob’ that is found on some new vehicles.

Once on the road the car accelerated without any hesitation. I did various movements allowing myself to get familiar with the vehicle. I drove 65 MPH and noticed the cabin noise was low considering the tires had just over 11,000 miles of use. The VW Beetle Dune is equipped with a large rear spoiler. I was not able to obtain the down force figures however, at high speed the car was firm, very stable and planted on the road. Exiting the highway on a curved ramp, I maintained speed making radical S turns and noticed that the car remained planted with no lean going thru all the turns. Approaching the stop line I did not experience any brake fade coming to a stop. My adjustment to the car was quick and easy. It was very predictable.

When driving I like to ‘feel’ the cars instead of just aiming it down the road. This car will provide a lot of fun moving from points A to B. The driving I did was combined with both around town and Interstate highways. I was in ‘testing’ mode many times using the engine to experience it’s power as well as driving on back roads feeling just how the handling was. The window sticker indicated fuel figures by EPA/DOT MPG as 25 city, 28 combined and 34 highway. The MPG I experienced driving this car was surprisingly. I averaged my varied driving and came up with 34.5 MPG. I believe that driving on a long trip  it would be much higher. The sticker price for this car was just over $25,000.

I realize that we’re near the end of the 2016 model season however, this car deserves a second look and is ideal for a driver that enjoys comfort and a fun driving experience. Take a look at it on line, ‘VW Beetle Dune’ and hit return. It would also be interesting to see if the ‘race car driver in the family’ could head to a local car club competition event and see if they could return home with a trophy. I’ll bet that they would.

You never know what type of racing machinery turns out every Gathering of the Faithful each year.

By Lou Modestino  Enterprise Correspondent (For Saturday, 10/22/16)

Today, Saturday, October 22 it’s the 17th Annual New England Speed Meeting and Gathering of The Faithful..  This is a show date change and a new date and goes from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with a rain date of Sunday, October 23.  The show is organized by FAST Northeast and Jack Wegman (Call if weather looks questionable). It will be held at Peirce Playground at 26 Jackson St. in Middleboro.

It’s a celebration of 17 years of Old School Speedway. All Pre-1960 rods, customs, vintage race cars and enthusiasts are welcome. This meeting Is for all types of vintage Speed 4’s, 6’s, 8’s and Flatheads, Also nailheads, Heimi’s, dragsters, gassers, vintage stock cars, sprint cars, midgets  and roundy rounds. Easy on – easy off trailer parking for race cars. Door prizes, food and refreshments including chowder.  Nostalgic T-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies will be available.

Tickets are $10 each payable at the Gate (children under 12 FREE). Vendor Space $25.00 (admits 2) – Limited space available, reserve early.  Goodie bags for the first 500 people. All proceeds from food sales go to the Rochester Lions Club. For more information contact:  Jack Wegman Email:  jackwegman@verizon.net   Phone:  508-888-3103.

The Tri Track Open Modified Series (TTOM) is set to conclude the 2016 season on Sunday Oct. 23 at New London-Waterford Speedbowl. Instead of the normal heat racing followed by the B-Main and feature, this event will take on a different format. The design of the race will be the exact same as last year’s Bemer’s Big Show at the Speedbowl, with twin 35 lap races starting the afternoon.

The two 35 lap races will each pay $3,000 to winner and the top 11 finishers in each race will advance into the 65 lap feature event that will pay $5,000 to win later in the afternoon. There will also be a 25 lap B-Main race, that pays $1,000 to win and the top four finishers will advance into the 65 lapper.

Coming into the event, 45 cars are currently pre-entered in hopes of taking down the big check. NASCAR XFINITY Series regular Ryan Preece will wheel the TS Haulers No. 6 on Sunday and he is joined by many of his fellow NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour competitors.

Justin Bonsignore is entered in the SPAFCO Chassis No. 21 for the Barry family, while Rowan Pennink is set to wheel Gary Casella’s No. 25. Names like Anthony Nocella, Todd Annarummo, Troy Talman and Waterford SK Modified regulars Ted Christopher and Keith Rocco have also filed an entry. Dick Houlihan of Bridewater, Rob Summers, Chris Pasteryak, Dylan Kopec and others are also scheduled to compete.

The 2016 Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists championship chase will also be decided on Sunday. Coming into the race, Matt “Money” Hirschman, Ron Silk, Woody Pitkat, Les Hinckley and Richard Savary of Canton are the only drivers who are eligible to leave the track with the title crown. The Tri Track Series does drop the lowest finish for each driver during the 2016 season, so any of these drivers could come home with the title when the 65 lap main event is complete.

Sunday’s 35 lap races will each pay $14,380, while the 25 lap B-Main will pay $8,000. The 65 lap main event will pay a purse of $19,800. Each and every one of the races will pay at least $300 to start, but if a driver can win both their 35 lapper and 65 lapper they will collect $8,000. The total payout including all the races on Sunday will be $57,400.

TTOMS wishes to thank all sponsors, teams, media, fans and competitors for their hard work and dedication to the racing for the 2016 season. At this point, the future of the series is unknown.

Though the Bemer’s Big Show weekend at Waterford is a two day event, the Tri Track Open Modified Series will only be a part of the Sunday portion. Twin 35 lap feature races worth $3,000 to win — top 11 advance. One B-Main 25 lap race, top four advance to 65 lap race. One 65 lap main event paying $5,000 to the winner.   Practice is from 12-1 p.m. Heat racing starts at 2 p.m.  Feature racing will follow

 Unfortunately, New Hampshire’s Lee USA Speedway feature event action fell victim to wet weather earlier this month and was postponed to tomorrow Sunday, October 23. A dozen feature events remain to be run to close out the 2016 season at the fast 3/8th’s mile speed plant. With result of New England race fans having to make a choice for their weekend racing

An open forum meeting is set for Thursday, November 10 at 7 p.m. at the American Legion Post #49 in Fair Haven, VT for all competitors on both race tracks that comprise the Devil’s Bowl Speedways.

Discussion open to all asphalt and dirt competitors

Devil’s Bowl Speedway will host an open forum discussion and meeting on the evening of Thursday, November 10 at 7:00 p.m.  Participants from all divisions and all race tracks on both asphalt and dirt are invited and encouraged to take part in the discussion.  The meeting will be held at American Legion Post #49 in Fair Haven, Vermont.

Devil’s Bowl Speedway recently completed its 50^th season of stock car racing, with full schedules of NASCAR Whelen All-American Series-sanctioned racing on both its half-mile Asphalt Track and its 3/10-mile Dirt Track.  Management is seeking input and opinions from all racers as preparations for the 2017 season begin.

Among the topics, the moderated meeting will discuss immediate and future plans for all divisions of racing on both surfaces, along with season schedules, event formats, race purses, promotions, and other items.

“We want to hear from our race teams,” Devil’s Bowl Speedway promoter Mike Bruno said.  “We are always working to improve our program, and that starts with hearing the opinions and concerns of our supporters – good, bad, or otherwise.  From Modifieds to Enduros, everyone is equal as far as we’re concerned and every voice matters to us.”

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 7:00 p.m. sharp and is expected to be completed by 9:00 p.m.  The American Legion Post #49 is located at 72 South Main Street (Route 22A) in Fair Haven, Vermont.

Devil’s Bowl Speedway is located on Route 22A in West Haven, Vt., four miles north of Exit 2 off of U.S.Route 4 and just 20 minutes from Rutland, Vt.
