Mr. Rooter 161 Up Next At The Speedbowl

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (June 17, 2013) – The NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour's return to Waterford (Conn.) Speedbowl was one of the feel-good moments of the 2012 season. The grandstands were packed, the parking lot overflowed and the track produced the typical competitive Modified action that it has come to be known for through the years. This week they'll get to do it all over again with the second running of the Mr. Rooter 161 on Saturday, June 22.

After a five-year absence from the .375-mile oval, the Whelen Modified Tour's return was the most-anticipated event of the 2012 season. The history at Waterford dated back to the beginning of the tour in 1985, and the winners list at the track includes names like champions Ted Christopher, Donny Lia, Mike McLaughlin, Jerry Marquis, Jimmy Spencer and Todd Szegedy. Doug Coby then added his name to both lists as he took the checkered flag in the Whelen Modified Tour's return to Waterford en route to the season title.more info / Statistical Advance
