Cole Carter Enters NEMA Finale at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park World Series of Racing
Bridgewater, MA
Cole Carter, a USAC open-cockpit mainstay and a member of one of America’s premier racing families, will be in the Northeastern Midget Association field at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park for the World Series of Racing on Saturday, October 17th.
The son of the legendary “Pancho” Carter, Cole will be a teammate of former series champion Randy Cabral of Kingston and Todd Bertrand of Danielson, CT in Bertrand Motorsports entries. He’ll steer the Boston Louie Memorial winning #39 typically driven by Bertrand and Bertrand will run the #74 driven this season by reining NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour champion, Doug Coby and Joey Payne. Coby and Payne both captured 2015 wins in the #74.
Carter will join a strong field led by Cabral, the all-time NEMA winner at Thompson, 2013 Champion and points leader John Zych, Avery Stoehr of Lakeville, Seth Carlson, Jim & Alan Chambers, Bethany Stoehr and Paul Scally of Raynham.
Among current competitors, Russ Stoehr of Bridgewater and Zych are the other previous Thompson winners scheduled to be on hand in the field.
Cole Carter’s racing genes include both grandfathers – Duane Carter and Carl Forberg – and an uncle – the late Dana Carter – as well as his dad Poncho who, in addition to many Midget and Sprint successes, had 17 Indianapolis 500 starts, including a pole run in 1985. Pancho was also the USAC National Sprint Car champion in 1974 and 1976.

Cole has been running USAC periodically over the last fifteen years, climbing to as high as fourth in the 2005 USAC standings. He has also driven Sprints, Silver Crown and Infiniti Pro Series cars. His last starts for Bertrand Motorsports resulted in a runner up effort to Cabral in 2010 at the World Series and a duplicate of that run, finishing second to Cabral in the 2014 World Series at TSMP.
