Rowan Pennink will be competing for as many as four different race teams in 2016, in his quest for several different modified championships this upcoming season.
At the end of the 2015 racing season Pennink was our guest on the Race Chatter and said that he was working on a few possible situations and have come full circle to fill his dates.

The Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania driver will kick of the season in two new rides for 2016. Rowan will be taking over the driving duties for one the most legendary teams in modified racing, the Boehler Racing Enterprises-Ole’ Blue #3. Rowan will compete full-time in 2016 on NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour beginning at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park at the annual Icebreaker event in April. Also occurring at Thompson Speedway, Rowan will return to full-time Sunoco Modified competition in the seat of another car rich in tradition, the Dickie Ceravolo owned #16 machine for 2016.
Pennink claimed the 2013 Valenti Modified Championship and in 2015 the Stafford Speedway SK Modified Championship to his fireplace mantle and said that he still has more room for the 2016 racing season. Now at the Thompson World Series in October 2016 he may have a chance at 3 more plus the Stafford repeat.
Race fans do we have a chance at a National Championship in store for Pennink ?

In addition to his new NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour and Thompson Sunoco Modified teams, Pennink will return to two of his most familiar rides in 2016 as well. Rowan and his #99 Hitchcock Pool Water team will look to defend their 2015 Stafford Speedway SK Modified championship by returning full-time to Stafford in 2016. Rowan will also return to Gary Casella’s, Roscoe Racing #25, for a full slate of Tri-Track Open Modified Series events, as well as a limited number of Valenti Modified Racing Series dates with the team that earned the 2013 series championship.
The potential exists to add additional events, on open weekends, at the New-London Waterford Speedbowl in SK Modified competition. Those events might be run in either in the Ceravolo #16 or in a Pennink Motorsports entry that will be maintained at the Pennink family’s race shop.
One thing that is a guarantee, if there is a modified race held in the northeast in 2016, you can bet that you’ll see Rowan Pennink behind the wheel.
