Valenti Modified Racing Series

Posted by Wayne G. Barber
   With the 2017 race season coming into full swing, the Valenti Modified Racing Series will kick off their race schedule on Friday May 19th at the Stafford Motor Speedway (Stafford Springs,Ct).
   This will be the first of two visits to the famed Connecticut oval

   M.R.S. president and founder Jack Bateman has given a number of modified owners and drivers a venue to showcase their talent where as they wouldn't have the opportunity otherwise. This is something Bateman and his team have been doing for the last fifteen years and plan to continue to do so .

   The opening event for the M.R.S. will be the fourth annual VMRS 80, along with the SK modifieds, late models, SK lights, limited late models and DARE stocks.

   Their second Stafford appearance will take place on Friday, Sept. 1st with the 8th annual VMRS 80 plus fireworks, both on and off the track.

   This years roster is again jam packed with seasoned veterans like Charlie Pasteryak, Donnie Lashua, Dave Ethridge, Dan Meservey Jr. and Matt Mead just to name a few, doing battle with young guns like Sammy Rameau, Dylan Rock and Andrew Molleur. When the MRS roars into Stafford you can never count out the local superstars like Woody Pitkat, Ted Christopher and Keith Rocco.

  It looks like the 2017 MRS season is shaping up to be a banner year.
