Thompson, CT — Following two qualifying heat races, Jon McKennedy and Matt Swanson faced-off at the head of the Outlaw Open Modifieds in the Twisted Tea Midsummer 50. Ronnie Williams motored under Swanson to take second on lap ten but otherwise the top five remained in line to conserve to the end. The conservation came into play with the lap 39 spin and flat left-front tire for Glen Steger in turn four, with Williams and Chris Pasteryak electing to jump pitside to swap tires, front to rear on the right side.

Meghan Fuller Eyes First Win of 2025 in July 11 SK Light Double Down at Stafford

(Stafford Springs, CT)—Meghan Fuller has been one of the top SK Light competitors at Stafford Speedway this season with 4 top-5 and 5 top-10 finishes in 6 starts thus far.

She feels like her first win of the 2025 season is close at hand and that first win could come this Friday night, July 11th in the extra distance 40-lap Monaco Ford SK Light Double Down.
