TeamSLR Teen Rookie Tristan McKee Returns to Scene of First TA2 Series Start, Joined by Returning Carson Brown, Newcomers Lanie Buice and Naz Olkhovsky
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. (Sept. 15, 2025) – Fifteen-year-old Tristan McKee, the Cube 3 Architecture TA2 Series points leader through nine of 12 rounds this season, returns to the scene of his series debut last October when he and a trio of TeamSLR and M1 Racecars teammates hit the track for Saturday’s VIR SpeedTour at Virginia International Raceway in Alton.
One thing is becoming abundantly clear with the budding driving career of 18-year-old Chase Grennan of Glen Cove, the bright spotlight of signature NASCAR Modified events at Riverhead Raceway doesn’t intimidate him at all. In fact, he thrives on them and has been dubbed with the moniker “Big Time”. Saturday, the college freshman set fast time and led all but the first lap of the Cecil Palm Tree 66 for his third win of the season, all Crown Jewel Series events for the Ted Christopher Cup. Add his upset win in the 2024 Islip 300 and the only left for “Big Time” Chase to accomplish is to win a 50-lap weekly event.
The annual Cecil Palm Tree 66 NASCAR Modified event is presented to honor memory of the late Eddie Partridge, a lover of the open wheel machines and the excitement they provided wherever they raced, especially Riverhead Raceway which he, his wife Connie and nephew Tom Gatz purchased in 2015. Saturday when the green flag waves over the field to begin the Cecil Palm Tree 66, the usual open wheel excitement will be ramped up with the 2025 NASCAR Modified and Crown Jewel Series Ted Christopher Cup championships hanging in the balance, just the way Eddie Partridge the Modified fan would have loved.
DANVILLE, Virginia (September 9, 2025) – The first Historic Sportscar Racing (HSR) full-weekend visit to VIRginia International Raceway in seven years produced an endless roll call of race winners and podium finishers in a packed weekend of competition at the HSR VIR Historics on the 3.29-mile Southern Virginia road course, September 4 – 7.
Forecasts for a wet weekend on Long Island became reality Saturday forcing NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour officials and Riverhead Raceway management to rest the Eddie Partridge 256 WMT program to Saturday October 4th. With the forecasted rain predicted to hit right in the middle of WMT practice and or qualifying Saturday and lasting into Sunday the decision to move the event back a month was made early Saturday morning.
MADISON, Ill. — Denny Hamlin spent much of his post-race press conference relishing the freedom he earned with Sunday’s victory in the Enjoy Illinois 300 at World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway.
With his ticket already punched for the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs’ Round of 12, Hamlin can race with abandon next Saturday night at Bristol Motor Speedway, while others are scrambling to keep their title hopes alive.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (September 6, 2025) – NASCAR and Riverhead Raceway officials have postponed this weekend’s NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour event due to a forecast of continued rain for this weekend. The race has been rescheduled for Saturday, October 4. The start time will be announced at a later date.
