Solid 9th Place Run For Team as Christopher Adds to Win Total at Stafford
Stafford Springs, CT - Stafford Motor Speedway returned to racing action on Friday, August 1st with a Friday Night NASCAR Whelen All-American Series feature event with five divisions of racing. Ted Christopher nailed down his third win of the season in the 40-lap SK Modified® feature event and career win number 101 at Stafford, Ryan Posocco picked up his fifth feature win of 2008 in the 30-lap Late Model feature, Earl Pelletier was a first time career winner in the 20-lap SK Light Modified feature, Rob Dow scored his second feature win of 2008 in the 20-lap Limited Late Model feature, and Kyle Casagrande came up a first time career winner in the 15-lap DARE Stock feature event.

In the 40-lap SK Modified® feature event, Jimmy Blewett took the early race lead from the pole position and began to pull away from the field. Blewett's lead was erased by caution on lap-19. Blewett continued to lead on the restart with Keith Rocco, Woody Pitkat, Doug Coby, and Ted Christoper behind him. Christopher was the car on the charge, methodically picking his way through traffic to move into second place behind Blewett on lap-31. Christopher stalked Blewett until lap-35 when he made his move in turns 3+4 to come out with the lead. Blewett gave chase to Christopher over the final laps but was not able to get close enough to make a move as Christopher took his third feature win of the season. Rounding out the top-5 behind Christopher and Blewett was Rocco, Jeff Malave, and Frank Ruocco.
