Barre, VT — The third season for the Brookside Equipment Sales Southern New England Triple Crown is set to be one of the most exciting in series’ history. Each earning one win, Tom Carey III and ACT Rookie of the Year Kasey Beattie lead the standings with Carey’s dominant win at the Thompson Sunoco World Series giving him a twenty-point buffer over the young star. One thing is sure to separate the men from the boys, the tricky Seekonk 1/3-mile with changing autumn weather set to put crew chiefs on notice!
While Beattie had the competition whipped to take his first career American-Canadian Tour win with the 49th Spring Green held at Seekonk back in June, this won’t be the same battle on the first weekend of November. Beattie was able to claim the 75-point win along with 10 bonus points for leading a lap and leading the most laps combined with three points earned in his heat with Tom Carey III matching the feat at Thompson just weeks ago. Carey and the Brookside Equipment team are sure to pull all the stops to get the #5MA in victory lane and claim the $2,000 Triple Crown championship bonus!
If history has taught us anything, this is far from a two-horse race. A betting man should keep an eye on two time and defending Brookside Equipment Sales Southern New England Triple Crown champion DJ Shaw! Shaw currently sits fifth on the Brookside standings and would certainly enjoy closing out the season with a win for his A.H. Fence Company / Bar Harbor Bank & Trust team!
Derek Gluchacki and Gabe Brown round out the top five runners currently on the Brookside Triple Crown tally. The young, red-blooded rivals have had their fair share of door-slamming at the Cement Palace in the past, with each able to podium in ACT competition at the Bay State oval. Both are looking for the finale win as Gluchacki looks to secure the Kulwicki Driver Development Program (KDDP) championship and Brown looks to finalize his American-Canadian Tour championship run!
The American-Canadian Tour finishes off the 2024 season at the Seekonk Speedway in Seekonk, Massachusetts on Saturday, November 2 with the Haunted Hundred. Both the American-Canadian Tour champion and the Brookside Equipment Sales Triple Crown champion will be crowned at the Concrete Palace alongside the Monaco Modified Tri-Track Series and the Street Stock Open to round out the 2024 season! There will be an option Practice Day for teams on Friday, November 1 while Post Time for Sunday’s three-division showdown is set for 1:00pm.
Brookside Equipment Sales in Phillipston, Massachusetts supports the Brookside Equipment Southern New England Triple Crown with a $4,000 point fund up for grabs to the top three finishers in Triple Crown competition. Falconi Energy of Southborough, Massachusetts also supports the Brookside Triple Crown with a $100 cash bonus available to the fifth-place finisher in each of the three events plus $500 to the fifth-place driver in the overall point standings at the end of the season.
