SEEKONK, Mass. — New to the Helger’s Pure Stocks, Brent Robidoux is looking like a veteran. The driver of the No. 25 jumped out front from his fifth-place starting position and didn’t look back in Friday’s 25-lap feature, rocketing to Victory Lane for the second time in his young career. As a graduate of the Seekonk Youth Racing Association, Robidoux is quickly proving he is going to be a threat right up through the ranks. Mike Henriques charged up to the second spot at the end of the feature, posting yet another podium for his 2023 season, a strong run. Jared Cordeira, also a common contender on the podium this season, finished in third. Bobby Bettencourt III led laps early and finished fourth, with Danny Massa rounding out the top-five. Ethan Souza, Matt Talbot, Greg Perry, Timmy Ouellette and Josh O’Hara finished the top-10. The Helger’s Pure Stocks will be back on the track on Friday, July 19, for another main event.

SEEKONK, Mass. — Brody Wakefield had trouble after qualifying on Friday night at Seekonk Speedway, but the team didn’t quit. In the first round of the Everett’s Auto Parts Triple Crown Series, Wakefield had to start last in the Seekonk Grand Prix Bandolero Outlaws, driving a completely different car compared to practice and qualifying.

Parker Davis crossed the line in second, with Bryson Robidoux coming away with another strong run on his season, finishing in third. A crash on the final lap going through turns three and four collected multiple top contenders in a race that was rather clean throughout the pack.
