(Barre, VT) – ACT Late Model Standout Joey Polewarczyk Jr of Hudson, NH looks for redemption in a race that he led the most laps in, last season.
What a difference a year makes in the world of racing. At this point last year, #97NH Joey Polewarczyk was riding a winning streak; seldom seen on a Late Model Tour of this caliber. The young driver ended up winning the last 5 out of 10 ACT Point and non-point races, including the Vermont Milk Bowl at Thunder Road Speedbowl. This year the Polewarczyk Race Team are looking for their first win, since a February trip to New Smyrna Speedway in Florida saw Joey capture the Inaugural Goodyear Speedweeks Cup. (more…)
