Luncheon that will take place at a new venue, the Senix Creek
Inn of
Center Moriches. Justin Bonsignore of Holtsville will lead the

The Senix Creek Inn is located on Senix Avenue just off the

sponsored
Eddie Brunnhoelzl III in the NASCAR Modified ranks at Riverhead
Raceway. "
I can't thank Charlie and Judy and all the Senix Creek Inn
family for
opening up their fine restaurant to us for the Champions
Luncheon" Bob
Finan noted. Admission will again be free to the luncheon and
feature a
casual atmosphere to which Finan added, "Senix Creek Inn
features a very
cozy setting and it's a tad smaller than in the past but it's
going to all
work out great thanks to Charles and Judy".
Justin Bonsignore earned his first career NASCAR Modified title
at
Riverhead Raceway the hard way by commuting to and from the Long
Island
quarter mile oval while chasing the NASCAR Whelen Modified
title, some
weekends found the young talent having to be in two places at
once,
literally! Justin's car owner Ken Massa will also be presented
with his
championship hardware.

Bologna of
Melville (Late Models), Arne Pedersen of Mastic Beach (Figure
Eights),

champions
at Riverhead, six enjoy their first career title, while Turbush
and
Walkowiak each have earned multiple championships in their
division.
The top five in each division will also each earn a trophy and
