New England Truck Series to Visit Lee USA, NH Oct.11,2014

 This Saturday the New England Truck Series heads to Lee USA, Speedway, NH for their only visit in the 2014 racing season. The series last event was rained out at Monadnock Speedway in NH. This shortens the season to two races to go. Lee and Thompson.
  Driver Cory Coates holds a 9 point lead in the series standings over 5 time champion Andy Lindeman. Coates and Lindeman both have two victories in 2014. They have distanced themselves from the field. Third place Bert Ouellette is 23 points back, with Glenn Noll 28 points back. D.J. McGouran rounds out the top 5 with 9 of the 11 scheduled races in the record books for 2014.

    Shirley Lindeman Memorial Race,

Three years ago, the New England Truck Series lost its biggest fan with the passing of Mrs.Shirley Lindeman.

Lindeman would travel NETS events to cheer on her son, but also to cheer on all the competition. Lindeman always made a point to go see each driver to wish them luck before the feature events and then go see them after the races were done to see how they did and comfort them if they had a bad night. It was a small gesture of kindness on her part, it meant more to the other drivers then she ever realized.
  The checkered flags,trophies, and seasons go by, but Lindeman's absence is still felt at each NETS event. Saturday we will Honor her Memory at the Lee USA Speedway with the third annual Shirley Lindeman Memorial Race.
  Andy Lindeman, Harold & Carol Burdick, and the entire Cindy Burdick Motorsports #151 Team are proud sponsors of the event.
