Maresca Claims $10,000 Winning the 4th Annual Ted Siri Memorial at Outlaw Speedway

Column By: KENNY SHUPP JR/ OUTLAW SPEEDWAY – BOSTON, MA –  Mike Maresca has come to play this season at Outlaw Speedway picking
up his third feature win claiming the 4 th Annual Ted Siri Memorial and the massive
$10,000 pay day.
The Potsdam transplant now residing in Central New York, Maresca’s win was his third
of the 2025 campaign and with it strengthens his hold on the Friendly Chrysler, Dodge,
Jeep, Ram Modified point battle with just one regular point show remaining plus the
season ending Double Point Finale on August 29, 2025.
Should Maresca hold on the 2025 Modified Track Championship is worth another $10
grand.
Track owner, Bossman Tyler Siri along with Billy Paine brought the twenty-four-car field
to the opening green with Siri immediately flexing his muscle and jumping into the early
lead which he would hold onto through the first caution flag on lap eight.
On the restart Siri once again motored away from the rest of the field until there was
contact between his machine and that of Alex Payne on lap fourteen sending Payne pit
side and Siri dropping to third.
The third yellow waved one lap later as the ambulance was summoned to the
grandstand area and after a lengthy delay racing resumed with Tommy Collins in control
with Mike Maresca moving into second after staring twelfth and Siri third.
Another caution flag would once again slow the pace and bunch the field back up this
time for the slowed machine of Tyler Siri.
With Collins still at the point and looking for his first Outlaw Speedway Feature win of
2025, Maresca was turning up the heat and took control on lap twenty and from there
never looked back leading the remaining ten circuits and going on to the huge $10,000
payday.
Collins was able to hold on for second, with Brady Fultz having perhaps his best finish
of the season completing the podium.
For the Fultz family operation it was a busy night as he finished second to Siri in the
opening Modified qualifying heat race. The team then found a cracked weld in a mounting bracket, loaded the car into the trailer and headed to their shop in Dundee a
short drive away, made the necessary repair and returned back to the track in time to
line up third on the opening grid and after spirited battles with Collins, Maresca, Siri and
Bobby Varin was able to hold on for third.
Fourth place was claimed by current runner-up in the Modified point standings, Bobby
Varin of Johnstown, NY who started alongside Maresca in the sixth row.
Jim Larock has suffered through a terrible 2025 season at Outlaw with a multitude of
bad finishes, but on this night LaRock of Seneca Falls was on his game lining up
twenty-second on the grid, used the five caution flags to his advantage plus some nifty
moves coming through traffic to round out the top five finishers.
Earlier evening qualifying heat race winners for the Ted Siri Memorial went to Tyler Siri,
Brian Swarthout and Bobby Varin.
A multitude of special awards, lap money, quick time and other contingency prizes went
out to several different drivers in the Modified feature.

The Mike Emhoff led CRSA 305 Sprints made their second appearance at Outlaw this season, bringing along a full field of twenty-five competitors.
In their twenty-five lap A Main, former CRSA Series Champion, Jordan Hutton was able to hold off a hard charging Billy VanInwegan who pilots the potent Mike VanDusen
owned machine as Dillon Paddock filled out the podium finishers. Dalton Herrick and current point leader and former Outlaw Speedway Hoosier Tire
Crate Sportsman Track Champion, Zach Sobotka completed the top five. For a more concise look at the entire night of action for the CRSA 305 Sprints, Series

Public Relations Director, Marty Czekala has prepared a full report which can be found

The CRSA Sprints will make one final appearance at Outlaw Speedway for two nights of competition as part of the Annual Hoag Memorial on October 17 and 18.
Kenny Peoples Jr. of Addison along with Daryl Krebs of Union Springs would bring the twenty-three car Knapp and Schlappi Lumber 602 Crate Sportsman field to green for
their twenty-five-lap feature. The big question entering the night was could any driver repeat as a feature winner in
this super competitive division. Thus far in 2025 Donnie Lawson has been the only driver to repeat with eight additional
different drivers visiting victory lane entering the night.
