Last week at Monadnock Speedway, Andy Seuss and his #70 Rockingham Boat/Manchester Urology Associates Modified team were hot. They won the race on the tough quarter-mile track. This week, the car was hot again – and it wasn’t a good thing. Overheating problems at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway forced Seuss to lose laps in the pit area and also to make several unscheduled stops. He ended up finishing 17th.
Now it’s up to the #70 team to find out why their car was
boiling hot.
“We’re going to have to diagnose what went wrong this week,”
said Seuss. “Hopefully, it’s something minor. The light came
on during the race, but the gauge showed that it was cool.
We popped the cap and it was hot in their. We filled it back
up, but we don’t know if some air got in there and made it
worse or what. It’s unfortunate because the car was fairly
decent. It was getting better and the car was fast, but then
it started overheating.”
TVMRS rules dictate that the tour’s most recent winner starts
shotgun on the field for the next race, so Seuss started in the
back and Beech Ridge and was making steady progress through traffic before the overheating problems surfaced just before the one-third mark of the race.
Seuss will return to action Saturday, August 12th as the True Value Mods head to Star Speedway (NH) for a Saturday night show.
