BECHTELSVILLE, PA September 18, 2020 . . . Stewart Friesen had a tough night at Bristol Motor Speedway on Thursday. He finished 32nd in the NASCAR Truck Series race due to a variety of mechanical issues. He will be looking to change his luck on Saturday night when he goes up against many of the best in dirt track Modified racing taking part in the 50th Annual Freedom 76. The Classic rewards the winner with $35,550 plus lap money. Friesen, a big winner in Modifieds this season, will be looking to take home that pot of gold.
