Dave Steele
 
On March 25, 2017, the most accomplished pavement open wheel racer in America , Dave Steele of Tampa Fl. passed away at Desoto Speedway in Bradenton while attempting to win his 100th sprint car race in the state of Florida.

When the Nema midgets roll into Seekonk Speedway on June 26 2019, for the 23rd Annual Boston Louie Memorial, NEMA will honor Steele by extending the customary 29 lap race to 33 laps (Steele's number) for the Nema Lites portion of the event.

As a car owner, I had the opportunity to compete against Dave in the Silver Crown series for so many years. I also had the unique chance to race with him on one occasion at the Stafford Motor Speedway in 2006 when he drove our car.

On that day, I realized just how special and talented he was. In our forty plus years of racing in the silver crown series , there has never been one individual with such a combination of driving skills, mechanical ability, chassis knowledge and an uncanny eye for preparing the sharpest looking , state of the art, open wheel race cars.

Thank You
Bobby Seymour

"The Louie" - A Showcase of Talent
A brief overview of Boston Louie history follows.

1997 – The championship-bound Russ Stoehr and Bruce Beane won the first Boston Louie, besting legend Nokie Fornoro, the latter driving for the Scally family.

1998 – Another championship bound team, Drew Fornoro and Gene Angelillo prevailed besting Bobby Seymour. It was the first of three Louie victories for Angelillo.

1999 – A perfect night for Louie Seymour’s boys, Bobby, in the Scrivani #9, besting Mike in the Tapply #8.

2000 – Driving a car older than he was – the family #35 – Randy Cabral collected his first-ever NEMA checkered (he now has 33) with a convincing win over Nokie Fornoro.

2001 – Driving Babe Shaw’s 1s, Jeff Horn started eighth, had the lead by lap two and beat Russ Stoehr by a comfortable margin.

2002 – Moving to Waterford Speedbowl, 16-year old Bobby Santos III, driving a Seymour/Scrivani maintained car, scored his first “big” win. The winning pass – going under Tim Bertrand in turns three and four – came with 13 laps remaining.

2003 – Win number one for Payne and two for Angelillo came after Randy Cabral’s car was judged “too wide.”

2004 – Ben Seitz (Valeri 17) chased down Payne, took the lead with nine left and then survived a late restart challenge. Seitz and Valeri went on to the championships.

2005 – Back at Seekonk, Joey Payne took advantage of a lap 23 caution to pass Jeff Horn and become the first two-time winner. It was the third Louie for Angelillo.

2006 – It was Nokie’s turn and he wired it in the Jarret #4, finishing far ahead of Payne.

2007 – Seitz joined the two win club. Although he led every lap, Seitz had to beat back challenges from both Nokie Fornoro and Payne in the closing laps.

2008 – The Cabral/Bertrand team, with a motor borrowed from the Santos team, started eighth, had the lead by lap three and won by less than a car length over a very young Jeff Abold in a Seymour car. Bobby Santos III was third. Shaun Gosselin was the first “Louie” Lites winner.

2009 – The first of three straight wins for the Abold/Seymour team. After posting a blistering 10.859 in time trials, Abold came from the 16th starting spot and passed Cole Carter, driving for Bertrand, on lap 18. Anthony Marvuglio, in the Cabral 35, scored an emotional Lites win.

2010 – Starting 14th, Abold needed only 10 laps to grab the lead and then beat back a late challenge from Cabral. It was a sweep for the Seymours, Anthony Nocella winning the Lites event.

2011 – Setting fast time for the third straight year, Abold needed 19 laps to grab the lead and again beat back Cabral threats in the closing laps. David Moniz ruled the Lites feature.

2012 – Race cancelled due to weather

2013 – Doug Coby, in only his third Northeastern Midget Association ride, added the Boston Louie Memorial. The National NASCAR Whelen Modified champion got by Bertrand Racing teammate Randy Cabral with four laps remaining in the 29-lap event.

2014 - Randy Cabral over Todd Bertrand in the Midgets. PJ Stergios takes his second win in the Lites. Speed Sport Magazine covers the show for MAV TV.

2015 - Todd Bertrand beats teammate Randy Cabral. In the Lites, PJ Stergios scores his third in a row Boston Louie win.

2016 - Doug Coby invades & captures Midget race; Jim Chambers conquers Lites.

2017 - John Zych takes his first Boston Louie win; Dylan Duhaime and Jim Chambers stage a last lap LITES battle.

2018 - Randy Cabral becomes the first four-time winner of the Boston Louie; Dan Cugini takes the Lites race.

2019 - Avery Stoehr scored the NEMA Midgets victory for the "biggest win of my career." Young Ryan Locke took the LITES win.

2021 - Paul Scally celebrated his NEMA Midgets victory as the "my biggest win." Jake Trainor took the Boston Louie #29 to the checkers in the 50 lap LITES feature.

2022 - PJ Stergios scored the LITES win the Seymour #4. Avery Stoehr was the NEMA Midgets winner in the Bertrand #39.
