Edmund Charette Jr.

#31 Sportsman

Edmund Charette Jr. races once a week at Waterford Speedbowl in the #31 Sportsman Division. Says Edmund “ I spend way too many hours on the car, off the track, but wouldn’t have it any other way.” He does what it takes to race. This Plainfield, Connecticut resident was a race fan for many years before turning into a racecar driver. He simply loves the SPORT.

A seven-year veteran of the racing industry, Edmund has raced at Monadnock, Claremont, Stafford and Riverside Park Speedways as well as “The Bowl”. He has been in Pro Stock, Strictly Stock/Sportsman and the Dare Division, winning “Rookie of the Year at Riverside Park and the Snap-On Championship.

His wife is his main source of support along with other drivers as crew. Racing is always a challenge for Edmund especially when he was in a “Go For The Win” race for double points and he checkered flagged it.
