MOORESVILLE, N.C. — Six-time NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour champion Doug Coby is making a comeback Saturday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Coby will pilot the historic No. 7NY for Tommy Baldwin Racing in the Mohegan Sun 100, the 13th race of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour season.
The event is scheduled for 9:15 a.m, set to run before the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series playoff race on Saturday afternoon and the NASCAR Cup Series playoff showdown on Sunday.
It will be Coby‘s first start of the season on the Whelen Modified Tour. The Tommy Baldwin Racing team competed in 11 of the first 12 events of the 2025 season with Luke Baldwin behind the wheel, scoring seven top-10 finishes. Baldwin is committed to racing for the championship on the SMART Modified Tour with Sadler-Stanley Racing and will be racing at Franklin County on Saturday.
Coby, a six-time Whelen Modified Tour champion, is no stranger to winning at New Hampshire. He has four previous wins at the ‘Magic Mile‘, just some of his 35 career victories on the Whelen Modified Tour.
“I‘m excited to do it at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and it‘s actually my 40th year racing and I want to keep the streak going, it‘s a cool milestone,” Coby said. “It‘s been 40 years in a row of racing something competitive… definitely fired up to be racing with Tommy and his team.”
“We‘re getting the band back together with Doug in the 7NY,” Tommy Baldwin Jr. said. “When we have raced with Doug in the past, we‘ve always had a good opportunity to get to Victory Lane. There is no one better for us to have behind the wheel with Luke committed elsewhere. With his experience at New Hampshire and our newer PSR Chassis that has only one race on it, we are confident.”
The schedule for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Mohegan Sun 100 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway includes practice and qualifying on Friday. The race will take the green flag at 9:15 a.m. on Saturday morning, live on FloRacing. Tickets to see the race in person on NASCAR playoff weekend are available online at NHMS.com.
