Seeger continued in NASCAR Late Model stock car competition while also advancing to Modified and NASCAR Daytona Dash series racing. Racing for national sponsor Pontiac Motorsports, Seeger won eight times in 14 races while satisfying 25 regional sponsors.
He won six times in 24 races in NASCAR Late Model stock cars while also setting a track record in the early 1990’s.
