TJ Brackett Scores Super Late Model Win,
Father Tim Brackett Earns Second Straight OPS Track
Championship |
Oxford, Maine - TJ Brackett of Buckfield
prevailed over his best friend, Shawn Knight of South
Paris, in a thrilling Budweiser Championship Series
Super Late Model main event Saturday night at Oxford
Plains Speedway.
While the race winner made his
division-leading third trip to victory lane this season
it was his father, Tim Brackett, scoring the big prize,
claiming his second straight track championship. It was
the fourth Oxford Plains Speedway championship for the
Oxford native currently residing in Buckfield.
TJ
Brackett started 11th and wasted little time getting to
the front of the field to set up an extended battle with
Knight throughout the 50-lap race. Knight earned
runner-up honors, with Jay's Dave Farrington, Jr. third
under the checkered flag after leading the opening laps
in the event.
Scott Moore of Anson raced hard
with the frontrunners all race long and ended up in
fourth position. Scarborough's Garrett Hall rounded out
the top five, followed by Reid Lanpher of Manchester,
Shawn Martin of Turner, Scott Robbins of Dixfield,
Dennis Spencer, Jr. of Oxford and the new and old
champion Brackett in tenth.
Skip Tripp of South
Paris battled hard to get the Rachel Dubois 21 into
victory lane, leading early and leading late in a 30-lap
test of supremacy in the Allen's Coffee Flavored Street
Stock class. Tripp, one-handing his ride with a cast
rendering his right hand all but useless, held off
Oxford's Gerard Cote in the closing laps.
Bryce
Mains of Naples raced hard alongside the winner for much
of the race before crossing the finish line in second
position. A third-place finish was more than enough to
clinch the Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stock
title for Turner's Calvin Rose, Jr. David Whittier of
West Poland was fourth, followed by Norway's Jordan
Russell.
Jamie Heath of Waterford wrapped up an
impressive championship season in the MacDonald Motors
of Bridgton Bandits class, outrunning all his foes with
seeming ease in the 20-lap finale for the entry-level
Budweiser Championship Series event.
Gerard Cote
of Oxford was the best of the rest in the Bandits race,
chased by championship runner=up Tyler Green of Turner.
Oxford's Charlie Hall and Josh Knoll of Mechanic Falls
rounded out the top five.
Maine stock car racing
Hall of Famer Jon Lizotte, 67, announced another
retirement in victory lane after yet another impressive
triumph in a 15-lap race to wrap up his second straight
championship in what's in all reality a third childhood
in Ariens/Gravely/Dave's Small Engines Figure 8
competition.
Lizotte's final win came in dramatic
fashion, stealing victory on the final lap away from
Josh Varney from Leeds. Varney's runner-up finish was a
career-best, and Lizotte's last-lap score did not ruin
his night. Greg Durgin of South Paris claimed the
third-place trophy.
Ronnie Moon of North
Yarmouth, a proven winner in the top class at the
speedway decades ago, returned to victory lane for the
first time in recent memory, acing the 25-lap finale for
the NAPA OAS WalMart Outlaws.
George Haskell of
Casco was the best of the rest in both the race and the
battle for the track championship. Andy King of Portland
led a lot of laps en route to a third-place finish in
front of Guy Childs from Leeds.
Gary Babineau of
Hollis Center rounded out the top five and wrapped up
the 2016 NAPA Acceleration Series WalMart Outlaw
Championship. Babineau and his car, numbered 2, were
clearly the car to beat every time the class was in
competition at the historic Route 26 oval track.
Brandon Varney of Auburn turned back all challengers to
ace the 20-lap main event for the NAPA OAS Runnin' Rebel
division. Cody Childs of Auburn and Buckfield's Matthew
Mahar claimed the final trophies in an ultra-competitive
race.
Dustin Salley of Poland was in fourth
position when the checkered flag waved, and he wrapped
up the 2016+ NAPA OAS Runnin' Rebebl division crown with
that performance. Cam Childs of Leeds rounded out the
top five.
Adrianna 'Addie' McDaniel, 16, of
Bridgton, showed both boys and men the quick way around
the historic Oxford Plains Speedway oval with an
impressive romp into victory lane following a dominant
performance in a 20-lap main event for the Cruiser
class.
Michael McKinney of Berlin, New Hampshire
was closing in on Addie when the checkered flag waved,
but his runner-up finish was more than enough to nail
down the NAPA OAS Cruiser Championship. John Childs of
Leeds claimed the final trophy, with the top five filled
out by Paul Rowe of South Paris and Oxford's Phil
Knowlton.
Ryan Farrar of Livermore Falls bounced
back from recent misfortunes to win the 20-lap Sport
Truck race. Corey Williams of Sumner claimed runner-up
honors in the unusually-competitive pack of
frontrunners.
Mark Grantham of Casco, Ryan
Hewins of Leeds and Sanford's Kristopher Knox rounded
out the top five. The 2016 NAPA Acceleration Series
Sport Truck Champion is Ajay Cates of Biddeford, the
sixth-place finisher.
Kathryn Childs of Leeds
prevailed in the 20-lap finale for Allen's Coffee
Flavored Brandy Ladies division competitors. Childs
inherited the race lead when Maggie Ferland's car would
not fire following a red flag period, forcing a stop in
the pit area with only a couple of laps remaining.
Childs and Breanna Spaulding of Lisbon outran
Ferland to the checkered flag. Green's Susan Veinott and
Chloe Kiley of South Paris rounded out the top five.
Ferland earned the 2016 Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy
Ladies division championship by a comfortable margin.
The next event on the Oxford Plains Speedway
schedule is PASS Championship Day on Saturday, October
15 at 2:00 p.m. Pro All Stars Series Super Late Model
