second straight
Street Stock win at Oxford

Super Late Model early
birds as 43rd Annual
HP Hood Oxford 250 weekend gets
underway |
Oxford, Maine - For many, Super Late Model
practice for the 43rd Annual HP Hood Oxford 250 at
Oxford Plains Speedway may have been the highlight of
Friday's full, action-packed racing card to some, eight
divisions of competition were presented to race fans
after a full afternoon and more of on-track action
leading up to the Sunday, August 28 climax to the
biggest one-day event in Super Late Model racing.
Matt Williams of Brownfield prevailed in the
headline 30-lap main event for the Allen's Coffee
Flavored Brandy Street Stock division, posting his
second consecutive win in the top support class for the
weekly Super Late Model chart-toppers. Williams claimed
his second straight victory after getting a late start
at competing this year.
Williams was chased
under the checkered flag by Dan Brown of Peru, with
Norway's Jordan Russell following up two straight heat
race wins with a third-place main event performance.
Calvin Rose, Jr. of Turner kept his title hopes alive,
nipping crosstown rival and points leader Matt Dufault
for fourth.
Before the racing card got underway,
well over 40 Pro All Stars Series Super Late Models
cranked it up and former track champion TJ Brackett of
Buckfield was quickest by a surprising full tenth of a
second. Two-time OPS race winner Wayne Helliwell, Jr.
and Burnham's Justin Drake filled out the top trio.
Scarborough's Garrett Hall, twice a winner in PASS Super
Late Model action this season, and Hudson, New
Hampshire's Joey Polewarczyk, likewise a repeat PASS ace
were next quickest.
Oxford Plains Speedway
Legends Cars points leader Austin Teras of Windham
extended his points lead in the battle for the track
championship, claiming victory in the 25-lap main event
to cement his lead atop the track championship standings
for the 13-year-old.
Teras patiently awaited his
opportunity to pounce, then was followed to the
checkered flag by Colby Meserve of Buxton. Westbrook's
Jon Peters led for a spell before settling for a
third-place finish in front of Nolan Pope of
Harrisonville, Missouri, chasing National INEX Legends
Cars points. Ryan Doucette of Framingham, Massachusetts
rounded out the top five.
Waterford's Jamie
Heath, the championship points leader in the MacDonald
Motors Bandits class, once again outdistanced his chief
championship rival, Tyler Green, in the 20-lap finale
for the entry-level Budweiser Championship Series class.
Heath and Green were chased under the checkered flag by
Jacob Hall of Oxford, Dan Wade of New Gloucester and
Charlie Hall of Oxford. The three podium finishers also
ended up in those same positions as in their previous
race.
George Haskell of Casco made a late charge
up the outside groove to score in the 25-lap headliner
for the Wal-Mart Outlaw class, taking the lead away from
Windham's Parker Varney, who led most of trhe event's
distance. Gary Babineau of Hollis Center and Poland's
Ron Moon filled out the top-five rundown.
Matt
Mahar of Buckfield was dominant in a 20-lap race for the
Runnin' Rebel class. Cody Childs of Auburn was best of
the rest, with the final trophy claimed by Dustin Salley
of Poland. Shaun Hinkley od Oxford and Josh Straitonwere
top-five finishers.
Auburn's Mikel Martin
maintained the lead throughout the 20-lap Cruiser race
to claim victory. Runner-up honors were claimed in
impressive fashion by Michael McKinney of Berlin, New
Hampshire. Phil Knowlton of Oxford, Scott Jordan and
Josh Knoll of Mechanic Falls rounded out the top five.
Biddeford's Ajay Cates easily outran Matt Curtis to
the checkered flag in a 20-lap Sport Truck race. Mark
Grantham of Casco filled out the podium. Corey Williams
of Sumner and Windham's Kirk Irish rounded out the top
five.
Maggie Ferland of Poland was the dominant
force once again in the 20-lap race for NAPA OAS Ladies
division competitors. Dixfield's Shelby Shurtleff was
the best of the rest by a comfortable margin over a
torrid, race-long battle for third position, won by
Carleigh Vaughn of Naples over Lisbon racer Breeanna
Spaulding. Kathryn Childs of Auburn rounded out the top
five.
