JOHNNY CLARK PREVAILS
ON PEPSI NIGHT AT OPS |
Oxford, Maine -- Johnny Clark of Farmingdale
raced to his first Super Late Model victory of the
season, topping the Budweiser Championship Series racing
card on Pepsi Night at Oxford Plains Speedway Saturday
night.
Clark raced from deep on the starting grid
into contention in a non-stop, green-to-checkered flag
50-lapper, took the lead away from Super Late Model
rookie Spencer Morse of Waterford.
Morse, who
set the pace of the race for more than 30 laps, lost
runner-up honors at the last second to Oxford's Dennis
Spencer, Jr., by inches at the stripe. Still, it's a
career-best run in the top class for the young,
third-generation racer.
Clark, Spencer and Morse
were chased under the checkered flag by Scott Robbins of
Dixfield and Buckfield's Kyle Treadwell. Jeff Taylor of
Farmington and Alan Wilson of Hebron won the Super Late
Model heat races.
Evan Armington of Lovell outran
Newburgh's Scott Alexander to the checkered flag in the
25-lap main event for OPS Mods. Points leader Ryan
Robbins of Dixfield claimed third-place hardware. Randy
Sanborn of West Baldwin was the fourth-place finisher,
just ahead of Turner's Nik Coates. Armington also won
the heat race.
David Whittier of West Poland led
wire-to-wire, winning an Oxford Plains Speedway feature
race for the first time ever in the Allen's Coffee
Flavored Brandy Street Stock division. Whittier was
hounded for much of the 30-lap race distance by Lisbon's
Rick Spaulding.
Andrew Breton of Sabattus went
by Spaulding with a couple of laps to go to score
runner-up honors. Spaulding ended up with third
position, with the top five filled out by Peter Huston
of Lisbon Falls and Zach Emerson of Sabattus. Whittier
and Jonathan Emerson of Sabattus won the heat races for
Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stocks.
Maine Racing Hall of Famer Jon Lizotte raced to victory
lane once again in the 15-lap event for Wood Pellet
Warehouse Figure 8 competitors. Mike St. Germain of
Auburn claimed runner-up honors in front on another
all-time OPS great in Figure 8 competition, David Smith
of South Paris. Eric Hodgkins of Auburn and Minot's
Geoff Lowe rounded out the top five.
Cam Childs
of Leeds dominated the 20-lap feature race for the
entry-level Bandit division, winning for the second
straight week. New Gloucester's Dan Wade led the race
for several laps, and outran the balance of the field to
the checkered flag after Childs drove by him.
Tyler Green of Turner filled out the podium finishing
positions, with the top-five rundown completed by
championship points leader Dan Hinkley of Oxford and
Bridgton's Troy Smith. Wade and Hinkley won heat races
for the Bandit class.
