nails down second win this season at Oxford Plains

Budweiser Championship Series action

Oxford, Maine - TJ Brackett put on one of this
season's most impressive Super Late Model runs, winning
the 50-lap main event topping the Budweiser Championship
Series racing card Saturday night at Oxford Plains
Speedway.
Brackett, a former champion of the top
class at the track, became the second driver this season
to win twice in weekly Super Late Model competition.
Fourteen drivers have won a 50-lap Super Late Model race
in 16 events this year. The other driver to win more
than once is TJ Brackett's father, Tim Brackett, the
reigning track champion and current points leader.
Shawn Knight of South Paris led a healthy chunk of
the race, but wasn't able to hold off Brackett, who was
impressive using the outside groove and able to get it
done down low as well after starting the race from 13th
position.
Timmy Brackett started and finished
two positions behind his victorious son after starting
15th. Windham's Corey Bubar spent a lot of time in the
outside groove and finished in fourth position, while
Bobby Timmons of Windham posted his second straight
top-five finish.
Bangor's Gary Smith went from
16th to sixth, while Dixfield's Scott Robbins started
21st and finished seventh. Turner's Shawn Martin,
Anson's Scott Moore and Alan Wilson of Hebron rounded
out the top ten.
Matt Williams took most of the
season off before returning to competition in the
Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stock division a
few weeks ago, and the Brownfield driver put on one of
the best runs of the season in the class, racing from
14th spot on the starting grid into victory lane after
30 laps of action.
Championship points leader
Matt Dufault of Turner was closest to Williams when the
checkered flag waved, with second-place points man
Calvin Rose, Jr. of Turner posting another third-place
finish to stay alive in the title bout. Guy Childs of
Sabattus and Norway's Jordan Russell rounded out the top
five.
Jamie Heath of Waterford took another step
toward the Bandit division championship, charging from
the middle of the starting grid to an early lead that he
would not relinquish in the 20-lap finale for the
MacDonald Motors of Bridgton class.
Heath's
closest rival in the title race, Tyler Green of Turner,
chased him under the checkered flag. Jacob Hall of
Oxford raced from 13th starting position to claim the
final trophy. Bill Grover of Waterford and Oxford's
Charlie 'Chachy' Hall rounded out the top five.
David Smith of South Paris held off Jon Lizotte of
Lewiston and won another interesting Figure 8 15-lapper.
Kyle Kilgore of South Paris claimed the third-place
trophy, well behind the legendary combination he shared
the podium with in the Gravely/Ariens/Dave's Small
Engines class. Greg Durgin of South Paris was fourth
across the line, followed by the early race leader, Dale
Lawrence of Lisbon Falls.
