Curtis Gerry Wins 44th OXFORD 250,
Scores
$35,000.00 PLUS |
Oxford, ME -- Curtis Gerry of Waterboro
dominated when go time came, scoring the biggest racing
victory of his career Sunday in the 44th annual Oxford
250 at Maine's Oxford Plains Speedway. With lap leader
bonuses included, Gerry's win should be worth over
$35,000.
Gerry, who lined up 21st on the starting
grid, needed 123 laps to chase down early race leader
Cassius Clark in Rollie MacDonald's 13. A round of pit
stops saw Scott McDaniel earn some lap leader bonus cash
for 26 laps before Gerry took command for good with just
over 50 laps to go.
Manchseter's Reid Lanpher
made a late charge into second position, claiming
runner-up honors for the second time in the Oxford 250.
Cassius Clark flat-footed the King 13 to a third-place
finish, making a five-figure lap leader bonus check to
add to the trophy payoff.
Eddie MacDonald blazed
a difficult trail to his fourth-place finish after an
apparent heat race victory was negated in post-race
tech. 'The Outlaw' from Rowley, Massachusetts needed a
provisional starting spot to get in the 250, and was
38th on the grid when the green flag waved to start the
main event.
Maine Racing Hall of Famer Mike Rowe
of Turner, at age 67, raced to a top-five finish in the
region's top full-bodied racing class, in their biggest
event of the season. Starting 41st, the man who is by
far the most prolific winner in the history of Oxford
Plains Speedway, schooled a racer or two en route to the
checkered flag.
Wayne Helliwell, Jr., of Dover,
New Hampshire - the defending champion of the Oxford
250, was sixth under the checkered flag. Derek Ramstrom
of West Boylston, Massachusetts battled his share of
adversity and finished in seventh place. Garrett Hall of
Scarborough was eighth and proved to be a contender.
McDaniel ended up in ninth position, scoring his
best-ever racing payday after lap leader cash is
factored in. Alan Tardiff of Lyman rounded out the top
ten, just ahead of six-time PASS North Super Late Model
champion Johnny Clark of Farmingdale.
They know
who he is now in the grandstand. Jeremy Davis of
Tamworth, New Hampshire made a last-lap move from third
to first, winning the 50-lap last chance race to nail
down the 44th and final starting spot to the 44th annual
Oxford 250.
For more than half the race two-time
Late Model track champion Dennis Spencer was racing hard
versus Hall-of-Fame seven-time champ and all-time top
OPS winner Mike Rowe from Turner. That tandem spent most
of the race less than a car length apart, but a little
last-lap bumping and grinding found Davis getting to the
checkered flag first.
Spencer was second at the
line, with Rowe third, and while Spencer was done for
the night, Rowe's night was far from over. Connecticut's
Ray Christian III wrapped up a decent weekend for a
Super Late Model newcomer in fourth spot. Kyle Hewins of
Leeds, in just his fourth Super Late Model start,
rounded out the top five.
Ben Tinker of New
Gloucester broke a three-race losing streak in PASS Mod
competition on Saturday night, and on 250 Sunday he
completed the weekend sweep in the open-wheel class,
winning for the seventh time this season and extending
his already-impressive championship points lead.
Bruce Helmuth of Wales built a big early lead and
may have had a shot at outrunning Tinker if not for
caution periods and the resultant restarts. Helmuth was
the runner-up, with Steve Dickey, Jr. of Milford, New
Hampshire filling out the podium in his best PASS mod
run to date.
Gary Shackford of Center Conway,
New Hampshire and Glenburn's Scott Alexander filled out
the top-five rundown. Dickey and Jimmy Emerson of
Windham claimed 10-lap heat race victories prior to the
40-lap main event.
Greene's Andrew Breton picked
a good afternoon to claim his first-ever Allen's Coffee
Flavored Brandy Street Stock division race, leading all
the way in the 30-lap race before the track's biggest
crowd of the season. Kurt Hewins of Leeds earned
runner-up honors, claiming his second trophy in two
nights.
Livermore's Tyler King had a two-race
winning streak snapped under sunny skies, finishing off
a three-trophy Street Stock Oxford 250 weekend with a
third-place run. Anthony Constantino of Sumner and West
Poland's David Whittier completed the top-five rundown.
Breton and Bryce Mains of Bridgton posted 10-lap heat
race victories.
Legends Car racer Ryan Kuhn of
East Bridgewater, Massachusetts loves Oxford Plains
Speedway, and the 16-year-old added to his growing
hardware collection with an impressive 25-lap score on
the undercard. Even at 16, the youngster who admitted to
the crowd that he begged his father to haul to Oxford
after racing twice earlier in the weekend closer to
home, and the decision paid off with his triumph.
Kuhn was the oldest racer on the podium, with a pair
of 14-year-olds joining him in victory lane. Casey Call
of Pembroke, New Hampshire, who won Friday night at OPS,
claimed runner-up honors. Trenton Goodrow of Carver,
Massachusetts finised up in third position for the
second straight night at the Speedway. Windham's Parker
Varney and Thomas Everson of Gilmanton, New Hampshire
filled out the top five. Kuhn and Goodrow won the heat
races.
Cody Childs of Auburn drove his dad's car
to victory lane in a special, 25-lap race for the
Runnin' Rebels division, an entertaining part of the
Speedway's Acceleration Series, racing mostly on
Wednesdays through the summer months. Childs hit the
wall hard earlier in the weekend in his own car, and
father Conrad Childs handed his ride to the kid, and he
came through before the big Sunday crowd.
Brandon
Varney of Auburn and Cam Childs of Leeds claimed
trophies in the highly-competitive race. Jamie Heath of
Waterford and Stoney, David Stone, Jr. from Alfred,
rounded out the top five. Cam Childs and Matt Mahar of
Raymond scored victories in a pair of eight-lap heat
races for the Runnin' Rebels.
