Dennis Spencer wins Championship
Series
Super Late Model finale,
Alan Tardiff gets track
title on tiebreaker at Oxford Plains Speedway |
Oxford, Maine -- Dennis Spencer, Jr. of Oxford
nailed down his second Budweiser Championship Series
Super Late Model victory of the season in the 50-lap
championship points finale Saturday night at Oxford
Plains Speedway, while Lyman's Alan Tardiff prevailed in
a points tiebreaker to claim his first championship in
the track's premiere racing class.
Spencer, who
just barely missed the cut to get into the recent Oxford
250 classic, started the race from 11th position. He
quickly made his way forward through the field, had a
good battle for the race lead with Scarborough's Kelly
Moore, then held off Super Late Model rookie Ryan
Robbins of Dixfield to claim victory.
Alan
Tardiff of Lyman raced to a third-place finish after
starting the race in 12th, eight points behind two-time
track champion TJ Brackett of Buckfield, who ended up in
seventh position. That put Tardiff and Brackett into a
points tie, and with both earning two race victories
during the season, Tardiff won the title by earning one
more runner-up finish than Brackett during the racing
campaign.
Kelly Moore led about half of the race
and was fourth across the finish line. Ellsworth's Andy
Saunders was the fifth-place finisher. Winterport's Ryan
Deane was sixth, by inches, over TJ Brackett. Timmy
Brackett of Buckfield, Alan Wilson of Hebron and Minot's
Bruce Haley rounded out the top ten.
Race winner
Spencer and Timmy Brackett were triumphant in a pair of
12-lap heat races for the Super Late Models.
Billy Childs, Jr. of Leeds won his seventh Allen's
Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stock main event of the
year, wrapping up the track championship in the process.
Childs took the lead at the 30-lap race's halfway point
and maintained a fairly-comfortable advantage until the
checkered flag waved.
Jordan Russell of Norway
had his best run of the season, leading the first
fourteen laps before finishing in second position. Rick
Spaulding of Lisbon earned a third-place finish.
Livermore's Tyler King just barely took fourth position
away from West Poland's David Whittier at the finish
line. Whittier and Bryce Mains of Bridgton won 10-lap
heat races for the Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Street
Stock class.
Jamie Heath of Waterford cruised to
yet another victory in the 20-lap finale for the Bandits
division. Heath, the 2016 Bandits champion, was chased
across the finish line by last year's championship
runner-up, Tyler Green of Turner. Chad Wills of Oxford,
Tyler Libby of Auburn and Jay's Dean Jordan rounded out
the top five.
Auburn's Brandon Varney prevailed
in a tight Bandits division championship battle despite
a 13th-place finish earned after missing a shift while
running third on a late-race restart. Varney and Green
won heat races.
Eric Hodgkins of Winthrop won the
15-lap Figure 8 race again, but runner-up Tommy Tompkins
of Carthage wrapped up a track title with a runner-up
effort. Third-place finisher Kyle Kilgore of South Paris
ended up second in Figure 8 points. David Smith of South
Paris and Jon Lizotte of Lewiston filled out the
top-five rundown.
Gerry Freve of Buckfield outran
Lewiston's Guy Childs to claim victory in the 25-lap
Outlaw division's points finale. Rich Mains of Naples,
at 51 the youngest of the podium finishers, was chased
under the checkered flag by Steve Moon of Gray and
Richmond's Caleb Emerson-Mains. Freve and Mains won the
Outlaw division's heat races.
Ron Moon of North
Yarmouth, who first strapped into a racecar 50 years
ago, claimed the Oxford Acceleration Series Outlaw
Division Championship.
John Childs of Leeds
outran his son, Cam Childs, to claim victory in the
20-lap OAS Runnin' Rebel race. Brandon Varney of Auburn
barely prevented a Childs family sweep with a
third-place run. Auburn's Cody Childs nailed down the
track title in the Rebel class, racing 'big picture' all
the way to the checkered flag en route to a fourth-place
finish ahead of Oxford's Doug Degroat. Varney and Jamie
Heath of Waterford posted heat race victories.
Brandon Varney of Auburn raced to as second straight
victory in the 20-lap OAS Cruiser class. Phil Knowlton
of Oxford wrapped up his first Cruiser division track
championship season with runner-up honors in the
20-lapper. Aubin's John Poulin, Paul Rowe of South Paris
and Will Dunphy, Jr. of New Gloucester rounded out the
top five. Dunphy won the heat race.
Danny Wear of
Buxton won the battle, but a second-place run was all
that Oxford's Ryan Farrar needed to earn the track
championship in the OAS Truck class. Mark Grantham of
Casco joined Wear and Farrar in victory lane. Nick
Calvert of Steep Falls and New Gloucester's Chuck Estes
rounded out the top five. Wear won the heat race.
Maggie Ferland of Auburn cruised into victory lane
after her 20-lap triumph nailed down the track title in
the Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Ladies race. Kathryn
Childs of Auburn was second in the race and third in the
championship bout. Bridgton's Shelby Shurtleff was the
championship runner-up, finishing third in the final
points race. Chloe Kiley of South Paris won the heat
race.
Jake Matheson of Hillsboro, New Hampshire
got by points leader and defending OPS champion Austin
Teras of Windham en route to victory on the 20-lap
Legends Cars main event. Trenton Goodrow of Carver,
Massachusetts was third across the finish line. Buxton's
Colby Meserve and Thomas Everson of Gilmanton, New
Hampshire filled out the top-five rundown. Teras won the
heat race.
