Bubba Pollard
Prevails
in 45th Oxford 250
Georgia racer wins in
first-ever
Oxford Plains Speedway appearance |
|
2018 250 LAP BOARD |
Axford, Maine -- Bubba Pollard showed
New England race fans that the reputation
preceding him to the 45th Annual Clark’s Scrap
Metal Oxford 250 was much more than hype,
winning the biggest one-day short track Super
Late Model race in his first attempt Sunday at
Oxford Plains Speedway.
Pollard, from
Senoia, Georgia, got his first look at the
Speedway on Friday.
The definition of a true
Super Late Model racing outlaw, Pollard, 31,
convinced New England race fans that he’s
clearly among the best short track racers in
North America, conquering the unique Oxford
Plains Speedway racetrack in his first attempt.
Pollard took the lead away from Travis Benjamin
of Belfast, a two-time Oxford 250 champion in
his own right, then outran another former 250
champion, Joey Polewarczyk, Jr. of Hudson, New
Hampshire to the checkered flag.
Reid
Lanpher of Manchester made a late charge into
third position during the closing laps.
Scarborough’s Garrett Hall ended up in fourth
place after dominating more than half the race
from his pole starting position, earning some
$20,00-plus with lap leader bonuses included.
Berwick’s Joey Doiron, a former PASS Super Late
Model National Champion, rounded out the top
five.
Pollard overcame a bad draw – he
started dead last in the final of five heat
races – and needed to run a second-round 20-lap
qualifying race to earn 29th starting position
in the 42-car starting field. Dealing with a
field of unfamiliar foes in a race with traffic
rivaled by few, if any, big Super Late Model
races, Pollard made all of the right moves as he
methodically moved into contention for the win.
A racer’s racer, Pollard was impressive from
the drop of the green flag, working his way into
the top five during the long green flag stretch
that opened the 250. Seemingly making all of the
right moves in traffic as the Super Late Models
frequently raced three-wide, the appreciative
Maine crowd soon realized the third-generation
Peach State racer was going to be a contender to
pick up the big check at the end of the annual
Maine classic.
In victory lane, Pollard
expressed his appreciation to the crowd, as
clearly he was jacked up and ready to perform
before the full grandstand, increasingly rare in
the smartphone age. The crowd returned the love,
clearly appreciating the successful effort of
the first-time OPS invader.
Polewarczyk,
a winner during the brief Late Model era of the
250 and no stranger to victory lane in a Super
Late Model at Oxford Plains Speedway, looked
like a contender in the early stages and put
together an impressive late charge into the
runner-up position. Lanpher, twice a runner-up
in the 250, claimed his third podium finish and
250 trophy.
Hall was the story for more
than half of the race, leading all but a few
laps for more than the first half of the 250,
occasionally battling and swapping the lead with
seven-time OPS track champion Jeff Taylor of
Fairfield, making his first Super Late Model
start of the year. The young Scarborough racer
scored his best-ever racing payday, despite just
missing out on a trophy, posting a fourth-place
finish.
Doiron, an infrequent competitor
on the region’s top Super Late Model circuit
this season, rounded out the top-five. Current
Pro All Stars Series North championship points
leader DJ Shaw of Center Conway, New Hampshire
was sixth under the checkered flag, one spot
better than his closest rival in the standings,
Benjamin.
Mike Hopkins of Hermon raced
among the leader throughout the 250-lapper and
earned an eight-place finish. Brandon Barker of
Windham ended up in ninth position , with the
top ten rundown filled out by Ben Rowe of
Turner, who claimed some lap leader bonus money
and battled up front with winner Pollard for
several laps.
Ben Tinker of New
Gloucester padded his advantage atop the
championship points standings in the PASS Mods
ranks, winning his fifth 40-lap feature race of
the year in an eventful race. Bruce Helmuth of
Wales was the runner-up, followed by Milford,
New Hampshire’s Steve Dickey, Jr. The three
podium finishers were also in those same spots
at last year’s Oxford 250 program.
Saturday night winner Spencer Morse of Waterford
was fourth, followed by second-ranked points man
Gary Shackford of Center Conway, New Hampshire.
The Mods race next along with the PASS North
Super Late Models at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway
in Scarborough, Maine on Saturday, September 23
before wrapping up their championship season
back at Oxford Plains Speedway on October 13. |
