Kelly Moore Prevails in
Super Late Model
Action on
Applebee’s Fireworks Night
|
Oxford, Maine - Kelly Moore of Scarborough raced
to his first Super Late Model victory at Oxford Plains
Speedway on Saturday night, topping the Applebee's
Fireworks Night racing card before an impressive crowd
of race fans at the historic Route 26 speedplant.
For Moore it was his first trip to victory lane at
Oxford Plains Speedway since a NASCAR Busch North Series
triumph in 1991. Moore was the 1984 Oxford Plains
Speedway track champion. After leaving weekly action at
the track he went on to be a champion of the NASCAR
Busch North Series (now known as NASCAR K&N East
Series), where he remains the all-time top race winner
in that touring series' history.
Moore spent most
of this 50-lapper fending off an aggressive challenge by
Jeremy Davis of Tamworth, New Hampshire, who turned in
the night's quickest lap en route to his second-place
finish. Oxford's Dennis Spencer, Jr. raced most of the
50-lap headline race in third position, where he
finished the event.
Dixfield's Scott Robbins
raced hard to earn a fourth-place finish, just edging
out Strong's Tracy Gordon, who was impressive charging
into contention from the outside groove. Gordon,
coincidentally, was the Oxford Plains Speedway track
champion during that 1991season when Moore last won at
the track.
Reigning Allen's Coffee Flavored
Brandy Street Stock division champion Billy Childs, Jr.
of Leeds made his first appearance of the 2018 racing
season a memorable one, as he made a last-lap charge
past Gary Babineau to win the 30-lap race by a margin of
.064-seconds - mere inches.
Babineau, of Hollis
Center, led 29.95 of the 30 laps en route to a runner-up
finish. Zach Bowie of Greene made a late charge into
contention in the unusually wild race. New daddy Tyler
King of Gray was fourth under the checkered flag,
followed by David Vaughn of Naples.
Adam Sanborn
of West Paris, Oxford Plains Speedway's unofficial
leader in nicknames among competitors (Larry Bandito,
Adam 12, etc.), scored his first win in the Bandits
division, leading all 20 laps. Sanborn, the runner-up in
last year's championship battle, held off current points
leader Dustin Salley of Poland to claim victory. Cam
Childs of Leeds was third across the finish line,
followed by Kyle Hewins of Leeds and Buckfield's Chad
Wills.
Dale Lawrence of Lisbon drove to victory
for the third time this year in the 20-lap Figure 8
race. Kyle Glover of Oxford matched his season-best
runner-up finish. Larry Lizotte of Poland was third,
followed by championship points leader Kyle Kilgore of
South Paris and Greg Durgin, also from South Paris.
Calab Emerson-Mains of New Gloucester earned his
first trip to victory lane this season with an
impressive performance in the 25-lap main event for the
Oxford Acceleration Series Outlaw class. Emerson-Mains
held off several challengers throughout the race, with
Lyman's Ajay Cates closest under the checkered flag.
Auburn's Cody Childs was the third-place finisher after
racing hard in the outside groove through most of the
race. Rick Thompson of Naples bounced back from a pit
stop to finish fourth, ahead of Limington's Wade
Gelinas.
Brandon Varney of Mechanic Falls nailed
down his second straight victory in the
highly-competitive Runnin' Rebels division, outrunning
veteran Waterford frontrunner Jamie Heath to the
checkered flag. Doug DeGroat of Oxford was third, just
in front of a very-competitive AJ Smith III of South
Paris. Auburn's Ralph Green rounded out the top five in
the 20-lap test.
Claiming his second victory of
the Applebee's Fireworks Night racing card, Brandon
Varney of Mechanic Falls prevailed for the third time
this season in the 20-lap finale for the Cruiser
division. Phil Knowlton of Oxford, the reigning champion
in the class, earned runner-up honors. Kevin Varney of
Mechanic Falls, winner of the one race his son didn't
prevail in, picked up the third-place trophy. William
Barker of Oxford and New Gloucester's Will Dunphy, Jr.
rounded out the top five.
Defending Sport Truck
track champion Ryan Farrar of Oxford romped to his
fourth victory in four starts this year, dominating his
20-lap feature race. Randy Green of Norway was the best
of the rest. Mike Mayberry of Greene was third-place
finisher. Hartford's Jake Dobson ended up on his roof,
and was credited with a fourth-place run ahead of Kolby
Morrell, from Sebago.
Breeanna Spaulding of
Lisbon raced to her third win of the season in a 15-lap
main event for the Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Ladies
division. Kathryn Childs of Auburn led the opening laps
of the race before settling for runner-up honors. Addie
McDaniel of Bridgton earned third-place hardware, ahead
of Green's Susan Veinott and Annie Chartier of Mexico.
