TRAVIS BENJAMIN WINS DELAYED
PASS NORTH OPENER
It may have taken Travis Benjamin an extra day, but the wait was worth it as he scored a popular win in the season opening Ripley and Fletcher Ford PASS 150 at Oxford Plains Speedway in Oxford, Maine on Sunday afternoon. The race was actually scheduled to take place on Saturday, but due to steady rains the event was postponed until Sunday. The race was even in doubt for Sunday, as the showers persisted until late morning. After a lengthy track drying process, qualifying began around 1:15, and you could tell that the thirty-five PASS Super Late Models in attendance were anxious and ready. DJ Shaw, Joey Doiron and Trevor Sanborn claimed wins in the highly competitive qualifying rounds.

Shaw, fresh off his win in the Easter Bunny 150 at Hickory, bolted to the lead and held the point til lap 7 when Trevor Sanborn grabbed the lead. Scott Mulkern raced to the lead on lap 11 and held it until Trevor Sanborn raced by. Sanborn’s lead was short lived as Richie Dearborn took the top spot on lap 65 and was on cruise control through lap 130. At that point, Dearborn, Benjamin and Shaw picked up the pace dramatically and pulled away from the rest of the field.

All of a sudden heavy lapped traffic made the trio dice back and forth, weave in and out, causing each of them to try bonsai maneuvers to get to the front as laps continued to wind down. This traffic jam allowed Benjamin to pinch Dearborn behind a lapped car and into the lead on lap 138. Over the final laps Benjamin opened up a couple of car lengths lead as he crossed the line ahead of Dearborn, Shaw, Johnny Clark and Scott Mulkern. Completing the top ten were Austin Theriault, Mike Rowe, Joey Doiron, Trevor Sanborn and Brent Dragon.

The PASS Sportsman event was a wild one as several cautions continually changed the outcome of the event. When the dust settled Joe Pastore Jr. scored the victory over Rusty Poland, Chris Staples, Dan McKeage and Nathan Leavitt.

Andy Shaw easily outdistanced a nineteen car field of PASS Mods, as he ran away and hid from Scott Alexander, Evan Armington, Andy Saunders and Ryan Phillips.

The NELCAR Legends main event was won by Kevin Gerard Jr. Rounding out the top five were Matthew Bourgoine, Wyatt Alexander, Terry Kirk and Alan Smith.

CASSIUS CLARK READY TO DEFEND
PASS NORTH SLM TITLE
Farmington, Maine’s, Cassius Clark is all set to start his 2014 PASS North Super Late Model title defense this coming Saturday, April 26th at Oxford Plains Speedway in Oxford Maine. The defending champion will once again be aboard the potent #77 Super Late Model owned by Corey Hight, and sponsored by Hight Chevrolet, Buick, GMC.

Clark won his first PASS SLM championship in 2013, and he did it with consistent finishes all season long. In twelve starts last season, he carried the checkered flag twice, had nine top five finishes, and eleven top tens. His consistency allowed him to edge out runner-up Joey Doiron by a mere four points, and third place finisher, DJ Shaw, by just five points. Travis Benjamin finished fourth, just eight-eight points back, while Ben Rowe rounded out the top five. The top four racers in points collected nine of the twelve feature event wins.

2014 looks to be an outstanding season for PASS as several veteran teams, and newcomers will be challenging for the title. Two such veteran campaigners are multi-time champions Johnny Clark and Ben Rowe. Both of these racers were held winless in 2013, and have spent the entire offseason upgrading their racers for 2014. They both are very excited about the upcoming race season, and have high hopes of climbing back to the top of the pack and challenging for the coveted championship title.

The PASS Mods will see Scott Alexander try to defend his title against many cagey veterans, and a slew of newcomers. Expect this title battle to go down to the wire in 2014. The PASS Sportsman will kick off their season as well, and there just might be a new champion crowned as 2013 champ Cary Martin has hinted that something else may be in his plans for this season.

The PASS North Series opens up Saturday, April 26th at Oxford Plains Speedway with a post time of 2pm. There will be an open practice for all PASS divisions and NELCAR Legends on Friday, April 25th from 1-6pm, pits open at 11am. Oxford Plains Speedway is located on Route 26 in Oxford, Maine. For more information call the Track hotline at 207-539-8865.
