Helliwell conquers Oxford Plains
Speedway,
earns HP Hood Oxford 250 spot in
100-lap
PASS Super Late Model triumph |
Oxford, Maine - Wayne Helliwell, Jr. of
Dover, New Hampshire raced to a convincing win
aboard the Bruce Bernhardt Ford to earn a
career-first victory at Oxford Plains Speedway
in Pro All Stars Series Super Late Model
competition on Sunday evening.
Helliwell's triumph earned an immediate
financial reward of $2000, but more importantly,
it nails down a coveted guaranteed spot in the
rich, 43rd Annual HP Hood Oxford 250 on August
28 if he otherwise fails to earn a spot in all
available qualifying races.
Adam Polvinen
of Auburn paced the early stages of the
100-lapper after outgunning Boca Raton,
Florida's Dalton Sargeant early on. Helliwell
made steady progress from his 12th starting
position, earned by gaining six spots in his
heat race, and once in front he had no match on
this night.
Runner-up Scott Farrington
of Minot and third-place finisher Sargeant also
earned conditional 250 starting spots after
exhausting all other options. Farrington started
fifth in the 100-lapper and watched a few rivals
go by early on before making a late charge into
second position under the checkered flag.
Sargeant battled with the frontrunners and,
short of victory, had a successful night.
Buckfield's Timmy Brackett, the reigning track
champion and current points leader in Budweiser
Championship Series Super Late Model competition
at Oxford Plains Speedway, was the fourth-place
finisher. Polvinen, who led early, and led
often, closed out the top five.
Despite
the fact that recent series winners were not
eligible for the event, a stellar field of 36
PASS North Super Late Models were on hand for
the night before the 4th 100-lapper. Polvinen,
Sargeant and Windham's Bobby Timmons of Windham
won heat races. Dale Shaw of Center Conway, New
Hampshire won the last chance qualifier.
While no free pass to the big HP Hood Oxford 250
was up for grabs, there was still a $2000 top
prize for the Colossal Carnage 100 Enduro race
for four and six-cylinder cars co-featured on
the special Sunday racing program at Oxford
Plains Speedway.
Oxford's own Shaun
Hinkley, the reigning king of the Bandits class,
outlasted Matt Mahar after swapping the lead a
time or two. Jacob Hethcoat, Cam Childs and
Michael Ogden filled out the top five. Close to
sixty cars started the race.
The North
East Street Stock Tour was in town for a
35-lapper, but despite the presence of a few
invaders, it was Turner's Matt Dufault
prevailing, scoring his second win of the
weekend aboard the Rodney Williams 61 at Oxford
Plains Speedway. Dufault has won in his last
three starts in the ride.
Dufault led a
sweep of the top five by Maine drivers, with
four of those weekly Oxford Plains Speedway
competitors. Bryce Mains of Naples, Kurt Hewins
of Leeds, David Whittier of West Poland and
Jonathan Emerson of Sabattus rounded out the top
five.
Cam Childs of Leeds prevailed in a
wild 10-lap Flagpole Race. Bryce Mains of Naples
was a controversial winner in a kind of, sort of
Spectator Drags finale over Jeff Audet. New
Hampshire's Jim Pineo smoked Jordan Russell and
the rest in Smoky Donut Show competition.
Wednesday, July 6 the NAPA Acceleration
Series takes center stage at Oxford Plains
Speedway with five divisions of action on tap
for five bucks at the grandstand gate. It's
Budweiser Championship Series Fan Appreciation
Night with $5 grandstand admission on Friday,
