Davis delivers second straight;
Brackett sets Ladies record
OXFORD, Maine - One week after winning the 'B' feature and
dismissing his car as a little bit old and tired, Jim Davis Jr.
showed everyone Wednesday night that he was either playing possum or
did his homework.
Davis won the Chimney Tech Outlaw 'A' feature at Oxford Plains
Speedway, charging from the back to the front and claiming his
second straight Acceleration Series victory.
Chris Burgess chased Davis to the stripe, falling shy by a car
length. Chris Coolidge edged Steve Moon by a fender for third.
Zach Bowie and Shannon Judd also sped to victory in Outlaw
competition. Bowie dominated the 'B' feature with Michael Haynes and
Addison Bowie a distant second and third, respectively. Judd
captured the 'C' triumph with ease over Josh Paradis and Bon
Ferguson.
Jamie Leavitt and Corey Beaulieu each picked their first Macdonald
Motors Runnin' Rebel win of the season in races with bizarre
finishes.
Leavitt ran second to dominant Dustin
Salley for most of the 20-lap 'A' main until Derek Cook's roll-over
brought out a late red flag and necessitated a green-white-checkered
finish.
Salley's slow start gave Leavitt a healthy jump when the green
reappeared, and Leavitt drew away to a convincing victory. Salley
dropped to third before resurging to edge Craig Farrington for
second.
Beaulieu was part of a three-car battle for the win with Jamie Heath
and Ryan Philbrick.
Lurking along the inside lane throughout, Beaulieu was in the right
position when Philbrick ran into trouble with traffic on the final
lap. Heath held on for second, with newcomer John Mason third after
enjoying a huge lead in the early going.
"Flyin'" Ryan Farrar emerged from a furious, six-vehicle
battle for the Call of the Wild RV Center Sport Truck win, his
second straight.
Farrar passed John Lizotte on the final lap after swapping the top
spot with him numerous times over the second half of the event. Opie
Allard nipped Ross Spurling for third.
Vanna Brackett stands alone with the most wins in the Acceleration
Series Allen's Coffee Flavored Brandy Ladies division after her
one-car length victory over Cathy Manchester. Dottie Patria was
third.
Brackett broke a tie for that distinction with Debbie Martin, who
also posted numerous victories in the 1980s era of Ladies
competition at OPS.
Bill Grover logged his second
straight Goulet Home Inspections Renegade win, leading all 10 laps
over Bob Morey and Gerard Cote.
The Acceleration Series returns next Wednesday, June 24 at 6:30 p.m.
OPS roars back to life Saturday at 6:30 with Subway Night. Five
divisions are in action, highlighted by a 100-lap Mini Stock main
event. As part of our Fathers' Day Celebrations, dads will be
admitted free with one paid child's admission.
