Brackett becomes second repeat
Late Model winner after Morse DQ
OXFORD, Maine - The fans watched Ricky Morse seemingly become the
ninth different winner in 12 Oxford Networks Late Model features
this season Saturday night at Oxford Plains Speedway.
The technical inspection staff discovered something different,
awarding Tim Brackett the 40-lap victory after Morse was
disqualified for an illegal carburetor spacer in his ride.
Brackett became only the second repeat winner of the season in
Oxford's top division, joining four-time winner Travis Adams.
Don Wentworth held off Adams' charge at the line for what would
become second. Jeff White wound up fourth, with Shawn Knight fifth.
Skip Tripp's bid for a record-shattering 19th career Allen's Coffee
Flavored Brandy Strictly Stock victory fell one spot shy and was
stymied by a rookie.
Rick Spaulding borrowed the Dennis Dee memorial #88D and led
wire-to-wire for the 30-lap win, his first in the Championship
Series.
Tripp took second, followed by Mike St. Germain, Matt Williams and
Larry Emerson.
Spaulding was the second rookie to find victory lane on the evening.
When leaders Jimmy Childs and Darrell Moore tangled at the front of
the Allen's Mini Stock field, rookie Calvin Rose Jr. was in the
right place to inherit his second straight 30-lap triumph.
Rose denied a late charge from point leader Justin Karkos to score
the victory. Defending champion Ashley Marshall completed the top
three, trailed by first-year Mini competitor Jake Burns and Larry
Melcher.
Guy Childs stormed to his second Chimney Tech Outlaw victory of the
season, breezing to the front in an action-packed, 20-lap encounter.
Steve Moon emerged from a nine-car battle for second with Josh
Childs, Chris Burgess and Jerry Freve giving chase.
Dottie Patria tightened her grip on a likely second straight Agren
Appliance Saturday Showdown title with her sixth Allen's Ladies
victory of the season.
Tori Burgess and Missy Morgan continued the theme of terrific nights
for rookies, finishing second and third. Missy Blash was fourth with
Annie Chartier a career-best fifth.
OPS will crank it up four straight nights next week, starting with
the Acceleration Series on Wednesday. The Agren Summer Slam will run
its championship round Thursday, followed by the JARRacing
Photography Go Kart Series championship night and triple features
Friday and the Championship Series. Starting time each night is 6:30
p.m.
