Next race:
Sunoco
Race Fuels Night!
Saturday May 10, 6:30 p.m.
Same time,
next week
Opening night for the Oxford Networks Late Models will have to wait a
week. Contrary to six days of extended forecasts, persistent rain and
midday temperatures in the low 40s forced postponement of Sunoco Race
Fuels Night on Saturday, May 3.
We'll simply push that program to this coming Saturday, May 10, under the
banner of Double T Fence Night. The schedule for the Championship Series
divisions will remain the same, with Outlaws and Ladies running the
Acceleration events. Rebels and Trucks now will make their Agren Appliance
Showdown debut on May 17.

KIDS
ON THE BLOCK
Opening Night gave us a new-look JARRacing Photography Go Kart Series.
Of six features, three went to drivers celebrating their first feature win
at OPS. Zachary Rich (above) joined Brady Smith and Robbie Wentworth in
that category. Spencer
Thompson, a rookie in the Blue Plate class, won his first start in the
division and ended Troy Davis' amazing unbeaten streak in the process.
Winning is old hat for Ethan Matot, relatively speaking. He charged to his
second career win in Box Stock. And two-time champion Mike Ricker returned
from a one-year hiatus to show that he's still the boss in Star Champ.

RICK 'N' ROLL
The final scorecard will say that Ricky Rolfe led all but two laps of
Saturday's season-opening New England Dodge Dealers ACT 150.
And now, the rest of the story: Seven-time ACT champion Jean-Paul Cyr took
away the top spot with four laps to go before Rolfe rallied, winning a
tour race at his home track for the first time since 2002.
April 26 Winners:
New England Dodge 150 - Ricky Rolfe
Allen's Strictly - Matt Williams
Allen's Mini - Dave Mooney
Chimney Tech Outlaw - David Childs
Allen's Ladies - Cathy Manchester
