MOTOR MAYHEM 



August 7, 2009

Kyle, Kurt Hewins steal show;
Jason Black captures full-size Enduro 

OXFORD, Maine – The brother act of Kyle and Kurt Hewins was heavily involved in almost every facet of a wildly successful second Motor Mayhem of the summer Friday night at Oxford Plains Speedway.

Kurt Hewins outlasted four rivals and owned the "last boat standing" in Oxford's inaugural trailer race. Hewins celebrated in unforgettable fashion by sawing on the steering wheel, tipping his own boat, then destroying the one-time watercraft by driving the car borrowed from Dale Sanborn completely through it.

Minutes earlier, Hewins' race-long stalking of leader Jason Black was the highlight of a 50-lap Enduro for full-size cars.

"They told me to go after him," Hewins said. "I was just trying to make it fun for the fans."

Black won the $500 first-place check with a last-lap pass, anyway, when leader Bobby Scammon was forced off the backstretch to avoid a spinning lapped car.

Mike Kyllonen, Billy Rideout and Gerald Parlin rounded out the top five in the 25-car field. Amazingly, all five finished on the lead lap.

Kyle Hewins and Skip Douglass Jr. ran one-two in the 50-lap companion event for compact cars. They also joined forces to dominate a 20-lap tag team race.

The younger Hewins, who already owns seven Acceleration Series victories this season, recovered from an early-race spin to reel in race leader Josh Childs on lap 35.

Childs dropped from the picture with mechanical difficulties, vaulting Jamie Heath to third, Nick Hanson to fourth and Guy Childs to fifth.

For the second straight Motor Mayhem, Bruce Berry defeated brother Dennis Berry in the Spectator Drags final. Bruce swept the best-of-three conclusion.

Doug Dixon edged Junior Kimball in a rambunctious Smoky Donut Show competition, with previous champion Jim Pineo and Billy Dixon also reaping rave reviews from the appreciative crowd.

The Dodge Raminator monster track and Vertical Outlaws motorcycle stunt team also showcased their precision and skill for the fans.
