DAVE FARRINGTON HEATS UP |
RACE REPORT by
Speed51.com |
Dave
Farrington, Jr. is heating up at just the right
time. In addition to the three straight weekly
Super Late Model race wins at Oxford Plains
Speedway, the Jay, ME driver can now add a Pro
All Stars Series race win to his impressive
resume.
Farrington was the dominant car late
in Sunday afternoon's Oxford 250 tune-up race,
taking the lead for the final time on lap 109 of
the 150-lap contest. From there, he pulled away
from Johnny Clark and Derek Griffith, scoring
his first ever PASS Super Late Model victory
just two weeks before the 47th Annual Oxford 250
on August 28-30.
"That's four in a row,"
Farrington said in Victory Lane. "Three weekly
series wins in a row and we finally accomplished
our first PASS tour win ever. Obviously we have
the car maintained, well-balanced, and a little
Lady Luck never hurts every once in a while.
"What a time to be rolling, coming into the
250, that's for sure. We are something excited
for that."
Farrington is definitely
enjoying his winning streak, but with the 250
just two weeks away, he is leaning towards
keeping his horses in the stable over the next
two weeks before the big race.
"I think
after two in a row I was told I should put this
home and cover it up," Farrington said with a
laugh. "I think this will stay home next
weekend, lock the doors, cover it up. I think
we're in pretty good shape to take a week off
and enjoy ourselves."
Perennial contender
Johnny Clark charged his way up from a
12th-place starting spot to finish second, as he
continues the hunt for his elusive first Oxford
250 title. Clark feels strong about his chances
this year.
"The car hasn't been this good
at Oxford since the 250 last year, so it seems
like the timing is right for us," Clark stated.
"We've been struggling here, the last race here
we went three laps down. We didn't bring
anything back the same, except for the chassis
of course, and it's a lot better car. Just need
a little more and maybe we can run with some of
those distance cars."
Hudson, NH driver
Derek Griffith brought home a solid third-place
finish, at a track that admittedly hasn't been
his best. Griffith worked his way from outside
the top 10, leading a handful of laps before
Farrington took over the point.
"We were
just a little too free all day," Griffith said
after the race. "It fired off really good, I
picked up all my positions basically on
restarts. The old girl did really good today,
not exactly my best track so a top three is
pretty good with the 250 just around the
corner."
Austin Terras was the race's
biggest mover, gaining 20 positions on the track
to finish fourth, and was followed to the line
by Joey Doiron. D.J. Shaw, Alan Wilson, Ben
Ashline, Craig Weinstein, and Travis Benjamin
rounded out the top 10.
There is just one
more race for the PASS Super Late Model teams to
get their cars in order - the PASS Open on
Saturday, August 22 at Oxford Plains Speedway.
The teams and drivers will then roll right into
the 47th Annual Oxford 250, taking place August
28-30, 2020.
Race fans will be able to
watch the Oxford 250 via
a live
PAY-PER-VIEW BROADCAST on Speed51. Discounted
three-day tickets can be purchased HERE today
for $50. |

Morse's Luck
Turns |
Coming into the 2020 season, champion Spencer
Morse was looking forward to another great
points battle to defend his 2019 Title. A string
of bad luck resulting in several poor finishes
has mired Morse nearly 100 points out coming
into Saturdays Lee's Family Trailer Sales Pass
Mod 50. That luck seems to have finally turned
as Morse scored his second win of the year
Sunday at Oxford Plains Speedway.
Morse
who started the feature in the seventh spot was
able to capitalize on other competitor's
misfortune to quickly move his way to the front.
Before lap 6 Morse overtook early leader Milo
Washer to put the #34 out front for good. More,
however, didn't have it as easy as it sounds. A
pair of cautions erased sizable leads forcing
Morse to defend his lead throughout the contest.
Morse was dogged by a very fast Ryan Ripley over
the last dozen laps before beating him across
the line by a car length to keep his
championship hopes alive.
Ryan Ripley,
making his first start of the season, came all
the way from his 16th starting spot to secure
runner-up honors. Ripley appeared to be the
fastest car in the field and twice challenged
eventual winner Morse on the high side, but in
the end ran out of tire before settling for the
runner-up spot. Third place went to veteran
Bobby Nadeau who also challenged for the lead
throughout the early stages of the race before
finishing out the 50 lap contest in the final
podium spot. Rounding out the top five was point
leader Tyler King who uncharacteristically
struggled to get near the leaders, and "The
Mayor" Matt Sanborn came all the way from the
back row to score his second top 5 of the
season.
The PASS MODS return to action in
two weeks at the 47th annual Oxford 250 with a
50 lap contest on Saturday and a 75 lap tilt on
Sunday. |

No Fault in Dufault
|
Matt Dufault
Scored the Tri-fecta in Sundays Honey Badger 50 as he
won his heat race, had the fastest lap of the race, and
secured his first win in series competition as he held
off point leader Jordan Russell. Dufault, who is a two
time defending champion in weekly competition, has
gotten off to a bit of a slow start in 2020 by his
standards as he started the month of August without a
win. However, Dufault seems to have found that missing
something as he has now scored a weekly win as well as
Sundays series win.
Dufault used his pole
position starting spot in the heat to wire that contest
and earn the number one starting spot for the feature.
While the blue 61 was decidedly the best car on the day,
it wasn't without its challenges. Jordan Russell spent
most of his day hanging off the right rear quarter of
the eventual winner as the two drivers took turns
setting the fastest lap of the race. Russell, however,
"just didn't have quite enough" to complete the pass for
the lead and settled for the second spot to extend his
series point lead. Zach Bowie was third across the line
before running afoul of tech which handed the final
podium spot to Rick Spaulding with his best finish of
the year as be continues to sort out his new car. Mark
Turner and Skip Stanley rounded out the top 5.
The Honey Badger Bar and Grill Street Stock series
returns to action on September 19th at White Mountain
Motorsports Park. |
