A season of parity in the Super Late Model division continued Saturday night at Oxford Plains Speedway, and it was a familiar face with the biggest smile in victory lane.
Veteran driver and former track champion Tim Brackett beat out 16 other competitors to win the 50-lap SLM feature, capturing his first win of the season. Brackett became the eighth different winner in nine weekly division features, and 10th in 11 overall SLM races (weekly and Pro All Stars Series combined) at the track this season. Only rookie Max Cookson has won multiple features this season.
Sharing the podium with Brackett were runner-up Calvin Rose Jr. and Curtis Gerry — who also finished second and third behind race-winner Brandon Barker the week before.
Other winners Saturday night include: Danny Wear (Mods), Jordan Russell (Street Stocks), Chris Smith (Limiteds), Nick Wilson (Mad Bombers), Evan Roy (Rookies), Adam Stearns (Thunder Stocks) and Dale Lawrence (Figure 8s).
Winners in Friday’s Oxford Acceleration Series action include: Skip Tripp (Outlaws), Matt Verrill (Sport Trucks), Ryan Varney (Cruisers), AJ Smith (Rebels), Breeanna Spaulding (Ladies) and Ava Gailloux (Jr. Rookies).
Both the Acceleration Series and the Oxford Championship Series divisions will be in action this Saturday, with fireworks also scheduled.
JOHHNY CLARK CAPTURES PASS WIN
The Pro All Stars Series SLMs visited Seekonk Speedway in Massachusetts on Saturday night, and Johnny Clark added another checkered flag to his vast collection.
Clark outlasted a 25-car field to capture the 150-lap feature. Angelo Belsito was the runner-up and Eddie MacDonald rounded out the podium in third.
The PASS SLMs and Mods, as well as the American-Canadian Tour, will be back in action Sunday, July 10, at Oxford Plains.
