PASS and ACT Events Cancelled; NH Center of Speed Reschedules Racing

Officials with the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) and the American-Canadian Tour (ACT) have cancelled the planned events for Friday, May 29, due to forecasted rain throughout the seacoast area.

Unfortunately, due to prior commitments next week, the Senior Tour Auto Racers (STAR) will not be able to return on June 5, but officials are looking at options for a later appearance this summer.

“After watching the forecast get worse and worse all week, coupled with our regulated time constraints, we had to cancel the program,” said ACT managing partner Cris Michaud. “We look forward to getting back in the swing of things next Friday.”

New Hampshire’s Center of Speed will be back in action next Friday, June 5, with a full card of racing to include the Super Late Models, Tri-City Lining Street Stocks, Ridge Runners and the MLM Diagnostics Crown Vics with a 7:00pm Start Time. Grandstands open at 5:00pm with Adult General Admission set at $15, kids six to twelve are $5 and all children five and under are free.

Kasey Beattie Wins Wall’s Ford Spring Board 100 at White Mountain Motorsports Park

Plenty of fans and teams joined in to start their Memorial Day Weekend with a Saturday night showdown at White Mountain Motorsports Park. After struggling with a fuel issue in her heat race, Chloe Doyle kept pace with the front of the Dad’s 4 By Tool & Supply Kids Division as Makenzi Sicard and heat winner Khloe Goodbout followed close behind. Cooper Benoit and Gracen Gorham made it a five-way fight for the top spot until Gorham, Sicard and Goodbout were collected in turn four to bring out the lone caution for a green-white-checker finish. In the finale, Chloe Doyle took down her first feature win at White Mountain over Benoit and Evan Folsom.

The two-wide stronghold broke apart by lap five in the 35-lap The Farmyard Store Flying Tiger feature with Nate Hamblett driving away with the lead as Owen Cheney and Shane Sicard gave chase. Sicard faced a mirror full of Kyle Willis with Willis motoring to the outside groove. Nate Hamblett would take down the win just ahead of Cheney at the line while a side-by-side battle for third saw Kyle Willis just edge Luke Peters for the third-place podium spot.

HK Powersports Opening Weekend at WMMP Sees Exciting Action

Picture perfect weather greeted the fans and competitors at White Mountain Motorsports Park for HK Powersports Opening weekend. Over 100 cars filled the pit area for Saturday’s car show and season-starter while the Pro All Stars Series invasion on Sunday afternoon put an exclamation mark on a showstopping start to the 2026 season.

It all began Saturday with a moment to reflect on the loss of track builder and founder Donnie Avery with all cars on display to mark the moment. Racing action started off hot and heavy with the Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kids Division as Gracen Gorham, Maddie Potter, Evan Folsom and Kaden Wimble fought under a blanket nearly all 15 laps! Gorham slid by Potter in the closing laps to claim the win with Wimble keeping third.

The Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Strictly Minis opened the flood-gates to start the feature with Jacob Roy, Donnie Baumgardner and Tyler Thompson duking out for the top spot. At the halfway point Thompson flew out of the groove and into the turn one concrete, drove back the pit area and called it a night. Jacob Roy capitalized late to take the HK Powersports Opening Day win over Baumgardner and John Knight at the line.

Star Speedway, Coastal Clash 150, NH, Milton CAT, ACT Tour

Star Speedway’s Coastal Clash 150 has been postponed from Saturday, May 9, to Sunday, June 14, due to forecasted inclement weather in Epping, New Hampshire. Officials with the Milton CAT American-Canadian Tour and Star Speedway made the decision to reschedule the event after three consecutive races across different facilities earlier this month.

“It’s unfortunate that Mother Nature couldn’t see us through just one more weekend, but we’ve been incredibly lucky up to this point,” said ACT managing partner Cris Michaud. “To save teams the travel this was the best call to make and we’re looking forward to returning to Star Speedway on Sunday, June 14.”

The postponement means the Brookside Equipment Sales Triple Crown will feature back-to-back events starting with the 51st Spring Green at Seekonk Speedway on Saturday, June 6, followed by the Coastal Clash 150 at Star Speedway on Sunday, June 14. The Milton CAT series will next race on Sunday, May 31, at Riverside Speedway & Adventure Park in Groveton, New Hampshire, with additional series including the Pro All Stars Series Super Late Models and PASS Modifieds also set to compete.

Gabe Brown Wins Community Bank 150 on Milton CAT Tour

Barre, VT – In a rare turn of events at the Nation’s Site of Excitement Sunday afternoon, three traveling members of the Milton CAT American-Canadian Tour shocked the usually dominant hometown defenders at Thunder Road International Speedbowl with a sweep of the victory lane podium!

Thirty-five Milton CAT American-Canadian Tour drivers entered the Thunder Road pit area vying for starting position in the 28th annual Community Bank, n.a. 150 on Sunday. Three rounds of qualifying events whittled them down to twenty-nine starters on the grid. Current number-two point man Jake ‘The Jet’ Johnson earned the pole position with a ‘+4’ handicap alongside 2025 Serie ACT Quebec champion Jeff Côte in just his first visit to the Barre highbanks.

Côte quickly shot to the top spot from the outside pole with Thunder Road regulars Justin Prescott, Taylor Hoar and front-running ACT point man Gabe Brown riding in the top five. Meanwhile, the two most recent Thunder Road Kings of the Road, Kaiden Fisher and Jason Corliss, waged a side-by-side battle for seventh throughout the early goings.
