Torrential rain forced the Drive Sober 125 from its Friday start to a Saturday afternoon green flag but the weather did not stop Eddie MacDonald from posting a fantastic second place finish in the K&N Pro Series East final season race. Rain washed out practice and qualifying so the field was set by the rulebook with Eddie Mac starting 23rd in the 31- car field. A pit lane penalty during the competition left the team wondering “What if” after the race.
The second place run was the Grimm Construction/Multiple Sclerosis Chevy driver’s best performance of the five races run in the series of the fourteen scheduled events. Eddie Mac scored two top tens, a sixth at Bristol and a ninth at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

EAST MONTPELIER, Vt. – With only two races left on the American Canadian Tour schedule, Emily Packard and her Northstar Fireworks/Packard Fuels team is ready to return to Airborne Park Speedway this weekend for the Fall Foliage 200. “We have raced there two times already this season,” said Packard, “and it makes a difference to know the track as we head there.”
Packard has competed in the Fall Foliage race the last 2 seasons, finishing 11th (in 2013) and 15th (2014) and believes that she can have a good finish again this weekend. “We always have a good car and seem to run pretty decent here,” Packard said. “I hope we can get the car dialed in during practice and so I can go out and have a great run and finish as far up front as I can.”
