Star Speedway Race Report
EPPING, N.H. – Lonnie Sommerville of Saint John, New Brunswick, finished fourth in the PASS North Series Star 150 at Star Speedway in Epping, N.H., on Saturday, May 14. It was Sommerville’s second fourth-place finish in as many starts this season. Sommerville started eighth in the 22-car field, but an early domino-effect spin set him back to shotgun on the field. He rallied back to the Top-10 by Lap 100 and was sitting on the outside pole on the first of several green-white-checkered restarts. After a couple of leaders got together, he was forced to settle for the fourth-place finish.
