Mike Rowe didn’t look like a winner during qualifying for Saturdays’ Pro All Stars Series (PASS) North season opener at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway. Rowe started the 150 lap super late model feature in the 28th position but the defending Pro Series Champion at the immaculate Scarborough Maine oval picked his way through the field to put his PT Watts Chevrolet on race leader Trevor Sanborn’s back bumper at the half way mark..
