Scarborough, Maine- Bobby Babb scored the NASCAR Whelan All American Series 40 lap Pro Series win on Saturday night at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway. Joining Babb in victory on the night were Frank Wear, Lewis Anderson and Trevor Graffam. The 40 lap Pro Series feature race saw Mike Maietta Jr in the early lead with Steven Jones hanging in for second. Jones made a move for the lead on lap 2 but Maietta Jr was still hanging to his outside. The quest for victory ended on lap 5 for Jones when he spun while leading sending Maietta Jr back to the front. Maietta held off T.J. Brackett from laps 5 through 11 as Steve Carrier and Bobby Babb were quickly coming to the front in the outside groove. On lap 20 Carrier got to second place but that only lasted 1 lap because Babb went flying past him on the next lap. Babb kept his foot in the gas pedal still on lap 21 and disposed of Maietta as he took the lead. Carrier and Maietta found themselves in a disagreement over space on the track on lap 29 as Carrier got into Maietta and both cars spun. The final restart would be entertaining as Babb and Brackett diced for the lead but in the end again Bobby Babb drove to victory lane as Brackett finished in a very solid second position. Dan McKeage was third with Bub Bilodeau and Dave Oliver fourth and fifth.
