CRAZY HORSE RACING: A ‘New’ Arrival On ACT Tour
SOUTH PARIS, Maine – When Austin Theriault won the ACT Late Model Tour 150 last Saturday night at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, Maine, it wasn’t just the young driver’s first career victory in the series.
The win also marked the first ACT Late Model Tour victory for the new 2012 chassis unveiled by Crazy Horse Racing over the winter.
“I’ve got a lot of people to thank. This was a long time coming,” Theriault said after winning on Saturday night. “Crazy Horse Racing, my parents, Pelletier Ford, the fans for coming out and cheering me even when we missed it.”

Travis Beale of Hampden took the lead on lap one of the 1st annual Chummy’s Groundhog Special for Little Enduros at Speedway 95 Wednesday night and led all the way in the caution free 50 lap event. Beale was never seriously challenged although Fred Ashmore Jr. of Hancock was closing in on the leader when the checkers came out. Ashmore, who started fifth had worked his way up into the second spot by the half way point, but couldn’t get close enough to Beale to make a serious challenge for the top spot. In post race inspection, Ashmore’s car was disqualified for not meeting the chassis height specifications, so Garett Hayman of Milford was awarded second after dropping as far back as sixth at one point, but working his way back toward the front as the laps progressed. Hermon’s Andrew Crosby finished in third with Beal’s wife, Danielle Beale finishing in fourth. Fifth place was not available as only the first four cars were on the lead lap at the finish.
