A Fine Memorial: Unity Raceway Readies For ‘300’ Weekend
Track to host 200-lap Late Model event as part of extravaganza
UNITY, Maine — In the spirit of holiday giving, Unity Raceway track operator George Fernald Jr. wanted to give race teams and fans something different. In doing so, he may have created Maine’s newest racing tradition.
Unity will hold its 1st annual Memorial 300 on Friday and Saturday, May 28-29 — an event highlighted by the $3,000-to-win Late Model 200. Also on the card is a 100-lap Wildcat feature offering $1,000 to the winner.
“We’re excited about this weekend,” Fernald said. “We hope it’s the start of a great new holiday tradition here.”

PARRITT WIRES 95 LATE MODEL FEATURE AT SPEEDWAY 95
Brenton Parritt of Steuben took off from the outside pole position in the 35 lap Dysart’s Late Model feature at Speedway 95 Sunday afternoon and held the lead through two restarts to post his first win of the young season. Parritt was challenged by Duane Seekins of Stockton Springs in the early going and on the restarts, but Seekins eventually settled into the second spot, where he finished. It wasn’t an easy second place finish for Seekins, though, as he faced tough competition from both Josh St. Clair of Liberty and Dale Swoboda of Hermon. Both St. Clair and Swoboda were using the inside groove to move past traffic as they both started near the rear of the field due to their top three finishes last week. Swoboda and St. Clair had passed Seekins and were battling for the second spot , Swoboda on the outside and St. Clair on the inside, when they came together on the front stretch on lap 25, eliminating both cars for the remainder of the event. Seekins then regained the second spot and held it to the end. Bangor’s Doug Day finished the race in third, followed by John Kalel II of Orrington in fourth and Nick Kinney of Danforth in fifth. Seekins won the day’s 15 lap qualifier.

Opening Day 2010!
(Wiscasset, ME) Wiscasset Raceway is ready for Opening Day! This Sunday May 23rd Maine’s Center of Speed, The Wiscasset Raceway will kick off our 41st racing season. Come join the fun with racing in the Steel’s Real Rods & Customs Late Model Division, The U.S. Cellular Super Streets, The New England Transmission Strictly Streets, The Twisted Tea Mini-Stocks, and racing in our new Outlaw and Ray Haskell Ford 6 Cylinder Enduro Divisions.
Opening Day 2010 is also Student Day. All students get in free this Sunday at The Wiscasset Raceway. Bring the kids to enjoy some racing and our brand new video arcade. Try our new menu from Hafford’s Restaurant in Waterville featuring hand cut french fries and the soon to be famous Wiscasset Raceway pulled pork sandwich.
We’ll also celebrate and honor our soldiers with “A Salute to the Troops” ceremony from Operation Recognition. Operation Recognition is a non-profit, non-partisan group, founded to deliver a long-overdue Thank-you! to our servicemen and women. They risk their lives for our protection and well-being and we believe they deserve a meaningful gesture of appreciation: a week of R&R in Maine. All of us at The Wiscasset Raceway are proud to support Operation Recognition again in 2010. For more information go to their website at www.operationrecognition.com.
The gates open this Sunday at 11am with racing starting at 2pm. The national anthem will be sung by a very talented local singer, Kait Garland, courtesy of U.S. Cellular in Gardiner.
Join us this Sunday for the 2010 Opening Day at Maine’s Center of Speed, The Wiscasset Raceway! BE THERE!
