Old Town’s Jason Trundy took off from the pole position in Wednesday night’s Little Enduro feature on a start that was almost called back by head starter Jeff Overlock, and led the event to a lap 14 red flag caused when Dennis Burns #65 caught fire after taking a couple of hard hits. On the restart, Trundy again jumped to the lead and held off Old Town’s Mike Ogden for the final 6 laps to post the win. Ogden drove a hard steady race and finished in the runner up spot for his first top three of the season. Third went to Mike Witham of Milo who also took his first podium finish in the Little Enduros for this season. Donny Blanchard of Orrington and Darren Durrell of Newburgh, both previous winners this season, finished in fourth and fifth respectively.
