Wiscasset Raceway took the action under the lights Saturday night and while the thermometer was dropping, the early season action was heating up. All six weekly divisions were on the schedule along with the NELCAR Legends and the Teen Divisions taking center stage with a 25 lap main event. Intermittent light rain forced the postponement of the Teen feature, but all other features were run as scheduled.

Wiscasset Raceway officially ushered in the start of the 2007 Maine racing season on Saturday afternoon as Delwin Philbrick Well Drilling of Sidney presented Opening Day at the state’s fastest track. The large crowd that packed the stands was greeted by blue skies and temps near 70, making most feel like the one week delay to the start of the season was worth the wait. In the end it was a great day for Chelsea’s Maurice Young and Sidney’s Chris Thorne. Young turned in a dominant win in the 75 lap Strictly Street co-main event, leading the final 70 laps.
