(Hermon, Me) Budweiser night was held at Speedway 95 in Hermon on Saturday, July 26th.
In the Pro-Limited heat race, Brenton Parritt of Steuben suffered mechanical issues and had to leave the race, but hard work on the vehicle between the heat and feature brought Parritt back out for the feature race, where he took the lead early and held it to the checkered flag. Last weeks feature winner Dale Swoboda crossed the line for second, with Duane Seekins of Stockton Springs in third, in the caution-free race.

(Hermon, Me) The Dysart’s Pro-Limited Series ended its 2008 run with its final race, under a full moon, Saturday, July 19th at Maine’s Family fun track, Speedway 95. Steuben’s Brenton Parritt won the series championship, despite a blown engine in the closing laps. Pole sitter Parritt led through 3 cautions until lap 45, when his engine blew, drawing out the caution. Due to a series of caution flags, black flags, and race attrition, three cars remained on the track with 5 laps to go, only two of which were on the lead lap. Both lead lap drivers elected to end the race, due to the oil left behind in the wake of Parritt’s blown engine. Dale Swoboda of Hermon was declared the race winner, with Duane Seekins of Stockton Springs, in Second. Parritt was honored with third place, and Deane Smart of Bradley, although several laps down, was awarded fourth. Parritt’s finish put him in the front of the series points, earning him the championship in the three race series.

(Hermon, Me) Fourth of July weekend was full of surprises, prizes and side-by-side racing at Maine’s Family Fun Track, Speedway 95.
In the 35-lap Sport-four series race, Steve Moulton of Glenburn earned the pole, and led every lap. There were only two cautions; the second came at lap 29, when Brent Fletcher spun out in turn two. What made this caution so crucial to the race is that it put Steve Moulton side-by-side with Mike Hopkins of Hermon, and Hopkins turned what looked like an easy win for Moulton into a 6 lap side-by-side battle. Moulton earned the win, with Hopkins second, and Jason Trundy of Old Town in third.
