JEFF BURGESS BECOMES 8TH DIFFERENT LATE MODEL WINNER IN WILD NIGHT AT WISCASSET
Saturday night at Wiscasset Raceway had all the look and feel of show you might get on a hot full moon night in mid August. There was plenty of action on the track; a few tempers on the rise and the busiest members of the track staff may have been the emergency crew. On the positive side of things Jeff Burgess of Oakland raced his way to the 30 lap Late Model feature win, making him the 8th different winner in nine races in Wiscasset’s top division. Other winners on the night included Jeremy Glasier of Appleton in the Super Streets; Steve Peirpont of Cushing in the Strictly Streets; Mike Wilson of Chelsea in the Stock Mini’s; Marje Albert of Chelsea in the Ladies Division; Nick Hinckley of Wiscasset in the Teen Division; and Francis Bernard Jr of Howland in the Quirk Super Mini Cup Series. Four of the weekly division winners picked up their first win of the year in the show sponsored by Norm’s Used Cars of Wiscasset.
