Joey Doiron: PASS North Series
Beech Ridge Motor Speedway
SCARBOROUGH, Maine – Joey Doiron of Berwick, Maine, finished fifth in the PASS North Series Southern Maine Motors.com 150 at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, Maine, on Saturday, July 9. It was the best finish of the season for the reigning PASS North Series Rookie of the Year and came at his home track. Doiron started 14th, but he worked his way into the Top-10 after just a handful of laps. He moved into the fifth spot on Lap 80 and was fourth just five laps later. Doiron was closing in on third place when his engine weakened, however, but he was able to hold on for fifth at the checkered flag. It will be a quick turnaround for Doiron and the rest of the PASS North teams, as he will compete at Lee USA Speedway’s Bastille 200 this coming Tuesday, July 12.

Turner claimed runner-up honors in one of the most exciting main events of the season, while Burgess had to settle for third-place hardware. Burnham’s Brian Whiney crossed the line in fourth position, followed by the winner’s father, David Folsom I of Skowhegan. Deuce Folsom and Corey Walker of Strong posted heat race victories. (more…)
