TRi-SPORTS is the best place around to find the all the on and off road toys anyone could desire.
Despite some early afternoon rain showers and minor delays we got our fourth race of the year in on Saturday. We had a good turnout of drivers from all over the northeast, with 13 making the trip to southern New Hampshire. The race length was shortened to 30 laps due to weather in the area but that didn’t shorten the excitement at all.
The forecasted bad weather held off for a very exciting NEMST race at Speedway 95, with Justin Trombley taking the win at the track he used to race weekly. Trombley and Cayer both won their heat races but had to start in the back with the tour’s handicapping system. Seventeen cars showed up to race with only 14 taking the green flag in the feature event.
Lee, NH – NASCAR Sprint Cup star Ryan Newman jumped behind the wheel of a
Tim Bertrand-owned NEMA Midget for the 25-lap feature event last Friday
night, and "The Rocketman" didn't disappoint the many fans who came to watch
him race.
Unity, Maine – Rowland ‘JR’ Robinson, Jr. and Dylan Turner scored Late
Model feature race victories in doubleheader weekend action at Unity
Raceway over the weekend. Other victory lane celebrations were earned
by Steve Moulton, Kris Watson, Andy Turbovsky, Cory Walker, Carl
McAlpine, Kyle Gallant, Mike Wilson, Mike Mason, Shadow Folsom, Mika
Wilson, Shelby Kimball, Robert Paddack, Mike Moore and Bradley
Bosworth – twice.
The 2009 NEMST is racing at lee on SATURDAY July 4th in the early program at 2:15. The 2009 season is starting to heat up with only a 5 point spread between first and second place in points.
