NAPLES ME (9/28) Andy Shaw passed under the checkers first in the PASS Mod season finale at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway to claim his fifth win of the 2010 season and the 2010 PASS Mod Championship.

Youth Movement On The Monster Mile – Moffitt wins at Dover; Truex wraps up 2nd straight K&N East title
DOVER, Del. — It was a pair of teenagers who conquered the “Monster Mile” like veterans Friday.
Eighteen-year-old Brett Moffitt picked up his second straight win at Dover International Speedway in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East season finale Friday in the Sunoco 150. Ryan Truex, 18, clinched his second-consecutive championship simply by taking the green-flag and capped off his title run with a third-place finish.
Moffitt took advantage of a mechanical issue that sidelined his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Max Gresham on the first of two green-white-checkered attempts to inherit the lead, and then drove away from Corey LaJoie, 18, on the final restart to pick up his second win of the season and fourth of his career.

Shaw Posts Top-10 At Dover; Concludes Season With Sixth Place Finish In Points
Dover, DE (September 25, 2010): DJ Shaw recovered from a late-race spin to finish the Sunoco 150 at Dover International Speedway in tenth. Shaw led 13 laps of the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East season finale and was a solid contender in the top-five after an early race pit strategy paid big dividends. The finish was enough to move the 20-year-old driver from ninth to sixth in the points.
“Finishing sixth is a success for us. We wanted a top-five in the points and we would have been pretty close to it if I had not gotten spun out,” said Shaw. “But overall, it’s a good end to the season.”
Shaw acclimated himself with the famed Monster Mile in the two practice sessions on Thursday afternoon and put himself in the list of top-15 fastest drivers despite never having run the track before. In qualifying, Shaw posted a lap of 24.383 seconds (147.644 mph) behind the wheel of his No. 60 Precision JLM Ford and earned a 17th place starting position.
