NAPLES ME (6/16) All three PASS North racing series are back on track this Sunday June 20 at Unity (ME) Raceway, a favorite stop for the Pro All Stars Series’ drivers and fans.

The covered grandstand from a bygone era remains and when drivers stray off the asphalt they can easily find themselves atop a sand bank or in a trackside ditch. But the racing surface, dips, bumps and all, breeds some of the best side by side racing you’ll find anywhere and hardcore race fans never miss a PASS appearance

While Folsom ran with the leaders throughout the event he at one point yielded the pacesetting position to reigning track champion Frank Moulton of Burnham. But Folsom was up to the task and the veteran competitor who first raced at Unity some three decades ago outgunned the young reigning king and drove to victory lane for well-deserved accolades.
