Lonnie Sommerville of Saint John, New Brunswick, started the 2012 PASS North Series season off on the right foot by finishing second in the SouthernMaineMotors.com 150 at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, Maine, on Saturday, May 5. The result marked Sommerville’s fourth straight Top-5 finish at Beech Ridge in the Mulkern Racing No. 48 A.E. McKay Builders Chevrolet dating back to this event last season. Sommerville led on two different occasions early in the race after starting fourth in the 32-car field, but a long green-flag run to the checkered flag kept him just short of the top spot at the finish line.
