Unity, ME — Frank Moulton of Burnham will receive championship honors in the top-tier Late Model division for the third consecutive season, topping the list of champions and other notable local racers to be honored at the annual Unity Raceway Awards Banquet, scheduled for Friday night, November 19 at the VFW in Winslow, Maine.
