Both new and returning winners made it to Saturday night magic at White Mountain Motorsports Park.

Quinny Welch won the 1764 Sports Bar & Grill Late Model victory lane podium, while Sidney and Sicard took the win.

The New England Auto Racers (NEAR) brought their tough old racers over the Kancamagus and up Interstate 93 to take on the White Mountain highbanks as part of their yearly doubleheader with Thunder Road on Thursday. The condensed fifteen lap feature saw Dave Blanchard in his 1979 Chevy Malibu take the checkers for the Sportsman while Mike Kugler took home the top Modified honors.

Makenzi Sicard and Kiptyn Aldrich kicked off feature racing for the Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kids Division before Sicard and Cameron Beattie made contact on lap one to call the early caution. Back under green, Clayton Houghton took command of the field while Madison Potter and Gracen Gorham duked it out for second behind him. Potter and Gorham made contact coming off turn four in the final lap, leaving Clayton Houghton to take down his first Kids Division win over Evan Folsom and Chloe Doyle at the line.

McKennedy and Meservey Battle for MRS Seacoast 75 Victory

The pilots of the Modified Racing Series invaded Lee USA Speedway for the Seacoast 75 on Friday night with Jon McKennedy on the pole position. The Chelmsford, Massachusetts Modified master put the power down from the drop of the green flag as defending series champion Brett Meservey gave chase. McKennedy, with thousands of laps logged at the 3/8-mile oval, played cat and mouse with Meservey to the very end of the caution free event to steal away the victory with Joey Jarvis taking home third behind Meservey.

The Ridge Runners once again proved to be the action of the evening with third-place starter Josh Hodgdon taking advantage of Carl Gagnon’s back-slide from the outside pole. Hodgdon made it to the lead by lap five while behind him 2nd through 5th ran nose-to-tail around the inside groove of Lee USA Speedway. Tyler Fish led Derek McKeen, Kyle Dumas and sub-driver Jimmy Renfrew Jr. in a freight train until Dumas and Renfrew made moves to the front. In the end, Josh Hodgdon took down his first win of the season over Fish and Dumas at the line.
