Lee, NH – Former champion Wayne Helliwell, Jr. became the second repeat
winner of the season in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Late Models at
Lee USA Speedway last Friday night, scoring a convincing win in the 50-lap
main event.
The NEMST has successfully completed to second race of seven points races for the 2009 season. Emerson Cayer made it 2 for 2 in a thrilling finish. Shawn Sinclair started on the pole after Ricky Porter elected to take the rear of the field to run for the Mainely Motorsports Hard Charger award. Shawn was in control of the race for the first 10 circuits, leading Loren Smith Jr. and Loren Smith Sr. Roger Ducharme made the long haul again from Foster, RI to have a strong first half showing while falling back to the seventh position in the finshing order.
Unity, Maine – Stock car racing action scheduled for Friday night (June 12) at Unity Raceway was postponed due to continuing heavy rain and wet grounds.
This weekend is the 2nd race for the 2009 NEMST and will be held at the beautiful ¼ mile White Mountain Motorsports Park in North Woodstock, NH. The first race last weekend in Canaan was pretty intense with good racing battles all through the field. There are a lot more cars planning to make the shorter drive to WMMP and should put on a great show. It will really be a wonder to see what these cars can put down for times on the high banked oval.

Lee, NH (June 8, 2009) – – Before there was stardom and 13 wins on the
NASCAR Sprint Cup circuit, the biggest win of his successful career, the
2008 Daytona 500, and before becoming one of only 19 drivers to have
recorded at least one win in each of NASCAR's top three Series – Sprint Cup,
Nationwide and Truck , Ryan Newman was a grass roots racer. An open-wheel
driver with a passion to win. The "Rocketman" as he's known, did, many
times.
