AMY HOUDE TAKES LADIES FEATURE AND SERIES TITLE
Amy Houde of Howland started the Ladies 25 lap series race #3 on the pole at Speedway 95 Wednesday night and led all the way to the checkers, winning her second feature in a row and capturing the overall win in the three race series. Danielle Beal of Hampden finished the race in second, but had just recently returned to racing so was not in the race for a series position. Rhonda Wilbur of Hermon was third in the night’s feature and finished second overall in the series. Third in the series but not racing in the feature was Erin Evans of Milo.
Jim Carr Jr. of Clifton was the winner of the Sinclair Towing Service pick- up truck feature, but it was only due to bad luck on the part of Levant’s Jason Haskell. Haskell had fought side by side with Carr for 15 laps, until taking the lead for good on lap 15. On lap 20, as Haskell was rounding turns 3 and 4 heading for his first win of the season, a wheel came loose on his truck, spinning him off the raceway and allowing Carr to pass for the win. Doug Sinclair of Hermon finished in second, followed by Jeff Overlock Jr. of Hermon in third, Dana Harlow of Bucksport in fourth and Haskell finishing in fifth.
