“Airborne is a special place for my family and me,” said Nolin, 21. “I grew up watching races and working on my father’s cars there as a kid, and to get my first win there, especially in the Spring Green, meant a lot.”<\/p>\n
Nolin joined a stout list of former Spring Green winners, including legendary drivers Bobby and Beaver Dragon, Dave Dion, Jean-Paul Cabana, Robbie Crouch, Claude Leclerc, and Junior Hanley, and modern-day stars Brian Hoar, Phil Scott, Jean-Paul Cyr, and Brent Dragon.

“Brian Hoar was one of my heroes growing up, and to be in a group of winners with someone like him is a big deal to me,” said Nolin. “That kind of history makes Airborne a very special place. Plus, it’s a hard track to figure out, and it’s very rewarding to have all the pieces together to win there. I just hope my team and I can get it right like we did last year.”<\/p>\n
Nolin’s Mountain Air Systems\/Champ 101.3 #78 Chevrolet will be challenged by former winners Bobby Dragon and nephew Brent Dragon, Crouch, Leclerc, and seven-time and defending ACT Late Model Tour Champion Cyr, as well as current point leader Scott Payea, third-place driver John Donahue, Canadian stars Patrick Laperle and Donald Theetge, New Hampshire’s Randy Potter and Joey Polewarczyk, Jr., and Maine’s Ron Henry and Glen Luce.<\/p>\n
