The Lee  contingent will be led by defending champ and current point leader Wayne Helliwell,  Jr. of Dover, NH. Helliwell has already scored two wins in the first two events  at Lee in 2010 and is currently leading the Ford Blue Oval Cup Challenge. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;\">ACT favorites  include past Lee winners Joey Polewarczyk, Jr., who won the 2008 NH Gov Cup, and Jean-Paul Cyr, winner of a 2005 Lee event.
