\"ACT\"<\/a>Polewarczyk Takes Third Win of Season in People\u2019s United Bank 100<\/strong><\/p>\n

West Haven, VT \u2013 Defending American-Canadian Tour (ACT) Champion Joey Polewarczyk Jr. took his third win of the season in the People\u2019s United Bank 100 at Devil\u2019s Bowl Speedway on Saturday, June 6.<\/p>\n

Hudson, NH\u2019s \u201cJoey Pole\u201d worked his way up from the seventh starting position and got inside Tour point leader Wayne Helliwell Jr. on lap 74 of the 100-lap event. Pole completed the pass a lap later and motored away to win a caution-free race.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou never really expect a race to go caution-free, but with this Tour, it can happen,\u201d Pole said. \u201c100 laps is kind of a short race for us, so our plan was to try and get to the front as quick as we could. But in the beginning I was battling with Travis Stearns and couldn\u2019t really make much ground. So I backed off for a little while, and finally said \u2018let\u2019s try it again\u2019.
\n<\/p>\n

\"Joe<\/a>\u201cThe car really came into itself. I could not have asked for a better car.\u201d<\/p>\n

Helliwell jumped to the lead off the outside pole and led the first 24 laps. Polesitter Nick Sweet got underneath Helliwell for lead on lap 25, but the Dover, NH veteran returned the favor 11 laps later.<\/p>\n

The two remained in tight formation as they negotiated lapped traffic. Sweet ducked inside of Helliwell on multiple occasions, but Helliwell was able to hold him at bay.<\/p>\n

As the two dueled, Pole steadily made his way through the field, eventually catching the lead duo. Pole got around Sweet for second on lap 67 and found his way back to Helliwell\u2019s bumper to set up the winning pass eight laps later.<\/p>\n

Sweet finally got past Helliwell in the final laps to take second. Helliwell ended up third, but unofficially retains the point lead. Josh Masterson, Brad Babb, Dillon Moltz, Emily Packard, Brian Hoar, Kyle Welch, and Brandon Atkins rounded up the top-10.<\/p>\n

Heat race wins went to Hoar, Rowland Robinson Jr., and Babb. Pole and Packard won the consis.<\/p>\n

The ACT Tour will have a week off before returning to action with a 150-lap event at White Mountain Motorsports Park in N. Woodstock, NH on Saturday, June 20. Post time is 5:00pm.<\/p>\n
