 (Hermon, Me) Kris Watson of Hermon, picked up the win, but it was Sullivan’s Richard Burrill who took the championship in the third and final 50-lap race of the CAM II Racing Fuels Super Street Series. Watson held the front of the field to take the win despite a caution at lap 22, when Travis Beale blew his engine, but Burrill secured the points championship for the series after a lapped car opened up the door for him to pass Mike Overlock of Franklin, and finish the race in the second spot. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lapped traffic, and three-wide racing gummed up the top three in the Pro-Limited race, when at lap 17, Bill Cameron of Shirley who had been battling an ill went down a lap and split the side –by-side race between Steuben’s Brenton Parritt, and Duane Seekins of Stockton Springs. Seekins spun out, and Parritt crashed, and was forced to return to the pit. In the closing laps, Seekins made his way back towards the front to finish second behind Rowland Robinson, Jr. of Steuben, and just ahead of Dale Swoboda of Hermon, who finished in the third spots.<\/div>\n

Rookie Wayne Parritt, Jr. of Steuben made it three in a row, picking up the win in Strictly Street race with nearly a half-track lead over Ellsworth’s Brad Norris. Rookie Travis Poulon started to close in on Norris, but ran out of laps and had to settle for third, in the caution-free race.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Jason Tundy of Old Town dominated the Sport-Four feature, leading every lap and holding onto take the win despite a green-white-checkered finish. Steven Heath of Brownville was second in line at the checkered flag, and defending champion Lewis Batchelder of Dixmont took third.<\/div>\n
