Robbins, who has been quick all season, claimed runner-up honors, with four-time track champion Timmy Brackett of Buckfield earning the final trophy in the top class.<\/p>\n<p>Gabe Brown of Center Conway, New Hampshire, like the race winner a 15-year-old Super Late Model rookie, unofficially took over the Budweiser Championship Series Super Late Model points lead with a fourth-place finish.
