First Super Late Model score for Ray Christian III at Oxford Plains Speedway<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Oxford, ME \u2013<\/strong>  Ray Christian III raced to his first-ever Oxford Plains Speedway Super Late Model triumph Saturday night, topping the Budweiser Championship Series stock car racing card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christian, of Uncasville, Connecticut, was runner-up to current points leader Curtis Gerry of Waterboro last Saturday night and followed that up with a third-place finish in Sunday\u2019s Pro All Stars Series 150-lapper.  Victory number one made it three straight podium finishes for the Nutmeg State invader at the historic Route 26 oval track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Ryan Deane of Winterport led the race briefly before Christian took command.  Deane raced to an impressive runner-up finish, his sixth top-five run in seven starts thus far in 2019.  Turner\u2019s Shawn Martin spent most of the race in the outside groove and also posted the fastest lap of the race en route to a third-place finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calvin Rose, Jr. of Turner battled Christian for the early lead and set the pace for several laps before eventually crossing the finish line in fourth place.  Strong veteran Tracy Gordon filled out the top-five rundown.  The 50-lap Super Late Model race went caution-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jordan Russell of Norway drove to his first-ever Allen\u2019s Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stock feature race victory, leading all 30 laps to claim the big trophy.  Russell\u2019s score was not without challenge, as 2017 division champ Billy Childs, Jr. spent most of the race right on the rear bumper of Russell\u2019s winning mount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zach Bowie of Turner provided the stiffest test to Russell\u2019s supremacy in this race, claiming runner-up honors ahead of Childs.  Skip Stanley of Oxford outdueled defending champion Matt Dufault of Turner for fourth position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brian Hiscock of Turner wired the Bandits field, leading all 20 laps to win by a comfortable margin over his teammate and step-brother, Tyler Green of Turner.  Oxford\u2019s Chad Wills ended up in third place, followed by Jay\u2019s Dean Jordan and Dustin Salley of Mechanic Falls, the defending division champion and current points leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kyle Glover prevailed in another wild 20-lap main event for the Figure 8 racers.  It was the first win for Glover in the class.  Glover took the lead away from points leader Larry Lizotte and outran all rivals to the checkered flag.  Lizotte was the runner-up, with third-place spoils earned by Greg Durgin of South Paris, bouncing back from early-race misfortune.  Minot\u2019s Eric Hodgkins and Dale Lawrence of Minot rounded out the top five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Owen Stuart of Naples won his second Rookie division main event of the season.  Stuart prevailed in a race-long battle versus point leader Brady Childs of Leeds, who claimed runner-up honors.  Sophie Green of South Paris earned third-place hardware, ahead of Norway\u2019s Maddy Herrick and Cole Binette of Arundel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
