Peltier  has a northern connection for this race as he\u2019ll be sponsored by David  \u201cLowbed\u201d  Johnson and Gillis Brothers, Inc., two Massachusetts based companies. <span> <\/span>Peltier  leads the National standings as  well as the PASS South points. Durham North Carolina veteran Jay  Fogleman is  just four markers back from Peltier in the National standings and he\u2019ll  be at  Thompson to try and wrestle the point lead from Peltier. Defending  National  Champion Ben Rowe<span> <\/span>is currently  third in the standings, PASS North point leader Johnny Clark sits <span> <\/span>in  fourth and<span> <\/span>Saint John New Brunswick Canada\u2019s Lonnie  Sommerville is fifth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">All  five drivers have filed early entries for the Thompson stop. The race  awards  PASS North points as well so you can count on seeing the top guns from  throughout New England plus a few surprise entries that will take  advantage of  the Thursday night show to take on the touring pros.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">Derek  Ramstrom will have his super late model ready to challenge and he has to  be  considered one of the favorites. At age eighteen he has already racked  up a ton  of wins and a title at the fast five \u2013 eighths, including a win in the  2009  version of this event. <span> <\/span>Although  Ramstrom has been a regular visitor to Thompson\u2019s victory lane this  season, his  results in PASS North competition have been less than stellar. The Rick  Ramstrom  led team has a single top ten in four starts, but you can bet they\u2019ll  pull out  all the stops to turn their PASS season around Thursday  night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;\">The  PASS Super Late Models will headline Thompson\u2019s exciting Thursday night  show  featuring the speedway\u2019s \u201cSuper Six\u201d racing divisions.
