Other victory lane celebrations were earned<br \/>by Steve Moulton, Kris Watson, Andy Turbovsky, Cory Walker, Carl<br \/>McAlpine, Kyle Gallant, Mike Wilson, Mike Mason, Shadow Folsom, Mika<br \/>Wilson, Shelby Kimball, Robert Paddack, Mike Moore and Bradley<br \/>Bosworth &#8211; twice.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Rowland &lsquo;Rockin JR&rsquo; Robinson, of Steuben, prevailed in Friday&rsquo;s<br \/>night&rsquo;s main event for the Late Model division, and then survived a<br \/>bit of scrutiny in the tech shack after the race which confirmed his<br \/>impressive victory. David Folsom of Skowhegan chased Robinson to the<br \/>checkered flag, with point leader Frank Moulton of Burnham third.<br \/>Dylan Turner and Dave St. Clair rounded out the top five.<\/p>\n<p>Dylan Turner, of Freedom, nailed down his first Late Model feature win<br \/>in wire-to-wire fashion on Saturday&rsquo;s racing card. The teenaged,<br \/>third-generation racer was pressured throughout the race by Friday<br \/>night&rsquo;s winner, Robinson, but the challenger slipped a bit trying to<br \/>find room in the low groove and gave up the runner-up position to<br \/>Moulton in the process. Turner won by a half-dozen car lengths over<br \/>Moulton, Robinson and Folsom, all racing in a tight pack for second<br \/>spot.<\/p>\n<p>Steve Moulton of Burnham prevailed in Friday night&rsquo;s Super Street<br \/>division main event. Kris Watson of Hermon, the division&rsquo;s dominant<br \/>driver during the spring season at Unity, settled for runner-up<br \/>honors, with Liberty&rsquo;s Josh St.Clair grabbing the third-place trophy<br \/>in victory lane. Steve Rackliff of Starks finished in fourth position,<br \/>followed by John Kalel II of Orrington.<\/p>\n<p>Watson bounced back and drove to victory once again in Saturday&rsquo;s<br \/>Super Street headlined. Donnie York of Thorndike battled back from a<br \/>practice crash and multiple pit stops during the feature to finish in<br \/>an impressive second-place at the finish. Kalel finished third, in<br \/>front of Rackliff and Corey Poulin of Augusta.<\/p>\n<p>Cory Walker of New Vineyard could be called chief survivor as well as<br \/>the winner in Friday night&rsquo;s Late Model Pro Four feature race, which<br \/>saw more cars leave the racing surface on the back of a wrecker then<br \/>under their own power. Steve Rackliff of Starks finished in second<br \/>position, with Ben Nile of New Vineyard third. Shane Smith and Jimmy<br \/>Dennis completed the top five. The division was then given Saturday<br \/>off, presumable for both repair and reflection purposes.<\/p>\n<p>Andy Turbovsky came out on top in Friday night&rsquo;s most thrilling race<br \/>for the lead, in the Wildcat feature. Turbovsky spent most of the race<br \/>with Dustin Hubbard of Unity challenging on the outside, and division<br \/>dominator Carl McAlpine of Burnham looking for a lane to get by both<br \/>frontrunners. Turbovsky claimed the checkered flag, with Hubbard and<br \/>McAlpine second and third in the order of finish. Windsor&rsquo;s Tim Hudson<br \/>was fourth, with Ed Sleeper of Vassalboro completing the top-five.<\/p>\n<p>McAlpine returned Saturday and returned to his dominant form in the<br \/>second Wildcat feature of the weekend. Friday night winner Turbovsky<br \/>was the best of the rest, with Hubbard claiming the third-place<br \/>hardware. Sleeper and Hudson finished fourth and fifth, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Kyle Gallant of Veazie scored in Friday night Monsta Mini division<br \/>feature competition. Mike Wilson and Skowhegan youngster Dylan<br \/>Lancaster were second and third, followed by Brad Norris and Tim<br \/>Robinson.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea&rsquo;s Wilson, the defending champion of the division, cruised to<br \/>victory in Saturday&rsquo;s Monsta Mini main event. Alicia Goodwin of<br \/>Clinton picked up her best-ever finish in the class, crossing the line<br \/>in second position. Friday night&rsquo;s winner, Gallant, was credited with<br \/>a third-place run.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Mason of Anson won a wild Friday night Flyin&rsquo; 4 division feature.<br \/>Chelsea&rsquo;s Cody Sleeper was the second-place finisher, with Justin<br \/>Moore of Madison third. John Fortin and Markus Lowe ended up fourth<br \/>and fifth.<\/p>\n<p>Skowhegan&rsquo;s Shadow Folsom drove from the rear to the front of the pack<br \/>to earn the Flyin&rsquo; 4 feature victory on Saturday. Friday winner Mason<br \/>picked up a second-place finish, with Justin Moore of Madison third<br \/>after Zach Audet lost that spot in post-race inspection. That<br \/>disqualification moved Markus Lowe and Cody Sleeper into fourth and<br \/>fifth positions in the official finishing order.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea&rsquo;s Mika Wilson outran the Ladies class in its Friday night<br \/>feature race. Her mom, Carol Wilson, claimed runner-up honors. Shelby<br \/>Kimball of Cornville was third, in front of Alicia Goodwin and Kayla<br \/>Allen.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday&rsquo;s Ladies race featured a thrilling, lead-swapping, lane<br \/>changing battle between Friday night winner Mika Wilson and<br \/>Cornville&rsquo;s Shelby Kimball. In the end Kimball prevailed, with Mika<br \/>Wilson second across the line. Alicia Goodwin beat out Carol Wilson<br \/>for the third-place trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Paddack claimed victory in Saturday night&rsquo;s Enduro race. Henry<br \/>Boudreau of Winterport was second across the line, with George Fernald<br \/>III of Benton third. Darrin Dyer and James Corson rounded out the top<br \/>five.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Moore of Madison was Saturday&rsquo;s Enduro race victor. Fernald III<br \/>claimed second in front of David Folsom, Kenny Lord and Friday<br \/>runner-up Boudreau.<\/p>\n<p>Bradley Bosworth won twice on the weekend in Teen Thunder competition.<br \/>Bosworth was followed under the checkered flag by Brooke Getchell and<br \/>Westley Turner on Friday night. &nbsp;Getchell and Kimball claimed the<br \/>second and third-place trophies behind Bosworth on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>In Fernald Frenzy action on Saturday Justin Moore of Madison claimed<br \/>three wins. Moore was triumphant in the Demo Derby, the Backward Race<br \/>and (with Brittany) the Jack &amp; Jill race. In addition to his Enduro<br \/>race win, Mike Moore took top honors in the Ramp Race and the Longest<br \/>Jump competition. Alicia Goodwin and her co-pilot won the Hot Dog<br \/>Race, while George Fernald III won the bag race with guidance from<br \/>Shadow Folsom.<\/p>\n<p>Unofficial results, Unity Raceway June 26 &amp; 27<\/p>\n<p>Late Model: 1 Dylan Turner, Freedom; 2.
