PAVE-TEK MOTORSPORTS: Trevor Sanborn Gets Call To Drive In Oxford 250
Trevor Sanborn Gets His Shot At Oxford 250
Pave-Tek Motorsports Crew Chief Takes Driver’s Seat This Weekend
ARUNDEL, Maine – When Bill Stilphen came calling, Trevor Sanborn was all ears.
Sanborn, of Parsonsfield, Maine, will take his second shot at Maine’s premier racing event when he drives for Stilphen’s Pave-Tek Motorsports team in the 40th annual TD Bank Oxford 250 at Oxford Plains Speedway in Oxford, Maine, on Sunday, July 21. Sanborn last competed in the event in 2006, when he finished sixth.
Incidentally, that year was the last time the race was contested under Super Late Model rules. After a six-year hiatus, the race returns to a PASS North Series sanction this weekend.
“It’s probably the biggest race for anyone in Maine,” Sanborn said. “Truthfully, what short track race is better? I know there’s the Snowball Derby and the Winchester 400, but the Oxford 250 is still the Oxford 250.

He knows that it certainly won’t be any easier this time around, but he’s still looking forward to being part of the annual midsummer classic.
