SCOTT ENDS CROSBY’S WIN STREAK AT 5 WITH SPEEDWAY 95 WIN

Carmel’s Jeremy Scott led the first 2 laps of the Street’s Landscaping Series 30 lap feature for the Coca-Cola Sport-Fours Saturday night at Speedway until he was passed by Donny Silva of Hudson on lap 3. Scott remained in second place to the checkers, fighting off Jason Trundy of Winterport and Andrew Crosby of Hermon as the three raced nose to tail all race long. Trundy ran behind Crosby until lap 25, when he snuck by on the inside after pinning Crosby behind a lapped car. Trundy then challenged Scott to the flag, but was unable to make the pass. In post-race inspection, Silva, who crossed the finish line first, was disqualified for being 120 pounds under the weight minimum. Scott was declared the winner, with Trundy taking second and Crosby third. Chris Carroll of Alton placed fourth, with Clinton’s Tim Robinson in fifth.

Outlaw Super Series speedway 95 results
By Nicholas Huff

May 23rd – New motivation this week would see some guys stepping up their game to win Outlaw race #2 at Speedway 95 this season. Series director, Derek Mingo wanted to see some new winners in victory lane, setting a $100 bounty for anyone that could dethrone 7 in a row winner, carrying from last season, Kris Watson. Duane Seekins and Shawn Hamel were originally planned to set the front row, but problems in hot laps put Hamel pitside before the initial green. This would move Joe Legere up to the outside pole for the 50 lap main event, and he would grab the lead from lap 1 and set the pace for the first 9 circuits. Ricky Burgess Jr,the heat 2 winner, would then make the pass for the top spot and look to be the one to beat as he started to put a sizeable distance on the pack. He would lead to lap 36 when he brought out the 3rd yellow of the night, blowing up in turn 3 and pulling down onto the infield. The restart would see 7 in a row winner, Kris Watson and Joey Doyon out front battling side by side, with Watson leading laps 37 thru 40 by a nose. Doyon would clear Watson for control on lap 41 until Joe Legere spun in turn 3 on lap 42, bouncing off Kris Matchett and bringing out the final yellow. Watson had one last chance to defend his series dominance, but Doyon was relentless once again on the restart, using up all the inside that Watson would allow, and making slight contact on the way to his first win, and collecting the $100 bounty that was set over Kris Watson. Watson was 2nd, and Kris Matchett 3rd. Dale Swoboda took a happy 4th, as he subbed in for Dynomite Dylan Street in the #30, and Mike Overlock rounded out the top 5.

Andrew McLaughlin of Harrington won the Dysart’s Late Model feature at Speedway 95 Saturday night after a side by side battle with 2014 Late Model Champion Brenton Parritt that ended on lap 15 when Parritt slowed and headed for the pit. McLaughlin then easily rode to victory with 13 year old rookie Dylan Street of Old Town coming home second in his first ride in the speedway’s top division. Bradley Smart of Bradley finished third, and Parritt came back out on the final lap of the race to finish fourth. Only four cars started the 25 lap event that was reduced from the scheduled 40 due to the low car count.

In the Darling’s Ford Sportsman, Shane Tatro of Holden took the lead for good on the 21st lap of the 25 lap feature when Kris Matchett of Skowhegan, who had been swapping the lead with Tatro all race long, suddenly slowed and left the race with mechanical issues. Dean Clements of Brooks moved up to second and stayed on Tatro’s bumper for the final four laps, placing second at the checkers. Rookie Trey Brown of Winterport finished third in his first outing in the division with Matchett getting credit for a fourth place finish.
