Unity – RACE DAY-6/08

The extreme heat didn't stop the Monsta Mini's from hitting the track and putting on a cool show for the Four Cylinder National Qualifier. The twelve competitors showed just how much race car drivers ARE real athletics. Lewis Batchelder returned to the Unity Raceway oval in 2008 blazing a fast pace in the first heat race for a win. The second heat race had Tim Robinson return to his winning ways by taking the win. The feature saw Robinson take an early lead. The first caution flag would fly when a spinning Marcus Lowe would tag the #81 of Dylan Lancasater. The restart saw Robinson and Batchelder go door to door. On lap 7, Batchelder would take the lead. Duane Dunifer, returning from his fine run of last week, was gaining on the two leaders. This run would be short lived as Dunifer retired to the pits with engine problems. Jason Trundy, in his 2008 Unity Raceway debut, would start reeling in the leaders. Batchelder and Robinson would race nose to tail for many laps. Robinson would retake the lead. Batchelder's machine was starting to feel the heat of the day. Robinson would cross the stripe first, with Batchelder a close second. Trudy would take his first trophy of the 2008 season in third. Wiscasset regular, Dylan Lancaster, would finish fourth, with rookie Markus Lowe in fifth.

Unity, ME ? Unity Raceway closed the 2006 racing season in New England 
Sunday. Despite the cold temperatures racers showed up in full force.

Trucks combined for 50 laps of excitement. Winter Harbor?s Justin 
Trombley took advantage of his front row starting spot and never 
looked back leading all 50 laps. Lance Chapman of Fairfield had 
difficulty in lapped traffic while running second and became the meat 
in the sandwich of two back markers. The incident ended Chapman?s day. 
Unity Raceway track champion, Carl McAlpine of Burnham started the 
race almost all the way to the tail of the thirty one car field but 
was able to get into the top five in the caution filled first half of 
the race. After getting into the Top five McAlpine had to pit for a 
flat tire and try to come back up through the field. McAlpine would 
have to settle for third.
