Wiscasset2013logoPenfold Captures First Wiscasset Speedway Win of the Season

By Lisa Maguire

Last Saturday was bright and sunny as the racecars hit the track for five exciting feature races that included Super Stock, New England 4-Cylinder Pro Stock, Pro Stock, Thunder 4’s, and the flex race of the week, Outlaw Mini’s. It was Bath Iron Works Day, and employees of BIW received discounted admission prices.

First on the track was the Super Stock class. It was a quick, straightforward twenty-five lap race. The No. 1 driven by Adam Chadbourne, took the pole position. He was followed by the No. 05 driven by James Osmond, and Josh Bailey in the No. 2. Chadbourne surged off the finish line, but Osmond was behind him, dogging his heels. The No. 3 driven by Bobby Mesimer came up from the back of the pack to take third and challenged Osmond for position. The three raced in well- matched cars, but Chadbourne kept his lead through the remainder of the race. Chadbourne raced across the finish line with Osmond only a second behind. However, Chadbourne did not pass post-race inspection. Osmond took the win, making this his second win at Wiscasset this season. Mesimer, who ran the fastest lap in the race, placed second. Dan Nessmith driving the No. 48 finished third.

It was a bright, warm evening at Wiscasset Speedway last Saturday. The Amsoil Nelcar Legends made their third appearance out of four scheduled this season. Also on the roster were Strictly Street, Late Model Sportsman, and an Outlaw Mini race. There were some new faces in victory lane, and their fans were there to cheer them all on.

First up was the flex race of the week, the Amsoil Nelcar Legends twenty-five lap feature. Coming into the race Ryan Hammar driving the No. 2 was points leader. Behind him in second place in point position was Mathew Bourgoine. Only ten points separated the two leaders. Prior to race time, Hammar commented, “Pretty much up to me and Mat (points). We are more on the line. We are focusing on our setups better. But, we are friends, and respectful of each other on the track. If you have the fastest car, you have the fastest car.”
