 JOHNNY CLARK SWEEPS WEEKEND AT WISCASSET RACEWAY

Turns out Johnny Clark’s win Saturday night in the 50 lap feature for the Clark’s Car Crushing Prostocks was just the warm-up act for Sunday afternoon’s PASS Wiscasset 150. The 2-time defending PASS Super Late Model champ took the lead from Rick Martin and then held off 5-time Wiscasset Prostock champ Scott Chubbuck through the second half to grab yet another win at the track that has produced some of him most memorable victories. Said the Clark in victory lane “We were joking last night that we won the ‘Busch race’, now lets go win the ‘Cup race’” referring to his weekend sweep. Sunday afternoon’s victory, in front of a near capacity crowd, capped off a busy double-header weekend at “Maine’s Center of Speed” including the return of the Pro All Stars Series to the track for the first time in four years. Clark acknowledged the emergence of Chubbuck and the Hight Motorsports team as a force to be reckoned with especially at Wiscasset.
