The Northeast Mini Stock Tour made its one and only appearance this year in Maine at the Wiscasset Speedway last Saturday night. Under the bright lights, thirty-one cars raced in an action packed fifty lap feature.
Starting the lineup were heat winners Mike Mason in an Acura Integra No. 51, the No. 33 driven by Matt Sonnhalter, and Shawn Swallow driving the No. 04. In what proved to be a close-quarter race, leader changes at the start were swift. Sonnhalter drifted back in the pack. Car No. 53 driven by Glen Thomas wove through traffic and took second place, George Fortin in his No. 9. advanced from sixth place to third.
Five laps into the race, a caution was thrown when Mason slowed on the front stretch, then went off the track on turn one. Swallow became race leader. Thomas and Fortin were close behind, looking for the lead. This track order did not last long as Thomas was unable to keep up, and Fortin passed him in lap six. No. 88 driven by Emerson Cayer was proving to be a force on the field, and advanced to fifth from his eleventh place start.

Darin Ripley Returns to Wiscasset Speedway and Triumphs
By Lisa Maguire
It was a bright sunny day at the Wiscasset Speedway this past Saturday. Race fans came out in force to enjoy the beautiful weather and cheer for their favorite drivers. On the schedule this week was the division two racing group which included: Outlaw Mini’s, Mini Trucks, Late Model Sportsman, and Strictly Streets. The flex race of the week was a 100 lap Enduro race.
When the Late Model Sportsmen came onto the track, there was plenty of action in the 35 lap feature. No. 14, Bryan Robbins took the pole, and found himself in an immediate battle to retain his position. Right behind him was Darin Ripley driving No. 09 and Steve Reno in the No. 8. During heavy racing, Ripley watched for an opportunity to pass to Robbins. During lap seven, his chance came when Robbins got loose on turn four. Ripley roared up beside Robbins and passed on the outside, taking the lead. Reno slipped to third and found himself holding off TJ Watson in the No. 04. (more…)
