Modified Racing Series reigning champion, and current point’s leader Jon McKennedy, has filed his Super Modified entry for this Saturday’s Racing Against Breast Cancer, at Seekonk Speedway. Driving the # 79 Dunigan Super Modified, Jon will return to ISMA, after a two year absence, where he was the 2005 Rookie of the Year. McKennedy will return to the track that he first competed at in a Super Modified. “Seekonk is a great race track and I always enjoy racing there. This should be a lot of fun and it supports a great cause”, said Jon from his home in Chelmsford, Ma. McKennedy’s 2010 Modified Racing Series credentials include two victories; one each at Lee USA Speedway and The Waterford Speedbowl. He enjoys a 17 point lead with three races too go. Jon will be joined by the Whelan Modified Series current point’s leader Bobby Santos, III, of Franklin, Ma, driving the Clyde Booth # 61 Super Modified. Bobby’s 2010 Whelan Modified season has three wins; one each at Stafford Springs, Thompson, and Martinsville, Virginia. Bobby enjoys a 7 point lead with two races remaining on the Whelan Northern Tour. “Having two Bay State drivers who each lead the two New England area Modified Series, driving Super Modifieds, at the only Massachusetts paved oval, is very exciting. These two premier drivers, along with NASCAR 2008 Truck Series Champion Johnny Benson, Jr., reining ISMA Champion Chris Perley, and current ISMA points leader Mike Lichty, lead a long list of great Super Modified competitors from the United States and Canada, who are set to challenge the “Cement Palace” after a 5 year absence for a great night of racing in support of a great cause”, said Race Promoter Gary Sagar of Kraze Korlacki Speed Equipment, Inc. Also filing an entry is the 2010 “Come back Kid”, Bobby Fitzpatrick of Stoughton, Ma. In June 2002, Bobby was involved in a near fatal automobile accident which left him in a coma for 6 months, and ultimately resulting in a below knee right leg amputation in 2007. Not wanting to quit racing, Bobby was presented with a challenge of driving a Super Modified with a prosthetic leg, designed by Hangers, Inc. and a throttle pedal designed by HAH Competition Pedals, who now are heavily involved in research and development of this venture. Bobby’s goal is to pave the way for people with similar circumstances. He will be driving the #109 “Children’s Hospital-Pints for Half Pints” Super Modified. Also on the race card is a 35 Lap Small Block Super Modified Race, 75 Lap Northeast Mini Stock Tour Race, and the 25 Lap New England Powder-Puff Championship Race with Krysten Knievel. Gates open at 2, Racing Begins at 5pm. Rain Date is Sunday October 3rd. For the latest information visit www. krazespeedequipment.com or www. seekonkspeedway.com

Kraze Korlacki Speed Equipment’s Breast Cancer Awareness night featuring ISMA Supers next at Seekonk Speedway.
For the first time since June 25, 2005, the fastest short track cars in the world are set to invade The Action Track of the East. On Saturday, October 2, the ISMA Supers will compete in a 100 lap event at Seekonk Speedway.
Kraze Korlacki Speed Equipment, located in Case Avenue in Seekonk has stepped up to the plate, and put together a schedule of events, in a Race Against Breast Cancer. October has been named Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Gary Sagar wanted to do his part in helping create awareness.
Former NASCAR Camping World Truck Champion, Johnny Benson has been signed to drive one of Brad Lichty’s cars for this event, marking the first time that Benson has been at the famous 1/3 mile oval. “I have never seen Seekonk Speedway, but I am aware of its rich racing history. Many of the ISMA teams tell me it is one of their favorite tracks. I am excited about competing at the famed “Cement Palace”, which should be a lot of fun while supporting a great cause in the fight against Breast Cancer”, said Benson from his race shop in Charlotte.
Former Seekonk winners include Liquid Lou Cicconi, Bentley Warren, Russ Wood, Rick Wentworth and 3-time winner, Chris Perley. Once added to the ISMA schedule, this became a “Look Forward To” by many of the ISMA competitors. Turing laps in the 11.0 second range, they have competed with the NEMA Midgets as speed record holders at the famed 1/3 mile oval. Unofficially, Jen Chesbro holds the record, at 10.893. This was reached during an open practice session back in 2003.

This was reached during an open practice session back in 2003.
One of the events on the docket is the Powder Puff Enduro. What better way to honor women who survive this disease, than to have an event featuring ladies behind the wheel. It’s just another way to show support and help put the word out. In fact, once word had spread about this event, there was a call from the Chicago IL. area, with a young lady who wanted to show her support. Krysten Knievel has pledged her support for this event, and will be coming out to compete in the Enduro race. This is my first attempt at competing in any type of auto racing which should be a lot of fun while supporting a cause which has affected many people I know”, said Krysten by telephone from Chicago. In addition to competing in the powder-puff race, Krysten will also be singing the National Anthem during opening ceremonies. Kristen’s first experiences singing the National Anthem began at a young age singing at opening ceremonies for her daredevil father Kaptain Robbie Knievel. An original “Evel Knievel” custom chopper ’ will be on display during the event.
The Small Block Supermodifieds will also be on hand for a 35 lap main event. This is the first time these cars will compete south of NH. Regularly competing at the Lee USA Speedway, this is a super opportunity for the division to gain a larger fan base, and keep to the Super theme of the evening. The main difference between the 350 Supers and the ISMA cars are the engines and tires. They run a small block engine with a carburetor, vs. the big block fuel injected monsters of the ISMA Supers. They also run smaller tires than their cousins.
The New England Mini Stock Tour will make their first appearance at Seekonk, in a 75 lap Championship event. They have welcomed the competitors of Thompson Speedway’s Mini Stock class to compete, in a 4 cylinder event for the ages. They will crown their 2010 champion on this night. If enough cars warrant, there will be a non-qualifiers race to cap off the night.
In addition to the racing, there will be other activities available for the fans. Jackie, the Pink Fire Truck from the Coventry Central Firefighters Union will be on hand to help support the event, which is rumored to also act as a pace vehicle for the night. There will be helicopter rides for the folks that want to get a look at South Eastern Massachusetts from a birds’ eye view. John Ferreira of J & J Materials will be piloting from 2 – 4:30pm, for $30.00 per person. All proceeds will be donated to the Making Strides against Breast Cancer fund. Inflicting Ink Traveling Tattoo will have their 78 ½ foot mobile tattoo studio stationed inside the gates of Seekonk Speedway on Saturday, October 2nd from 2-6pm. Inflicting Ink will not be tattooing during the event but they have designed special breast cancer t-shirts where $3.00 from every t-shirt sale will benefit Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. An autograph session for all competitors will be part of the pre-race festivities as well. Gates open at 2pm; with the qualifying starting at 5pm. General Admission is $25.00 per adult, with $5.00 of each adult ticket going to Making Strides, a Breast Cancer support organization. Cat Country 98.1 will also be on hand to play your favorite Country Music.

Join us in supporting Breast Cancer Awareness with the fastest short track cars in the world, Saturday, October 2nd, at Seekonk Speedway. It’s like flying F-14 Fighter Jets in the Hoosier Dome.

Flanagan, Ivory, Donovan, Dion, and Maher pick up Fast Friday wins.
Warwick Whizz Ed Flanagan, Jr. held off Fall River’s John Robidoux at the finish line for his second win of the season in Pure Stocks. Robidoux has been trying to catch Flanagan, who holds fifth place in the division, where Robidoux stands sixth. Lakeville’s Jamie Burch roared in behind the leaders with all top 3 cars finishing on the same second. Mark Boisvert of Uxbridge and Griswold, CT’s Steve Larose rounded out the top 5. Flanagan had started sixth on the field, while Robidoux had to work his way up from seventeenth.
Swansea’s Mark Miranda started on the pole and outran Westporter Jeremy Lambert at the outset. Lambert and Kent Hopkins of Taunton got loose in the first turn, but came out in second and third behind Miranda. Robidoux, meanwhile, spent his first lap negotiating his way up from eighteenth to twelfth in that first, single circuit.
Into lap 2, Miranda held a 4 car lead over the field with Lambert and Hopkins trailing, followed by Burch, Flanagan, Dirk Eykelhoff of Oakdale CT. and Fairhavenite John Frias.
By lap 7, Flanagan had moved up to third, behind Miranda and Lambert. Miranda continued to move away from the rest of the field, holding an 8-car advantage by lap 10. Flanagan was all over Lambert’s rear bumper.
North Dighton driver Chris Lima and Tim Demarderosian of Bristol got together in turn 2, bringing out the caution. Both drove away from the spin, but the field came back together, pulling Miranda back to the pack. On the restart, Miranda and Lambert battled door-to-door briefly, but Lambert went back to the front. Flanagan then got under Lambert and secured second and two laps later, on the 17th circuit, edged by Miranda for the lead. Robidoux had caught the leaders and passed Lambert into second and got briefly into Flanagan’s side. But the latter made a good save and continued at the front.
Flanagan forged a 4-car lead over Robidoux, Miranda, Burch and Lambert.
Lap 14 saw Lambert and Warwick’s Vinnie Pangelinan get into each other in turn for, creating a great deal of smoke and bringing out the yellow flag.
Flanagan lined up on the pole with Robidoux on his shoulder. Miranda and Burch made up the second row, with Swansea’s Bill Chouinard and Larose behind them. Division leader Nick Uhrig of Warwick was lurking just outside the top 10 in the eleventh spot, but had been finding tough going.
Flanagan nailed the lead again with Robidoux on his bumper but a turn one mass crash involved Kent Hopkins, Demarderosian, Dough Benoit, Dirk Eykelhoff and Chris Lima.
After an extensive cleanup, the field set up for the second restart on the lap. Flanagan edged Robidoux through turns 1 and 2, and then took the lead at the stripe. On the next lap, Burch was trying to work under Robidoux for second with Larose and Boisvert trailing. Behind them, Earl Curtin and Miranda were door-to-door as were Uhrig and Chouinard.
Into lap 23, with two to go, Flanagan led Robidoux and Burch. Into the penultimate circuit, Robidoux was working hard on Flanagan. A tap in turn 3 of the final circuit loosened Flanagan but he held it straight and thundered down the finishing straight to the victory by ¾ of a car over Robidoux.
Curtin, of West Warwick was sixth, followed by Miranda, Uhrig, and Chouinard. Frias rounded out the top 10.
Chris Ivory, on his first attempt among Seekonk’s Sport Four competitors, scored a decisive win in a growing field of competitors. The Waterford visitor claimed the lead going into lap 5 and was unassailable for the remainder of the race.
Cranston driver Robert Henry started on the pole with Vincent Arregado on his shoulder. Henry nabbed the lead on the second turn but Arregado got sideways in turn three and Warwick’s Ken Silva got into his side as a field of cars piled in.
The restart had Henry on the pole again with Coventry driver Taylor Therrien on his shoulder. Arthur Phillips was low in the second row and Ivory sat the outside, after avoiding the pileup.
Henry went ahead at the restart, but Therrien jumped to the front. Ivory came around into second and began to chase her down on lap 4. Ivory was sticking low and went under Therrien into the lad at the stripe on the next circuit. They led Arthur Phillips, Silva, and last week’s winner, Ed Gould of Warwick in Lap 7. On lap 9, Ivory had already increased his lead to 5 cars, and there was another 8 lengths between second and third.
By lap 13, Ivory was beginning to lap the field and had a comfortable 10-car lead over Therrien. It was another 3 cars back to Phillips. Another circuit gave Ivory a ¼-lap lead. But Therrien got into Arregado as she attempted to go under as she was lapping him, sending her up into the turn two wall on her drivers’ side. She was able to restart the car and drive it to the pits.

But Therrien got into Arregado as she attempted to go under as she was lapping him, sending her up into the turn two wall on her drivers’ side. She was able to restart the car and drive it to the pits.
On the restart, Ivory was away like a rocket. Gould came around Phillips for second as Phillips got high and to the outside, allowing David Westgate, Jr, to move into third.
Ivory led by four cars in lap 17 and continued to pull away as the field became a pace line. He crossed the stripe at the finish ahead of Gould by 4 lengths. Westgate finished third, just ahead of Silva. Phillips rounded out the top 5. Bickford finished sixth, followed by Henry, Therrien and Arregado.
Westgate’s finish edges him two points closer to Silva in the championship points, where they stand 1-2. However, the lead stands in the area of 20 points, making the last Fast Friday competition a mountainous climb for Westgate to overtake Silva.
Kaitlyn Donovan led all but the first three of 25 laps in the SYRA 750 feature race, en route to tightening the contest between her and the division leader, David Hutchins, Jr. of Somerset. The Waterford driver started the outside pole against Holliston’s Nate Bubello, who (like Donovan) was looking for a first win on the season. He finished seven second back as Donovan built a half-track lead in the closing laps. Last week’s winner, Adam Swift of Fairhaven, claimed third. Division leader Hutchins suffered bearing problems and retired after 4 laps, in fourth place, while Plymouth’s Ashley Kuhn was sidelined after just three circuits.
At the outset, Bubello ran to the front as Donovan fell back. Swift got loose in turn 4. Bubello led the field into lap 2 over Donovan, Hutchins, Swift and Kuhn. On the second circuit, Hutchins car suddenly cut to the right in turn 3 and came to a stop in 4. He was able to get moving again and went around the oval to turn 2, where he stopped with smoke trailing from his right rear. He took the car off the track, came back out and stalled again in turn 4 and returned to the pits.
Bubello and Donovan faced off again and Bubello grabbed the lead with Donovan falling back in turn 2. Swift went under Bubello for the lead on lap 3, but spun between the third and fourth turns in front of Kuhn, who caught him on the driver’s door, and brought out a red flag and the ambulance. The EMT’s were waved off after a check of Swift by track stewards and both cars went to the pits.
Swift returned for the restart, but Kuhn’s night was ended. Donovan, Bubello and Swift lined up for the restart and Donovan came quickly off the pole to the lead, but the starter called a false start, bringing the field back. Hutchins returned to the track. On the second attempt, Donovan went to the lead again over Bubello. Swift and Hutchins followed. But Hutchins’ car smoked through turn two on the lap and then again on the following circuit. He retired from the race after four laps were complete, but the extra lap had moved him one lap ahead of Kuhn for race positioning.
The lap 5 restart saw Donovan go into the lead over Bubello again. Swift came alongside Bubello and the two began to dice over second spot, exchanging the lead several times over the next few laps. By lap 9, Donovan was nursing a straightaway lead.
Bubello assumed the second spot for good on lap 17 and by lap 19, Donovan was nearly a half lap ahead and still increasing the distance with each lap.
The final 5 laps were a parade to the finish with Donovan coming home to the checkered flag for the first time in the season.
Taunton driver Branden Dion brought his SYRA 600 car home four and a half seconds ahead of his nearest competitor for a convincing Fast Fridays victory in the late season and his second win on the season. Chase Belcher of West Wareham, who led off from the pole was runnerup.
Division leader Nicholas Lascuola lost the nose of his car in an early-race crash. He was able to return to the racing, but was severely hampered by the damage and was lapped twice as the racing unwound. The Brockton native finished the race in tenth position.
Belcher went to the lead at the start with outside polesitter Curtis Rolando of Newport on his tail. But Tyler Boudreau spun in turn two, collecting Waterford’s Shelby Donovan and Portsmouth’s Kara Carpenter. Carpenter retired to the pits and was done for the evening. Boudreau was able to continue and Donovan, after a push start, rejoined the field.
Again on the restart, Belcher was on the pole. But Jason Enos of Assonet had taken over the outside. Rolando started low on the second row with Tylar Nailor of Marston Mills on his shoulder. Dion and Providence’s Willy Sanchez were row three.
On the restart, Donovan and Lascuola collided between turns 1 and 2, and all the body metal on Lascuola’s nose was shorn off, leaving roll cage and underbody. The crash was severe enough to bring out a red flag and the ambulance for a check on the drivers. Lascuola’s car was taken back to the pit area and returned without the nose for the restart.
Again, Belcher went to the front on the green, this time battling with Dion, who got a nose past at the line. Donovan spun but was able to keep going, allowing the race to continue. By lap 5, Dion was showing a long lead and Donovan had been lapped. Dion was being pursued by Sanchez, Belcher and Rolando. By lap 7, Enos was battling Rolando for fourth.
David Lougee, Jr. spun on the front stretch, coming to rest in the infield in front of the starter. Dion again took the lead on the lap 6 restart and was not headed again. Belcher, Enos and Rolando pursued. The field stayed in an extended pace line with no positions changed.
On the final lap, however, Rolando and Sanchez were able to pass Enos into third and fourth, relegating Enos to fifth.
Louie Maher topped the field of V6 Mini Modifieds for a close win over Chris Kuebler in a shortened field of 5 competitors. Maher had started scratch on the field.
Eric Vilandre started at the pole with Wayne Brooks on the outside of the front row. Kuebler and Keith Caruso were the second rank, with Maher behind them.
Kuebler came on quickly at the starting line and ran around Vilandre and Brooks into the lead as the green flag fell on the field. Maher made the big leap from fifth to second on the start and Caruso followed him into third.
Three laps in, Maher attempted to go low under Kuebler and they ran nerf bar-to-nerf bar with Caruso giving chase. Vilandre and Brooks trailed the field distantly.
Maher took over the lead with Caruso attempting to pass Kuebler on the high side. There was another wheel-to-wheel duel between them before Kuebler edged back into second. He then put himself on Maher’s rear bumper. The lead trio had a 7 car lead on Brooks and Vilandre.
Maher began to encounter lapped traffic on lap 10 and into lap 11. Kuebler was still pestering his rear bumper and on lap 12, he was trying again to get underneath for the lead. Maher held him off for a lap and a half, running high, and edged out to a lead.
Kuebler began a tactic of turning down on the straights to get under Maher, but the latter continued to hold him off. A sudden dash at the finish line had Kuebler almost through to the win, but Maher held on for the victory by a fender. Caruso came around for the third spot.
Sunday, September 19, 2010
Sculy, Martin, DeGasparre, & NewComb win the battle. Astle, Vanasse, Martin & Axon win the wars.
Westport’s Radical Rick Martin had an evening for himself, Saturday, coming on strong in his number 14 pickup to take it all. He won both heat and feature and made his commanding divisional lead stick for the championship over North Attleboro’s Dylan Estrella. In fact, winning the heat race, in which Estrella finished sixth, gave him enough points to haul down the championship before starting his motor for the feature race.
Into the feature, Martin started fifth on the field and within 5 laps was at the front and stayed there for the remaining 20 laps. Dan Leach, from North Dighton, gave Martin a good chase after Martin took the lead from him, all the way to the checkers, but Martin was not to be denied. Mike Cavallaro pulled a big third on the field, followed by Ed Gannon, Lenny guy and Estrella. Ted Berube, Michael Ronhock, Jariah Roderick and Ronny Cornell rounded out the top ten.
Seekonk’s Billy Clarke led from the pole through the first lap before Leach got underneath and into the lead from his spot low on the second row. Martin gunned through right behind Leach and Clarke was stuck on the outside and a parade was marching by beneath him. Estrella and Cornell got by while Gannon and Cavallaro were door-to-door behind them.
Quincy’s Michelle Dumas looped on lap four in the fourth turn, bringing out a caution which restarted with Leach on the pole and Martin on his shoulder. Leach was quick at the strip, gaining a nose lead, but Martin battled back and edged ahead, taking the lead to himself coming out of the fourth turn. Another lap and Barry Shaw was around in turn 4 with Bob Andreozzi spinning to avoid.
Martin had the pole with Leach on his shoulder for the restart. Estrella was immediately behind Martin with Fall Riverite Cornell on his shoulder. Gannon (also from Fall River) and Seekonk Cavallaro were row 3. As Martin edged out on the restart, Cavallaro suddenly went around Cornell, putting the second row 3 wide: Cornell was in a sandwich between Estrella on his low side and Cavallaro. Cornell fell back; Cavallaro passed Estrella into third by a nose.
Into lap 10, Martin led Leach, Cavallaro, Estrella, Gannon and Berube. Behind them, Guy and Ronhock were dicing for position. Guy finally made his way clear into seventh. Cavallaro went around to begin battling Leach for second. Behind them, Estrella and Gannon were door-to-door with Cornell in hot pursuit. By lap 20, the race had shaken out to Martin, Leach, Cavallaro, Gannon, Estrella and Cornell.
On the next lap, Cornell began to try around Estrella with Guy bothering him from behind. Martin was walking away with a 6-car lead. Leach, Cavallaro and Gannon followed and Guy was studying Estrella’s rear bumper.
Martin flashed under the checkers 1.293 seconds ahead of Leach, followed by Cavallaro and Gannon. Guy made a dash on the final straight to the strip and nipped Estrella at the line, by .068 of a second.
Paul Newcomb from Plymouth, MA, grabbed his first Street Stock win in the 25-lap feature. Attleboro driver Steve Axon iced the lead he had taken from Ryan Lineham a week earlier with a fifth place finish, giving him the championship in the division. Scott Serydynski, from West Greenwich, finished a spot ahead of Axon, but could not overcome Axon’s 15 point lead going into the evening. Lineham, from Coventry, was .462 second behind Newcomb, but couldn’t gain enough points over Axon to reclaim the points lead.
Newcomb started behind polesitter Patrick Delaney of Fall River. Delaney jumped out ahead of outside pole Gerard Berthelette of North Smithfield, and Delaney followed him through. Fifth place starter Rey Lovelace of Cranston also went under Berthelette before the latter could settle into the low groove, ahead of Johnston’s Crystal Serydynski.
On the third lap, Craig Pianka went around between turns one and two and spun into the infield. Newcomb had pushed his nose past Delaney, and was rewarded the pole on the restart with Delaney on the high side. Lovelace and Berthelette were the second row.
Newcomb went to the lead and Lovelace got under Delaney into second as the green fell. Serydynski and Michael Lema followed through. By lap six, Newcomb held the lead over Lovelace and Serydynski had moved into third. Berthelette held fourth with Lema Behind him and Scott Serydynski had moved into sixth. Delaney, experiencing mechanical problems, retired to the pits. However, Lineham, who had started eighth before slipping back to 10th early on, was beginning to march forward and was in sixth.
At lap 10, Newcomb continued to lead Lovelace, Crystal Serydynski, Lema, Scott Serydynski and Lineham. Berthelette, Mike Mitchell and Ken Kohler followed. By lap 15, Newcomb had an 8-car lead over Lovelace, who in turn had Scott Serydynski all over his rear bumper. Lineham, Lema and Crystal Serydynski trailed. Caution followed, with Walter Carpenter’s car dying as he tried to nurse it out the pit exit.
Newcomb had many problems on the lap 15 restart: Lovelace on his shoulder, Serydynski behind him, and Lineham on the outside. Crystal followed her uncle and Lema was behind Lineham. Berthelette was low in the next row, but Axon was beginning to be felt and had the outside. It was a hungry wolf pack that charged out on Newcomb’s heels, and he did well to outrun them. Scott was able to get under Lovelace and into second. Lineham shortly followed to third, leaving Lovelace in fourth
Lap 17 saw Dick Cavallaro’s car die at the stripe, bringing out another caution. He drove it to the pits after getting it started. Now Scott was on Newcomb’s shoulder and Lineham was behind him. Lovelace and Lema were row two and Crystal shared row 3 with Axon. Newcomb had a nose on Scott as they crossed the stripe and Lineham on his bumper. Lema took fourth from Lovelace.
Into lap 20, Newcomb was nursing his lead over Scott, Lineham and Lema. Axon and Mitchell had edged past Lovelace who had Berthelette and Crystal on his bumper. Lineham and Lema squeezed past Scott over the next two laps.
The top 5 finishers had been established by lap 22: Newcomb, Lineham, Lema, Scott Serydynski and Axon. Mitchell, last season’s champion, Lovelace and Crystal followed.
At the end, the top six crossed as above. Crystal Serydynski edged Lovelace for seventh.
Berthelette and Rob Murray rounded out the top 10.
Pawtucket’s Gerry DeGasparre, Jr., won his third feature of the season, giving the four-time late model champ a lift in an up-and-down season while Ryan Vanasse of Warwick was propelled by his dominant lead in the division to the championship despite a twelfth place finish. That makes it two crowns in a row for Vanasse.
DeGasparre took control with six of the thirty laps remaining, moving up cautiously from his tenth starting position. Four drivers shared the lead, with Bob Pelland III holding the edge at 12 laps. Kevin Folan started at the front and held two laps before Pelland took over, then two laps at the midpoint of the race. Colbey Fournier led 8 laps before he yielded to DeGasparre. Pelland finished behind the winner, followed by Tyler Thompson, Jimmy Rosenfield and Dennis Stange. Fournier finished sixth.
Folan, of Attleboro, led off from the pole with Pelland on his right hand. At the green, Folan nabbed the lead, but two laps in, Robert Hussey from Wellfleet and Bridgewater driver Jimmy Rosenfield got into each other on the back stretch and spun to the infield.
On the restart, Pelland jumped to a lead, but went early and the start was called back. On the next attempt, Pelland grabbed and held on to the lead as Dennis Stange moved outside Folan. The Athol driver got loose and fell back, leaving Folan in second. The field began to string out.
Lap 7 saw Pelland leading Folan, Stange, Fournier, Somerset driver Kyle Casper and Mat Breault of Acushnet. DeGasparre was seventh and coming forward with Vanasse on his bumper. Rosenfield got together with Hussey in lap 9, setting a lap 4 spin and bringing out the caution.
Pelland and Folan led it off with Stange and Fournier at their backs. They ran door-to-door with Pelland taking the lead in turn 4. Stange got under Folan into second. Fournier suddenly lost speed and in the scramble, Rosenfield and DeGasparre got together up toward the turn 3 wall. Rosenfield pulled away, but DeGasparre was stuck in the turn.
This brought up a lap 10 restart. Stange, from the outside pole, nosed ahead of Pelland, winding it up on the outside, but Pelland put on a surge to get the lead back in turn 4. The start was disallowed, and called back for another restart. This time, the leaders staged a door-to-door battle with Pelland taking an edge at the stripe, then closing the door in turn four of lap 12. At midlap, Fall River’s John Paiva looped but was able to keep going without caution.
Pelland was holding a 1-car lead over Stange when he got sideways in turn 4. Stange bounced off his driver’s side and then Breault, Vanasse, and Casper piled in. Casper came out the worst with his nose crumpled back. Vanasse had a tire down and both went to the pits for emergency repair. Stange, Breault, Pelland and Mike Cavallaro, returning from the pits for an unrelated problem, lined up at the tail end. Vanasse and Casper remained in the pits.
Folan was on the pole again, with Fournier outside. Tyler Thompson was low in the second row and DeGasparre, having moved back to the front, was on the high side. Hussey and Rosenfield made up the third row.
Folan nabbed the lead at the green and Fournier settled in behind him. Thompson and DeGasparre diced it up for third position with Hussey in fifth, followed by Rosenfield. But Folan got sideways but a tap from Fournier, passing under, straightened the car out while Fournier went to the lead. Caution came out again on lap 19, as Rosenfield went around at the stripe.
Fournier had Thompson on his outside with DeGasparre and Hussey behind him. Breault and Folan followed. The start was called back as Thompson was quick on the trigger. The lined up a second time and again it was called back for a bad start. Officials sent Thompson to the rear for jumping the restart twice, which began a loud protest, including a crewmember climbing the fence behind the starter’s stand to argue with the starters.
Now DeGasparre was starting alongside Fournier and he edged ahead on the green, but Folan spun in turn four, again negating the lap. On the fourth restart, Fournier and DeGasparre went at it, door-to-door, but Kyle DeSouza went around bringing out a 5th restart on the lap.
Fournier nosed ahead of DeGasparre, and Hussey went in underneath at the same time Breault tried around the outside, creating a 3-wide. DeGasparre split the trio, going into second, leaving Hussey to Battle Breault.
DeGasparre began to hunt Fournier down and on lap 23; the latter drifted up the track and had to hold on. DeGasparre went into the lead, with Hussey, Breault and Pelland following. Fournier settled into fifth but couldn’t settle into the groove and Rosenfield and Thompson went underneath.
By the 27th circuit, DeGasparre was leading Hussey, Breault, Pelland and Rosenfield. Breault tapped Hussey, and Hussey looped, sending him to the rear and officials determined that Breault should join him for the assist.
Three laps remaining, and it became a parade to the finish, with DeGasparre taking a 2.97 second lead over Pelland, Thompson, Rosenfield and Stange. Rounding out the top 10 were Stange, Fournier, DeSouza, Folan, Paiva and Hussey. Vanasse finished two laps down, due to repair in the pits after the lap 12 accident. Still, it was not enough to deny his second championship in as many seasons.
Tom Scully, Jr. won his first feature of the season in a tight duel with Rick Martin to end the Pro Stock division’s championship season. Meanwhile, Fred Astle started at the rear of the 23 car field after failing the ride height inspection after finishing fourth in his heat race. His fourth place finish right behind his closest competitor, David Darling, insured his fifth championship, tying him with perennial champ, Vinny Annarummo. It also gave him 3 in a row, which ties him for consecutive titles with Norm Holden.
Scully started fifth on the field, with Martin seventh. They worked their way through the field for 13 laps, while Kevin Casper, then Dick Houlihan led the race, and broke into first and second together on lap 14. Martin tailed Scully, looking for an opportunity to be the first driver in Seekonk history to win two features on the same night (he had already won the Sport Trucks division on the evening and claimed the division championship there.) But the wily Scully was not about to let his opportunity for a win on the season slip from his grasp. Darling, Astle and Houlihan finished out the top five.
Kevin Casper of Somerset led off at the pole with Gardner hot shoe Phil Meany on the outside. Jeramee Lillie and Houlihan made up the second row; Rob Murphy and Scully were row 3. They came away from the green flag in that order, with Martin chasing Scully. By lap five, Scully was past Murphy. On the next lap, Meany went around entering turn 2 and Lillie went to the pits. Ray Parent, back with a newly purchased car, had picked up Mike Brightman’s left front fender under his rear axle and couldn’t get it dislodged. He retired to the pits for assistance.
The lap 6 restart had Casper and Houly facing off with Scully and Murphy now on the second row. Martin was behind Scully, and Darling had come up to start sixth from his original slot in tenth place.
Houlihan edged up on Casper at the start, and then the two went door-to-door. Scully went underneath to make the front grid a 3-wide. Casper got crossed up and fell back while Houlihan went to the front, towing Scully along with Murphy and Martin in pursuit.
Mike Parks, visiting from Monadnock Speedway, and Ryan Vanasse got together out of turn 2 and went up to the backstretch wall for a hard hit. After an extended period, both went off on the hooks of wreckers. Lowell’s Bill Antonellis, another visitor readying himself for the Venditti Memorial Race in October was off on the eighth lap. At this point, Darling, in pursuit of the championship, had moved up to seventh. Astle, driving very aggressively, had forged his way to tenth, three cars back.
Houlihan was on the pole for the lap 8 restart, with Scully on his shoulder. Casper and Martin were behind them with Murphy and Jake Vanada in the third grid. As the field queued up for the restart, smoke began to issue from under Antonellis’ hood and he stopped at the pit entrance for firemen to extinguish a small fire under the hood. He then retired to the pits.
On the restart, Lillie spun in turn two, bringing the field back for another go at the green. The second try got the field moving and Houly and Scully went at it door-to-door. Houlihan took an edge in turn 3 and Scully got loose. Houlihan took the lead with Scully and Martin on his tail.
Scully got his nose underneath and the two were again side-by-side. In the pack, Astle was dueling with Dean Pettey, who was back at The Konk after a long absence. Scully was into the lead on lap 14. At the same time, Darling was working around Casper into fifth. Astle claimed 8th spot on lap 16. Into lap 20, Scully led Martin, followed by Houlihan, Darling, Casper and Vanada. Mike Brightman was on the move up from a 16th place start and into seventh behind Vanada. Behind him, Astle was dueling Pettey for position.
Petty dived under Brightman and Astle went high, to make a 3-wide. Pettey backed out behind Brightman while Astle went forward into sixth behind Vanada. Into lap 26, the field behind Scully was Rick Martin, Darling, Houlihan, Vanada and Astle. On the 32nd circuit, Astle went to the outside on Vanada and had the lead by the time they hit the stripe. Going into lap 35, Pettey spun on the backstretch, bringing out the caution.
Scully edged out on Martin on the restart, and Darling dived underneath to try to take second. Astle was working underneath Houlihan. Paul Reichert looped on the backstretch in lap 38, bringing out another caution, and a restart with three laps to the checkers.
Scully and Martin were still the front row; now Astle joined Darling in the second echelon. Houlihan and Brightman were followed by Ken Spencer and Vanada.
Scully held on to the lead with Martin falling back by half a car. Darling held on underneath Martin with Astle and Houlihan behind. The final laps unwound with the top 5 holding position all the way to the flag and Scully had his win on the season. Scully, Martin, Darling and Astle all finished on the same second, the pack was that close together. Spencer, Ray Parent, Mike Brightman, Vanada and Rob Murphy rounded out the top 10.

Mike Ronhock picks up first Truck win. DeMoura tops Street Stocks. Astle makes it 4 in a row and DeGasparre comes back to victory.
Fred Astle seemingly can’t be stopped this late in the season. Saturday, he hauled down his fourth consecutive win and fifth overall. And a fifth place finish by his nearest competitor, Dave Darling, eased pressure on Astle for season’s end championship points with but one race remaining in the season.
Six drivers held the lead through the race with Ryan Vanasse holding an edge in laps led at 16. Astle took over on Lap 29, after a bump from Rick Martin sent Darling into a spin. Astle led the remaining laps of the 40-circuit race with a hungry Jake Vanada pestering him to the finish line. Vanada finished seconds, with Tom Scully, Jr., Rob Murphy and Darling filling out the top five.
Bridgewater’s John Dabrowski started the pole and went to the lead, but outside polesitter Phil Meany fought it out through the first circuit and edged to the front. He took over the lead on lap 2 with Jeramee Lillie on his tail. Dabrowski experienced problems and began going backwards through the pack. By lap 5, Meany held the lead over Lillie, rick martin, Ryan Vanasse and Dick Houlihan.
Lap 7 saw Bobby Tripp go around off turn 4, bringing out a restart. Meany and Lillie were the front of the grid with Martin and Vanasse behind, followed by Houlihan and Kevin Casper. Off the start, Lillie began edging ahead and shot the door as they went into lap 8. But Rob Murphy was around off turn 4 and into the infield for another caution. The lap seven restart saw Lillie on the pole with Meany on his shoulder. Vanasse and Martin started behind them.
Vanasse went through to the lead on the start and Meany looped on the next lap in turn two, collecting a number of cars. The next green saw Vanasse and Lillie door to door for a lap before Vanasse went to the lead again and Kevin Casper went underneath into second as Lillie got hung outside.
Back in the pack, Astle and Darling were dicing it up, after starting twelfth and eleventh, respectively. By lap 10, Darling held sixth with Astle on his tail. They traded places on lap 11 and then Astle went through to fourth spot and Darling sixth with Lillie holding the interim spot.
Vanasse continued to hold the lead, chased by Casper. Into lap 13, Vanasse led Casper, Martin, Astle, Darling, Vanada, Lillie and Scully in a pace line. Darling went under Astle into fourth. Martin, running third, took second from Casper on lap 16, and then Darling moved past. Two laps later, Astle had gotten by. Vanasse was showing a 7-car lead over Martin when Scully got into the back of Lillie and Lillie spun, bringing out the caution.
The restart had Martin on Vanasse’s shoulder with Astle and Darling behind them. Casper and Vanada were the third row. Martin was trying to work Vanasse’s outside on the restart until Tripp was around in turn on, collecting Meany.
Martin now had the pole with Vanasse on his shoulder. Darling and Astle were behind them. Vanasse went to the front on two consecutive restarts, only to be called back for jumping ahead too early. The third start had Martin leaping to the lead and Darling getting underneath Vanasse. Astle followed on Darling’s tail. Though hung on the outside, Vanasse wouldn’t give up and battled Astle, but began to fall back.
Lap 23 saw Vanasse outside Casper, and contact was made with Casper’s right front into Vanasse’s left rear. They separated and retired to the pits under caution to get new rubber.
The new starting grid had Martin on the pole with Darling on his outside. Astle and Vanada came next, followed by Scully and Kenny Spencer. Again, Darling came out very fast into a big lead, but the start was called back again. Second time, Martin went to the lead and Astle went under Darling to battle for the second spot.
But Casper got into Lillie, sending him around and Ron Smith got involved.
Again, Martin and Darling took aim from the front row. It was an even start with Darling working hard on the outside. He went in front at the stripe but Martin made contact in turn two and Darling spun, bringing yet another caution. Darling went to the rear as an accident car and Martin for the assist on Darling’s spin. Both drivers had to be warned to the rear and went grudgingly. This placed Astle on the pole for the lap 29 restart with Vanada on the outside. Scully and Spencer made up the second row with Rob Murphy and Mike Brightman behind them.
Astle made for the front and had the door closed by turn3. Darling restarted in twelfth, but began to determinedly move toward the front with Martin on his tail. He had made it to sixth place by lap 35.
Vanada hounded Astle the final 10 laps but could not get past the rear bumper. Scully maintained third place with Murphy and Brightman in tow. With three to go, Darling made his way past Brightman for fifth.
At the finish, it was Astle with a .773 second lead over Vanada to take the Don Dionne Memorial Trophy. The award named after one of the original Pro Stock drivers at Seekonk Speedway, winner of the first Pro Stock championship and two of the first three. Dionne had died in the past year.
Four time late model champ Gerry DeGasparre, Jr. hauled down his second victory of the season with a hard-fought charge to the checkers over Tyler Thompson. The Pawtucket ace got past Thompson, of Somerset, with 10 laps remaining in the 30-lap challenge. Rocket Ryan Vanasse kept his hold on the points lead with a solid third place finish. The Warwick pilot’s lead over Somerset’s Kyle Casper extended when the latter finished six spots further back, in ninth place. DeGasparre’s win edged him closer to Casper for the runnerup spot in the overall points chase.
Matt Breault, of Acushnet, Mass, nailed down the fourth spot, and Jimmy Rosenfield, returning after an extended absence, rounded out the top five.
Bob Pelland III led off from the pole with Dennis Stange on the outside. Thompson started behind Pelland with Bob Hussey on his shoulder. Acushnet’s Kyle DeSouza and DeGasparre made up the third row.
Stange’s car got squirrelly at the green, and Pelland charged into the lead. Thompson inserted his nose under Stange, pinning the Athol driver on the outside. Hussey and DeSouza dueled for third, while Casper moved up from his seventh starting slot to enter combat with DeGasparre. Rosenfield and Breault were battling behind them.
Seven laps in, Pelland led Thompson, and Stange, with a four car gap back to Casper and DeGasparre and another gap to the rest of the field, led by Hussey and Breault. But John Paiva went around on lap 10, bringing out the caution.
Pelland had Thompson on his shoulder for the restart; Stange and Casper were behind them, followed by DeGasparre and Hussey. DeSouza was in and out of the pits during the caution. Thompson pushed ahead on the restart and Pelland worked to hold him off through the lap, but Thompson got a full car’s lead into turn one of the eleventh lap and shut the door. At the same time, Casper moved past Stange into fourth. Breault got past Hussey into sixth, and Rosenfield spring boarded from tenth into seventh. As they crossed into lap 12, Thompson led, with Pelland on his bumper, Casper, Stange, DeGasparre, Breault and Rosenfield. Three laps later, Thompson had extended his lead over Pelland to 3 cars.
Pelland and the pursuing Casper made contact coming out of turn 4 on the nineteenth circuit and Pelland got up into the frontstretch wall, scrubbing his right side most of its length. Casper managed to bring it to a stop in turn two with a flat, probably cut down in the contact. The crash ended Pelland’s night on lap 19; Casper pitted for new rubber and returned at the rear of the pack.
The restart had Thompson with DeGasparre on his outside at the front with Breault and Rosenfield behind them. Stange and Vanasse were the third row. Thompson and DeGasparre went door-to-door for a lap, until Thompson got loose and DeGasparre charged into the lead. Entering the 22nd circuit, DeGasparre led Thompson, Breault, Vanasse, Rosenfield and Stange. Vanasse attempted the pass on Breault on the next go-around although Breault made it difficult to get by.
By lap 25, with just 5 to go, DeGasparre had a 6 car lead over Thompson, while Breault and Vanasse were still dueling over third. Vanasse was high and clear into third on lap 28 and shut the door on Breault into 29.
DeGasparre won going away, with a 1.151 second edge over Thompson. Vanasse was .407 behind Thompson.
Cape Codder Michael Ronhock and Fall River’s Ron Cornell logged 25 out of 25 of the lead laps in the Sport Trucks race Saturday night, but the Mashpee Mauler led the latter half of the race through the checkers to garner his first-ever victory on the asphalt oval. The win tightens Ronhock up, closing on fourth place-holder, New Bedford’s Lenny Guy, and just a handful of points between them indicate a tight run for the spot in next week’s season-ender. Ronhock had come into the fray in fifth place, but was the only member of the elite five who did not have a win on the season. Twenty-five laps later, another member had joined the exclusive club.
Seekonk’s Michael Cavallaro nearly had his fifth win of the season, but Ronhock held him off in a wild charge at the finish line for a .040 second victory. Ed Gannon from Fall River nabbed a close third, while Somersetter Ted B Berube and Dan Leach from North Dighton filled out the top 5.
Cornell shot off the pole, taking the lead over outside polesitter, Jariah Roderick. After Portsmouth, Rhode Islander Rob Andreozzi tried under Roderick to nab second, and was held off, the East Taunton driver settled in behind Cornell and Andreozzi filled in the third slot. But entering lap 3, Quincy driver Michelle Dumas went around in turn four, bringing out the caution.
Cornell and Roderick lined up again, and Cornell went to the front with Andreozzi making the underneath move as before. Dane Saritelli move up under Roderick and they began a duel for third, while behind them Ted Berube and Rick Martin were jousting for fifth.
As the field headed for lap 4, Andreozzi got into the infield in turn 4 and looped his truck with his wheels spinning and sent up a huge cloud of dust that obscured vision in the turn. Out of the cloud came Dumas and Guy, already thrown together by the low visibility. Guy was able to continue on the track, albeit with the underside of his bed bent up to the frame. Dumas ended up in the infield on the front stretch with a cold motor. She had to be lifted from the field on the hook, finishing 21 laps down.
Ronhock had taken the two laps to move from fifth to second and started on Cornell’s shoulder after a long pause for track crew to sweep the silt from the racing surface in the turn. Cornell pulled the lead at the green and Ronhock pursued, with Roderick on his tail. Saritelli, Berube, Martin, Gannon and Dan Leach poured in behind them. Again, Berube and Martin were contesting position as were Gannon and Leach behind them. Martin slipped back a bit, and Gannon moved up under him, but he used a burst of speed to come even with Berube again.
By lap 8, Saritelli was up alongside Roderick, and Martin was behind him.
Andreozzi was off the track into the dirt once again on lap 11, this time in turn two, bringing out the caution and another restart. Cornell and Ronhock faced off again, with Saritelli and Roderick behind. Martin and Berube were paired, as were Gannon and Leach.
Cornell and Ronhock battled off the line; Saritelli moved to third while Martin and Roderick contested for fourth. Ronhock got by into the lead on the second turn of lap 13 with Saritelli, Martin, Gannon, Guy and Roderick lined up behind.
Cavallaro had been stuck among the rear of the pack until lap 16. He passed Leach, who had fallen back after the early contests into ninth, then edged past Estrella and Berube into 7th on lap 20. By this time, Ronhock was enjoying an 8-car lead over Cornell and Saritelli. Gannon had third, and Martin and Guy were duking it out for fourth. Cavallaro tried a three-wide move around them and succeeded in getting by Martin on the next lap. Next time around he got past guy and Saritelli into third.
Ronhock had a 2.3 second lead into lap 23. Saritelli and Guy were contesting when Saritelli went around, collecting Guy. Saritelli was able to continue, but the caution had already flown, setting up for a restart on lap 23, which would be a green-white-checkered finish. Ronhock and Cornell again made up the front row with Gannon and the surging Cavallaro behind them. Berube and Leach pursued from the third row.
Ronhock forged to the lead with Gannon getting under Cornell into second. Cavallaro was three wide again and coming on. Gannon bumped Ronhock from behind, but a great save kept the five truck going straight. Cavallaro came around the three-wide, taking second from Gannon in the last lap, then ran up alongside Ronhock in turn three of the white flag lap. It was a hard run to the finish, with Cavallaro gaining the front hubcap on Ronhock at the line, unable to overtake completely. Ronhock held on through the grit for the .040 second win.
Chris DeMoura out of North Dighton, Mass, ran from his outside pole starting position into the lead on lap 5, then spent 17 laps holding of a hungry Michael Lema for his first Street Stock victory of the season. DeMoura had to hold Lema off through a host of caution restarts before hanging tough for Lema’s final surge on the last straight to the finish. Sparky Arsenault and Paul Newcomb both finished within the same second as the leader, creating a very close finish. Steve Axon’s fifth place appears to have propelled him into the division lead over Ryan Lineham.
Lineham’s championship came into jeopardy in the second heat for the Streeters. A lap 8 tangle with Gerard Berthelette and Rey Negley sent him nose-first into the turn 3 wall, next to the entrance ramp from the pits, ending the night for his car. Lineham got his nose into Berthelette’s rear quarter on the backstretch and the two slowed. Negley had his nose into Lineham’s rear bumper and was pushing down the straight. When Berthelette broke away, Lineham’s nose went up the track and the push from behind sent him straight into the wall for a very hard hit. The crash brought out a red flag and the ambulance. After a few minutes, Lineham was able to walk to the ambulance under his own power for the ride back to the pits. His car was wreckered from the track. He was able to return for the feature after renumbering teammate Walter Carpenter’s 09 car to his 19 to continue to pursue the championship.
Fall Riverite Patrick Delaney started the pole with DeMoura on his shoulder. At the green, Lema shot up to make a 3-wide sandwich at the front, but backed out, settling into third behind Delaney and DeMoura, though he was contested by Tyler Jarvenpaa. The Taunton hot shoe would be a factor throughout the contest.
Five laps in, DeMoura had worked his way past Delaney. Lema held third, and Sparky Arsenault had move into fourth from his starting spot in seventh. Paul Newcomb followed with Scott Serydynski on his tail. Lineham was trying to get up from the back of the pack. Through his wheel slots, his front brake rotors could be seen glowing cherry red from the hard usage that they were being subjected to.
Chuck Taylor, Jr. looped his car between turns one and two on the twelfth circuit, bringing out a caution. DeMoura and Lema faced off at the front with Arsenault and Newcomb in the second row. Delaney and Axon followed. Ken Bamford and Brian Spillane were the fourth row. Serydynski had slipped back to ninth, just behind Brian Spillane. It took three tries to get the restart, with Jarvenpaa going around in turn two and Taylor in turn one on the first attempt. Ken Kohler rotated in the starting box on the second attempt.
Finally, a good start had DeMoura and Lema battling while behind them, Arsenault and Newcomb contested third; Beaulieu and Axon for fifth and Bamford and Spillane behind them. When things finally resolved, DeMoura was again leading Lema on the backstretch in lap 14. Next lap saw Jarvenpaa around in turn two.
On the restart, Rey Lovelace looped before the starters’ box. Officials penalized Negley for the assist and both Negley and Lovelace protested to the turn 3 trackside officials. When the protest went unresolved, the pair retired to the pits.
DeMoura went back to the lead again, with Arsenault trying under Lema for second. Newcomb and Beaulieu worked each other for fourth. By lap 20, the field had lined out with DeMoura leading Lema, followed by Arsenault, Newcomb and Axon fighting it out with Beaulieu.
Lap 22 saw Lema trying under DeMoura again, but had the door shut on him. Ever persistent, Lema made a final dash at the line but was nipped by the leader, DeMoura coming in ahead by .160 seconds. Arsenault took third, .465 back and Newcomb fourth at .891; the top four all finishing within the same second. Fifth went to Axon.
Lineham, in the unfamiliar car, managed a 17th place finish, allowing Axon to ease by in the points spread for yearend championships. Final competition for the point’s championships will be held next week.
Six drivers held the lead through the race with Ryan Vanasse holding an edge in laps led at 16. Astle took over on Lap 29, after a bump from Rick Martin sent Darling into a spin. Astle led the remaining laps of the 40-circuit race with a hungry Jake Vanada pestering him to the finish line. Vanada finished seconds, with Tom Scully, Jr., Rob Murphy and Darling filling out the top five.
Bridgewater’s John Dabrowski started the pole and went to the lead, but outside polesitter Phil Meany fought it out through the first circuit and edged to the front. He took over the lead on lap 2 with Jeramee Lillie on his tail. Dabrowski experienced problems and began going backwards through the pack. By lap 5, Meany held the lead over Lillie, rick martin, Ryan Vanasse and Dick Houlihan.
Lap 7 saw Bobby Tripp go around off turn 4, bringing out a restart. Meany and Lillie were the front of the grid with Martin and Vanasse behind, followed by Houlihan and Kevin Casper. Off the start, Lillie began edging ahead and shot the door as they went into lap 8. But Rob Murphy was around off turn 4 and into the infield for another caution. The lap seven restart saw Lillie on the pole with Meany on his shoulder. Vanasse and Martin started behind them.
Vanasse went through to the lead on the start and Meany looped on the next lap in turn two, collecting a number of cars. The next green saw Vanasse and Lillie door to door for a lap before Vanasse went to the lead again and Kevin Casper went underneath into second as Lillie got hung outside.
Back in the pack, Astle and Darling were dicing it up, after starting twelfth and eleventh, respectively. By lap 10, Darling held sixth with Astle on his tail. They traded places on lap 11 and then Astle went through to fourth spot and Darling sixth with Lillie holding the interim spot.
Vanasse continued to hold the lead, chased by Casper. Into lap 13, Vanasse led Casper, Martin, Astle, Darling, Vanada, Lillie and Scully in a pace line. Darling went under Astle into fourth. Martin, running third, took second from Casper on lap 16, and then Darling moved past. Two laps later, Astle had gotten by. Vanasse was showing a 7-car lead over Martin when Scully got into the back of Lillie and Lillie spun, bringing out the caution.
The restart had Martin on Vanasse’s shoulder with Astle and Darling behind them. Casper and Vanada were the third row. Martin was trying to work Vanasse’s outside on the restart until Tripp was around in turn on, collecting Meany.
Martin now had the pole with Vanasse on his shoulder. Darling and Astle were behind them. Vanasse went to the front on two consecutive restarts, only to be called back for jumping ahead too early. The third start had Martin leaping to the lead and Darling getting underneath Vanasse. Astle followed on Darling’s tail. Though hung on the outside, Vanasse wouldn’t give up and battled Astle, but began to fall back.
Lap 23 saw Vanasse outside Casper, and contact was made with Casper’s right front into Vanasse’s left rear. They separated and retired to the pits under caution to get new rubber.
The new starting grid had Martin on the pole with Darling on his outside. Astle and Vanada came next, followed by Scully and Kenny Spencer. Again, Darling came out very fast into a big lead, but the start was called back again. Second time, Martin went to the lead and Astle went under Darling to battle for the second spot.
But Casper got into Lillie, sending him around and Ron Smith got involved.
Again, Martin and Darling took aim from the front row. It was an even start with Darling working hard on the outside. He went in front at the stripe but Martin made contact in turn two and Darling spun, bringing yet another caution. Darling went to the rear as an accident car and Martin for the assist on Darling’s spin. Both drivers had to be warned to the rear and went grudgingly. This placed Astle on the pole for the lap 29 restart with Vanada on the outside. Scully and Spencer made up the second row with Rob Murphy and Mike Brightman behind them.
Astle made for the front and had the door closed by turn3. Darling restarted in twelfth, but began to determinedly move toward the front with Martin on his tail. He had made it to sixth place by lap 35.
Vanada hounded Astle the final 10 laps but could not get past the rear bumper. Scully maintained third place with Murphy and Brightman in tow. With three to go, Darling made his way past Brightman for fifth.
At the finish, it was Astle with a .773 second lead over Vanada to take the Don Dionne Memorial Trophy. The award named after one of the original Pro Stock drivers at Seekonk Speedway, winner of the first Pro Stock championship and two of the first three. Dionne had died in the past year.
Four time late model champ Gerry DeGasparre, Jr. hauled down his second victory of the season with a hard-fought charge to the checkers over Tyler Thompson. The Pawtucket ace got past Thompson, of Somerset, with 10 laps remaining in the 30-lap challenge. Rocket Ryan Vanasse kept his hold on the points lead with a solid third place finish. The Warwick pilot’s lead over Somerset’s Kyle Casper extended when the latter finished six spots further back, in ninth place. DeGasparre’s win edged him closer to Casper for the runnerup spot in the overall points chase.
Matt Breault, of Acushnet, Mass, nailed down the fourth spot, and Jimmy Rosenfield, returning after an extended absence, rounded out the top five.
Bob Pelland III led off from the pole with Dennis Stange on the outside. Thompson started behind Pelland with Bob Hussey on his shoulder. Acushnet’s Kyle DeSouza and DeGasparre made up the third row.
Stange’s car got squirrelly at the green, and Pelland charged into the lead. Thompson inserted his nose under Stange, pinning the Athol driver on the outside. Hussey and DeSouza dueled for third, while Casper moved up from his seventh starting slot to enter combat with DeGasparre. Rosenfield and Breault were battling behind them.
Seven laps in, Pelland led Thompson, and Stange, with a four car gap back to Casper and DeGasparre and another gap to the rest of the field, led by Hussey and Breault. But John Paiva went around on lap 10, bringing out the caution.
Pelland had Thompson on his shoulder for the restart; Stange and Casper were behind them, followed by DeGasparre and Hussey. DeSouza was in and out of the pits during the caution. Thompson pushed ahead on the restart and Pelland worked to hold him off through the lap, but Thompson got a full car’s lead into turn one of the eleventh lap and shut the door. At the same time, Casper moved past Stange into fourth. Breault got past Hussey into sixth, and Rosenfield spring boarded from tenth into seventh. As they crossed into lap 12, Thompson led, with Pelland on his bumper, Casper, Stange, DeGasparre, Breault and Rosenfield. Three laps later, Thompson had extended his lead over Pelland to 3 cars.
Pelland and the pursuing Casper made contact coming out of turn 4 on the nineteenth circuit and Pelland got up into the frontstretch wall, scrubbing his right side most of its length. Casper managed to bring it to a stop in turn two with a flat, probably cut down in the contact. The crash ended Pelland’s night on lap 19; Casper pitted for new rubber and returned at the rear of the pack.
The restart had Thompson with DeGasparre on his outside at the front with Breault and Rosenfield behind them. Stange and Vanasse were the third row. Thompson and DeGasparre went door-to-door for a lap, until Thompson got loose and DeGasparre charged into the lead. Entering the 22nd circuit, DeGasparre led Thompson, Breault, Vanasse, Rosenfield and Stange. Vanasse attempted the pass on Breault on the next go-around although Breault made it difficult to get by.
By lap 25, with just 5 to go, DeGasparre had a 6 car lead over Thompson, while Breault and Vanasse were still dueling over third. Vanasse was high and clear into third on lap 28 and shut the door on Breault into 29.
DeGasparre won going away, with a 1.151 second edge over Thompson. Vanasse was .407 behind Thompson.
Cape Codder Michael Ronhock and Fall River’s Ron Cornell logged 25 out of 25 of the lead laps in the Sport Trucks race Saturday night, but the Mashpee Mauler led the latter half of the race through the checkers to garner his first-ever victory on the asphalt oval. The win tightens Ronhock up, closing on fourth place-holder, New Bedford’s Lenny Guy, and just a handful of points between them indicate a tight run for the spot in next week’s season-ender. Ronhock had come into the fray in fifth place, but was the only member of the elite five who did not have a win on the season. Twenty-five laps later, another member had joined the exclusive club.
Seekonk’s Michael Cavallaro nearly had his fifth win of the season, but Ronhock held him off in a wild charge at the finish line for a .040 second victory. Ed Gannon from Fall River nabbed a close third, while Somersetter Ted B Berube and Dan Leach from North Dighton filled out the top 5.
Cornell shot off the pole, taking the lead over outside polesitter, Jariah Roderick. After Portsmouth, Rhode Islander Rob Andreozzi tried under Roderick to nab second, and was held off, the East Taunton driver settled in behind Cornell and Andreozzi filled in the third slot. But entering lap 3, Quincy driver Michelle Dumas went around in turn four, bringing out the caution.
Cornell and Roderick lined up again, and Cornell went to the front with Andreozzi making the underneath move as before. Dane Saritelli move up under Roderick and they began a duel for third, while behind them Ted Berube and Rick Martin were jousting for fifth.
As the field headed for lap 4, Andreozzi got into the infield in turn 4 and looped his truck with his wheels spinning and sent up a huge cloud of dust that obscured vision in the turn. Out of the cloud came Dumas and Guy, already thrown together by the low visibility. Guy was able to continue on the track, albeit with the underside of his bed bent up to the frame. Dumas ended up in the infield on the front stretch with a cold motor. She had to be lifted from the field on the hook, finishing 21 laps down.
Ronhock had taken the two laps to move from fifth to second and started on Cornell’s shoulder after a long pause for track crew to sweep the silt from the racing surface in the turn. Cornell pulled the lead at the green and Ronhock pursued, with Roderick on his tail. Saritelli, Berube, Martin, Gannon and Dan Leach poured in behind them. Again, Berube and Martin were contesting position as were Gannon and Leach behind them. Martin slipped back a bit, and Gannon moved up under him, but he used a burst of speed to come even with Berube again.
By lap 8, Saritelli was up alongside Roderick, and Martin was behind him.
Andreozzi was off the track into the dirt once again on lap 11, this time in turn two, bringing out the caution and another restart. Cornell and Ronhock faced off again, with Saritelli and Roderick behind. Martin and Berube were paired, as were Gannon and Leach.
Cornell and Ronhock battled off the line; Saritelli moved to third while Martin and Roderick contested for fourth. Ronhock got by into the lead on the second turn of lap 13 with Saritelli, Martin, Gannon, Guy and Roderick lined up behind.
Cavallaro had been stuck among the rear of the pack until lap 16. He passed Leach, who had fallen back after the early contests into ninth, then edged past Estrella and Berube into 7th on lap 20. By this time, Ronhock was enjoying an 8-car lead over Cornell and Saritelli. Gannon had third, and Martin and Guy were duking it out for fourth. Cavallaro tried a three-wide move around them and succeeded in getting by Martin on the next lap. Next time around he got past guy and Saritelli into third.
Ronhock had a 2.3 second lead into lap 23. Saritelli and Guy were contesting when Saritelli went around, collecting Guy. Saritelli was able to continue, but the caution had already flown, setting up for a restart on lap 23, which would be a green-white-checkered finish. Ronhock and Cornell again made up the front row with Gannon and the surging Cavallaro behind them. Berube and Leach pursued from the third row.
Ronhock forged to the lead with Gannon getting under Cornell into second. Cavallaro was three wide again and coming on. Gannon bumped Ronhock from behind, but a great save kept the five truck going straight. Cavallaro came around the three-wide, taking second from Gannon in the last lap, then ran up alongside Ronhock in turn three of the white flag lap. It was a hard run to the finish, with Cavallaro gaining the front hubcap on Ronhock at the line, unable to overtake completely. Ronhock held on through the grit for the .040 second win.
Chris DeMoura out of North Dighton, Mass, ran from his outside pole starting position into the lead on lap 5, then spent 17 laps holding of a hungry Michael Lema for his first Street Stock victory of the season. DeMoura had to hold Lema off through a host of caution restarts before hanging tough for Lema’s final surge on the last straight to the finish. Sparky Arsenault and Paul Newcomb both finished within the same second as the leader, creating a very close finish. Steve Axon’s fifth place appears to have propelled him into the division lead over Ryan Lineham.
Lineham’s championship came into jeopardy in the second heat for the Streeters. A lap 8 tangle with Gerard Berthelette and Rey Negley sent him nose-first into the turn 3 wall, next to the entrance ramp from the pits, ending the night for his car. Lineham got his nose into Berthelette’s rear quarter on the backstretch and the two slowed. Negley had his nose into Lineham’s rear bumper and was pushing down the straight. When Berthelette broke away, Lineham’s nose went up the track and the push from behind sent him straight into the wall for a very hard hit. The crash brought out a red flag and the ambulance. After a few minutes, Lineham was able to walk to the ambulance under his own power for the ride back to the pits. His car was wreckered from the track. He was able to return for the feature after renumbering teammate Walter Carpenter’s 09 car to his 19 to continue to pursue the championship.
Fall Riverite Patrick Delaney started the pole with DeMoura on his shoulder. At the green, Lema shot up to make a 3-wide sandwich at the front, but backed out, settling into third behind Delaney and DeMoura, though he was contested by Tyler Jarvenpaa. The Taunton hot shoe would be a factor throughout the contest.
Five laps in, DeMoura had worked his way past Delaney. Lema held third, and Sparky Arsenault had move into fourth from his starting spot in seventh. Paul Newcomb followed with Scott Serydynski on his tail. Lineham was trying to get up from the back of the pack. Through his wheel slots, his front brake rotors could be seen glowing cherry red from the hard usage that they were being subjected to.
Chuck Taylor, Jr. looped his car between turns one and two on the twelfth circuit, bringing out a caution. DeMoura and Lema faced off at the front with Arsenault and Newcomb in the second row. Delaney and Axon followed. Ken Bamford and Brian Spillane were the fourth row. Serydynski had slipped back to ninth, just behind Brian Spillane. It took three tries to get the restart, with Jarvenpaa going around in turn two and Taylor in turn one on the first attempt. Ken Kohler rotated in the starting box on the second attempt.
Finally, a good start had DeMoura and Lema battling while behind them, Arsenault and Newcomb contested third; Beaulieu and Axon for fifth and Bamford and Spillane behind them. When things finally resolved, DeMoura was again leading Lema on the backstretch in lap 14. Next lap saw Jarvenpaa around in turn two.
On the restart, Rey Lovelace looped before the starters’ box. Officials penalized Negley for the assist and both Negley and Lovelace protested to the turn 3 trackside officials. When the protest went unresolved, the pair retired to the pits.
DeMoura went back to the lead again, with Arsenault trying under Lema for second. Newcomb and Beaulieu worked each other for fourth. By lap 20, the field had lined out with DeMoura leading Lema, followed by Arsenault, Newcomb and Axon fighting it out with Beaulieu.
Lap 22 saw Lema trying under DeMoura again, but had the door shut on him. Ever persistent, Lema made a final dash at the line but was nipped by the leader, DeMoura coming in ahead by .160 seconds. Arsenault took third, .465 back and Newcomb fourth at .891; the top four all finishing within the same second. Fifth went to Axon.
Lineham, in the unfamiliar car, managed a 17th place finish, allowing Axon to ease by in the points spread for yearend championships. Final competition for the point’s championships will be held next week.
