Points Leaders Try To Stay On Top For PASS North Return To Beech Ridge

On By

NAPLES, ME (April 30) – Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, ME has long been one of the stalwarts on the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) North Super Late Model schedule. The facility has hosted PASS events since 2006 and provides some of the closest action seen anywhere on the circuit. And, much like the first event of the season at Oxford Plains Speedway, this weekend’s Southern Maine Motors 150 will serve as a precursor to one of the biggest races of the season, the PASS 400 weekend at Beech Ridge in September. In fact, the racing has been so competitive that in the last five PASS events at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway, five different drivers have gone to victory lane. Among those drivers is Joey Doiron, who scored his first career PASS North victory in last year’s Southern Maine Motors 150. And, if last year’s races are any indication, Doiron believes there will be no substitution for a good setup.

“Well Beech Ridge over the last two years has become a one groove racetrack and the key to success there is to make sure your car can pass on the bottom because everyone else usually lines up on the outside,” said Doiron. Read Full Article →

Bittersweet Success for Reid Lanpher, in the Amsoil NELCAR Series.

On By

Story by Chris Roy

With a 2nd place finish at Unity Raceway and a 5th place finish on the road course at New Hampshire Motor Speedway (NHMS), 13 year old Reid Lanpher of Manchester, Maine has taken over as the points leader in the Amsoil NELCAR Series. This weekend NELCAR has a double header, racing at BRMS on Saturday, then at Seekonk Speedway on Sunday.

Though Reid is the current point’s leader, he will take a big hit in the standings after this weekend because of his age, he won’t be able to compete in any of the races at BRMS. “Yes, I couldn’t be happier with those two finishes. After NHMS last weekend I was very pleased to find myself in the points lead. It’s a shame I cannot run BRMS this Saturday and for the rest of the season, but I entirely understand that the tracks have a age limit and are sticking to it. I hope that I can continue running up front throughout the season.” Reid does have a chance of winning the NHMS Legends Championship this season.
