By:
Kyle Souza, for Seekonk Speedway
SEEKONK, Mass. - For the
first time since 2012, Pro
All Star Series Super Late
Models will return to the
"Cement Palace" of Seekonk
Speedway in 2018.
A
150-lap main event has been
scheduled for Saturday,
October 27, adding to an
already impressive lineup of
racing that includes the Tri
Track Open Modified Series
and Late Models at the
Massachusetts oval. The race
will also be the finale for
the PASS schedule, which
means the 2018 series
champion will be crowned
following the checkered
flag.
"We're really
excited to get to work with
Wayne Darling of the Tri
Track Open Modified Series,"
Tom Mayberry, the president
of PASS said. "And, we are
happy to return to the
"Cement Palace" to crown the
2018 PASS North champion."
Seekonk runs Super Late
Models on a weekly basis as
part of the NASCAR Whelen
All-American Series, and in
some of the most recent PASS
action at Seekonk, drivers
that run weekly seem to have
put together a stout effort.
In 2009, Tom Scully Jr.,
held off champion Ben Rowe
en route to the win in the
150-lap affair, while in
2010, defending Seekonk Pro
Stock champion David Darling
won the race, holding off
Trevor Sanborn. In 2011,
Johnny Clark found his way
into Victory Lane, while DJ
Shaw won the most recent
event in 2012.
For
Darling, who captured the
2017 Seekonk Pro Stock title
in dominating fashion, the
opportunity to race against
PASS drivers provides him
and other local competitors
a chance to defend the home
turf.
"I think it's
pretty important (to defend
our home turf)," Darling
said. "Our cars are a lot
closer to their cars now, --
over the last few years the
rule changes have made our
cars more competitive with
them."
Among the
outsiders coming in with the
PASS on that Saturday
afternoon will be Derek
Griffith, who has already
seen his fair share of
success at the third-mile.
In 2016, Griffith came off
turn four battling for the
lead on the final lap of the
SLM Nationals, but came up
just short in the end. Last
year, he charged through the
field in the second half of
the 200-lap SLM Nationals
feature, capturing the
checkered flag and a smooth
$10,000 paycheck with it.
"When they brought this
up to us looking for some
ideas, I was all for it,"
Griffith said. "I think my
worst finish there is third,
so we have a great record.
I'm looking forward to going
back, especially as the
championship race. To close
out the year at a place we
know we are really strong,
we are going to go in pretty
confident."
As the
addition to the Tri Track
Open Modified Series
"Haunted Hundred", a race
which will crown the Tri
Track champion, PASS
provides another opportunity
for fans to see multiple
different styles of cars in
the same day. With the
open-wheel modifieds,
full-fendered SLM's and Late
Models, fans will have the
chance to witness the finale
of the New England racing
season. The Tri Track race
is scheduled for 100 laps,
while the Late Models will
run 60, and the PASS will
run 150 circuits.
"It's the last race of the
year to decide two
championships," Wayne
Darling, Managing Partner of
the Tri Track Series said.
"It's a Pro Stock and a
Modified show, and both of
them are ending their points
races. It's a step in the
right direction to make our
show even better for the
fans."

NAPLES, ME (February 16) - Pro All
Stars Series (PASS) President Tom
Mayberry announced today the
expansion of the newly named "Roads
To Oxford And Richmond" program in
2018. Now in its fifth year, the
groundbreaking "Roads To Oxford And
Richmond" concept will expand to
give racers across the continent the
chance to compete in short track
asphalt racing's biggest events.
Competitors from both the United
States and Canada will have the
opportunity to race for guaranteed
starting spots, while keeping
focused on the 45th Annual Oxford
250 and the inaugural Commonwealth
Classic at Richmond Raceway
throughout the season.
The 2017 Oxford 250 saw
droves of race fans from
across North America and
over 60 Super Late Models
make the trek to Oxford
Plains Speedway in Maine, as
the venerable race continues
to be one of the biggest
short track events in the
world. And beginning this
year, racers across several
short track disciplines will
have the opportunity to race
at the Richmond Raceway in
Virginia as part of the
inaugural PASS Commonwealth
Classic in October.
"The Oxford 250 is
continuing the tradition as
one of the premier events in
all of short track racing
and with the addition of
Richmond, PASS racers will
have the chance to compete
in two of the biggest events
in North America," said
Mayberry. "The 'Roads To
Oxford And Richmond' will be
bigger than ever in 2018. We
will be able to keep the 250
and Richmond in focus
throughout the year and give
competitors at several
venues the chance to get
locked in."
This
year's program will see the
winners of four select races
in the United States and
Canada get a guaranteed
starting position at full
start money for the Oxford
250 or at Richmond. The
remaining top five finishers
in each of these events will
be guaranteed a starting
position for the Oxford 250
or Richmond at half start
money.
The first
event to be featured will be
the famed Easter Bunny 150
at North Carolina's Hickory
Motor Speedway on March 31.
The "Roads" then continue to
an international event in
the Canadian province of New
Brunswick, with the series'
first trip to Petty
International Raceway on
June 2. Then, a special
Tuesday night 200 lapper
paying $5,000 to win on July
3, will be held at Spud
Speedway in Caribou, ME. The
final race as part of the
"Roads To Oxford And
Richmond" will be on Sunday,
July 29 at Oxford Plains
Speedway.
Additionally, the top
licensed drivers in points
from PASS North, PASS South,
and the PASS National
Championship Series, will
have provisionals available,
if needed, as long as they
have attempted to qualify
for every race in their
chosen series. All drivers
that will have guaranteed
spots through the "Roads To
Oxford And Richmond" or via
championship points
provisionals have to compete
in their heat races,
qualifying, or in their
consolation races, but will
not have to compete in the
last chances race if they
have not already advanced. A
full schedule of events and
support divisions for the
45th Annual Oxford 250 at
Oxford Plains Speedway and
the inaugural PASS Commonwealth
Classic at Richmond Raceway
will be announced in the
near future.

Oxford 250 & Richmond
Spots On The Line
For PASS South Go At Orange
County
CHARLOTTE, NC (July
11) - The only thing hotter
than the temperatures in the
Carolinas right now will be
the action on the track when
the Pro All Stars Series
(PASS) South Super Late
Models return to action at
Orange County Speedway on
Saturday night, July 21. The
Easter Bunny 150 and
Mason-Dixon Meltdown aside,
the Orange Blossom Special
at Orange County is the
oldest event on the PASS
South schedule, dating back
to the series inaugural
season in 2006. But, this
year's race will have added
importance with the top five
finishers gaining guaranteed
starting sports for either
the 45th Annual Oxford 250
or the inaugural PASS
Commonwealth Classic at
Richmond Raceway in October.
In addition to PASS South,
the MASS Street Stocks will
make their first ever visit
to Orange County Speedway,
the Limited Sportsman will
race for $1300 to win in the
Donnie Carver Memorial and
the Charger cars will be in
action.
Tate
Fogleman, from nearby
Durham, NC, is a
third-generation racer and
hometown favorite at Orange
County Speedway. He knows
anything less than a top
five finish in the Orange
Blossom Special will be a
huge missed opportunity to
get locked into either one
of the biggest short track
races of the year.
"Getting locked in for
either Oxford or Richmond is
huge," says Fogleman, driver
of the Solid Rock Carriers
Ford #8. "Knowing you are
locked in relieves a lot of
pressure. Those events will
be hard to make and the
whole weekend will go
smoother knowing that you
will be locked in."
Fogleman has reason to be
confident heading back to
Orange County. Last fall,
the 2015 PASS South champion
completed one of the most
dominant performances in
series history by the taking
the checkered flag at his
home track.
"I always
enjoy going to Orange County
because of the fans I have
there and the support, but
this time will be even more
special because the last
race we ran there, I was
able to pick up the win,"
said Fogleman. "Going back
to a track you have won at
builds a lot of confidence,
not only for myself, but the
whole team. Hopefully we can
build off what we had last
year and find our way back
to victory lane there next
Saturday night."
This
year's "Roads To Oxford And
Richmond" program will see
the race winner get a
guaranteed starting position
at full start money for the
Oxford 250 or at Richmond.
The remaining top five
finishers will be guaranteed
a starting position for
either the Oxford 250 or
Richmond at half start
money.
All the action
gets under way on Friday,
July 20 at Orange County
Speedway with open practice
for all competing divisions
from 5 - 8 PM. On Saturday,
July 21, practice will begin
at 2 PM, with qualifying
starting at 5 PM for the
PASS South Super Late
Models, MASS Street Stocks,
Limited Sportsman, and
Chargers, followed by main
events scheduled to start at
approximately 7 PM.
PASS Super Late Model entry
forms for Orange County
Speedway and Oxford Plains
Speedway, along with the
45th Annual Oxford 250 and
inaugural PASS Commonwealth
Classic at Richmond Raceway,
can be found at
ProAllStarsSeries.com.
The Pro All Stars Series
is recognized as North
America's premier
sanctioning body for asphalt
Super Late Models and boasts
such marquee events as the
legendary Oxford 250 at
Oxford Plains Speedway, PASS
South's Easter Bunny 150 at
the historic Hickory Motor

RESULTS - 7-7-18
Reid Lanpher dominant in
PASS Super Late Model
150-lapper at Beech
Ridge Motor Speedway
Scarborough, Maine - Reid
Lanpher of Manchester nailed
down his first Pro All Stars
Series North Super Late
Model victory of the season
Saturday night, dominating
the non-stop, 150-lap event.
Lanpher, who had
posted three runner-up
finishes in six PASS North
starts earlier this year,
stalked an intense battle
between Trevor Sanborn and
Garrett Hall through the
opening stages of the race
before driving around the
competition to win by almost
five seconds.
Closest
to Lanpher under the
checkered flag was Curtis
Gerry of Waterboro, like
winner Lanpher a recent
track champion at the
venerable Scarborough
speedplant. Gerry's
second-place finish snapped
a four-race win streak he
had amassed in part-time
PASS North competition, a
streak that got underway at
last year's rich Oxford 250.
Sanborn, of East
Parsonsfield, raced with the
leaders throughout the
ultra-quick event and earned
a third-place finish.
Sanborn also turned in the
fastest lap in the race
while battling with Hall for
the early race lead. Mike
Rowe, the 67-year-old Maine
and New England Racing Hall
of Famer from Turner, made
all of the kids earn their
finishes while crossing the
finish line in fourth
position.
Two-time
PASS North champion DJ Shaw
of Center Conway, New
Hampshire claimed a
fifth-place finish after
starting the 150-lap race
from 13th position. Shaw,
who entered the action on
top of the PASS North Super
Late Model championship
points standings, padded his
advantage slightly with that
run.
Sixth-place
finisher Brandon Barker of
Windham was the final racer
in the finishing order able
to remain on the le4ad lap
with high-flying winner
Lanpher. Justin Drake of
Burnham, Scarborough's Hall,
Billy Rodgers of Old Orchard
Beach and Cassius Clark of
Farmington rounded out the
top ten.
Ben Tinker
of New Gloucester stayed
atop the PASS Mods rankings
with his third victory of
the season in his 40-lap
main event. Tinker, the
defending champion on the
touring series, rebounded
from an uncharacteristic
spin off turn two, as well
as a minor brush against the
concrete backstretch wall en
route to victory lane.
Tinker took the lead
away from Bruce Helmuth of
Wales, who was seeking his
second consecutive win.
Helmuth settled for
runner-up honors, with
Austin Teras of Gray racing
from the back of the pack
into third position in just
his second PASS Mods race.
Adam Gray of Belchertown,
Massachusetts was the
fourth-place finisher, just
ahead of Freeport's Jariet
Harrison.
The
next event for both the Pro
All Stars Series North Super
Late Models and the PASS
Mods will be contested at
Oxford Plains Speedway in
Oxford, Maine on Sunday,
July 29th. For more

"Roads To
Oxford
& Richmond"
Entry Lists for The Oxford
250 and Richmond PASS
Commonwealth Classic Grow as
Big Month of July Approaches
NAPLES, ME (June 19)
- Entry lists continue to
grow as the two biggest Pro
All Stars Series (PASS)
Super Late Model races of
the year draw near. With
still two months to go
before the green flag drops,
there are currently over 40
entries for the $25,000 to
win, 45th Annual Oxford 250
at Oxford Plains Speedway in
August. And at over four
months away, the inaugural
PASS Commonwealth Classic at
Richmond Raceway is drawing
entries from across the
motorsports spectrum for the
PASS Super Late Models,
Tour-Type Modifieds, Late
Model Stocks, Limited Late
Models, and Street Stocks.
But, with high car
counts expected for both
Oxford and Richmond, getting
a guaranteed starting spot
is an opportunity that
cannot be missed. Now in its
fifth year, the
groundbreaking "Roads To
Oxford And Richmond" program
further expands to give
racers an opportunity to get
locked into short track
asphalt racing's biggest
events. And, the month of
July is loaded with
opportunities.
It all
begins on Sunday, July 1
with The Open 100 at Oxford
Plains Speedway. This
non-points race for drivers
who have not won a PASS
event in recent years, will
award the top three
finishers with guaranteed
starting spots in the Oxford
250. As a matter of fact,
Wayne Helliwell, Jr.
parlayed his guaranteed spot
in 2016 to the win in the
43rd Annual Oxford 250. But
the opportunities do not end
there.
Just two days
later, on Tuesday, July 3,
PASS North racers will
compete for $5,000 to win in
the Aroostook Savings & Loan
Firecracker 200 at Spud
Speedway. An event that will
give the top five finishers
guaranteed starting spots at
either the 45th Annual
Oxford 250 or the PASS
Commonwealth Classic at
Richmond.
Likewise,
PASS South drivers will have
their final opportunity of
the year to get locked in to
Oxford or Richmond in the
12th Annual Orange Blossom
Special at Orange County
Speedway. Colorado's Preston
Peltier won the first
qualifying race at Hickory
Motor Speedway on Easter
weekend earlier this season.
This year's "Roads To
Oxford And Richmond "
program will see the race
winners get a guaranteed
starting position at full
start money for the Oxford
250 or at Richmond. The
remaining top five finishers
in each of these PASS events
will be guaranteed a
starting position for either
the Oxford 250 or Richmond
at half start money. All
drivers that receive
guaranteed spots through the
"Roads To Oxford And
Richmond" or via
championship points
provisionals have to compete
in their heat races,
qualifying, or in their
consolation races, but will
not have to compete in the
last chances race if they
have not already advanced.
3-time Oxford 250
winner, Mike Rowe, and PASS
South standout, Kodie Connor
are among the most recent
batch of entries for the
250. Richmond entry forms
just became available with
Connor as the first entrant,
along with former PASS
champions, Ben Rowe, Matt
Craig, and Tyler Church.
Entry forms for the 45th
Annual Oxford 250 and
inaugural PASS Commonwealth
Classic, along with pit
stall reservations for
Richmond, are available at

NAPLES, ME (May 31)
- Pro All Stars Series
(PASS) officials announced
today that entry forms and
rules for all divisions
competing at the Inaugural
PASS Commonwealth Classic at
Richmond Raceway have been
finalized and are now
available at
ProAllStarsSeries.com. The
PASS Commonwealth Classic

PM and will see some of the
biggest divisions in short
track racing in competition.
Nearly 400 laps of racing
will be contested at
Richmond Raceway by the PASS

"The response to the PASS

racers from all over North
America are ready to get to
Richmond Raceway in
October," said PASS
President Tom Mayberry. "The
Commonwealth Classic will
pay big money across the
board for all the divisions
that will be in action. A
lot of people have been
asking about the rules and
we are glad to get them out
now so everyone can start to
get ready. We think the

Wallace Fends
Off Burton For Wild Win In
Old Glory 125
MIDLAND, NC (May 25)
- Matt Wallace prevailed
over Harrison Burton after a
torrid battle through the
last 20 laps to win the Old
Glory 125 Friday night for
the Pro All Stars Series
(PASS) South Super Late
Models. Wallace's dramatic
victory was his first
triumph in a PASS South
Super Late Model.
"I
don't know how we did it
tonight, the 12 car [Burton]
is definitely one to beat
right now, they're the best
short track car in the
country basically," said
Wallace, after climbing from
the Unkers Theraputic
Products Chevrolet in
victory lane. "It's truly an
honor to race side-by-side
with these guys and win.
There was actually a lot of
momentum up on the outside
and my dad kept me pumped
up. This is awesome."
In qualifying, Burton
set a new track record with
a lap of 15.703 seconds
(114.628 MPH) for his first
career PASS South quick
qualifying time around the
fast half-mile triangle.
After the top 10 qualifiers
redraw, Preston Peltier
would move to the pole
position, while Burton would
slot into the eighth
starting spot.
When
the green flag waved to
start the Old Glory 125,
Peltier took the initial
lead over Lucas Jones.
Burton would start making
his way to the front,
passing Jared Irvan for
fifth on lap 15. Meanwhile,
Wallace was also on the
move, taking second from
Jones, and then bypassing
Peltier in the dogleg for
the lead on lap 24.
The first caution of the
night would not wave until
lap 39 when Wes Burton
slowed on track. Following
the restart, Jones would get
the advantage over Wallace
on lap 41, but would
relinquish the lead back to
him in turn three just seven
laps later. The race would
continue caution-free until
lap 75 when Peltier looped
his ill-handling car exiting
turn three.
Prior to
the restart, Burton had
bypassed Jones for second
and would start alongside
Wallace as they came back to
green. Burton got the
advantage over Wallace to
take the lead for the first
time in the race. The
caution would wave again
with 25 laps to go for a
hard crash by Corey Heim in
the dogleg, which saw his
machine briefly catch fire.
On the final restart of
the night, Wallace returned
the favor to Burton, taking
the lead from the outside
entering turn one. Over the
final laps, Burton was able
to get under Wallace several
times exiting turn three,
only to have Wallace skirt
out ahead in turn one and
through the dogleg. Despite
fighting an extremely loose
car in the final laps,
Wallace was able to hold off
Burton by a car length for
his first career PASS South
Super Late Model win.
Rounding out the top five
were Ryan Moore, Irvan, and
Jeff Fultz. Finishing sixth
through tenth were Kodie
Conner, Bronson Butcher,
Jones, Dustin Dunn, and Roy
Hayes.
The PASS
South Super Late Models will
hit the track again on
Saturday, July 21 at Orange
County Speedway for the
Orange Blossom Special. The
top five finishers at Orange
County will receive
guaranteed starting
positions for either the
Oxford 250 in August or the
inaugural PASS Commonwealth
Classic at Richmond Raceway
in October. Entry forms will
be available soon at
ProAllStarsSeries.com. Be

Oxford
& Richmond"
Orange County’s PASS South
Go In July Becomes
“Roads To Oxford And
Richmond” Qualifier
NAPLES, ME (May 25)
- Pro All Stars Series
(PASS) President Tom
Mayberry announced today an
additional qualifying event
for the "Roads To Oxford And
Richmond" program. Now in
its fifth year, the
groundbreaking "Roads To
Oxford And Richmond" concept
further expands to give

to get locked into short

in Maine and Canada, will be

reward the top five
finishers a guaranteed
starting spot for either the

The 2017 Oxford 250 saw
droves of race fans from
across North America and
over 60 Super Late Models
make the trek to Oxford
Plains Speedway in Maine for
the chance to win over
$25,000. And beginning this
year, racers across several
short track disciplines will
have the opportunity to race
at the Richmond Raceway in
Virginia as part of the
inaugural PASS Commonwealth
Classic, one of the most
talked about and anticipated
events in years.
This
year's program will see the
race winners get a
guaranteed starting position
at full start money for the
Oxford 250 or at Richmond.
The remaining top five
finishers in each of these
PASS events will be
guaranteed a starting
position for either the
Oxford 250 or Richmond at
half start money.
The
first event to be featured
in the program was the
Easter Bunny 150 at North
Carolina's Hickory Motor
Speedway, a race won by
Preston Peltier. The "Roads"
continue to an international
event next weekend in the
Canadian province of New
Brunswick, with the series'
first trip to Petty
International Raceway on
June 2. Then, a special
Tuesday night 200 lapper
paying $5,000 to win on July
3, will be held at Spud
Speedway in Caribou, ME,
followed by the newly added
event at Orange County
Speedway on July 21. The
final race as part of the
"Roads To Oxford And
Richmond" will be on Sunday,
July 29 at Oxford Plains
Speedway.
Additionally, the top
licensed drivers in points
from PASS North, PASS South,
and the PASS National
Championship Series, will
have provisionals available,
if needed, as long as they
have attempted to qualify
for every race in their
chosen series. All drivers
that receive guaranteed
spots through the "Roads To
Oxford And Richmond" or via
championship points
provisionals have to compete
in their heat races,
qualifying, or in their
consolation races, but will
not have to compete in the
last chances race if they
have not already advanced.
