Naples ME (7/3/10) Ben Rowe has run up front in all four
Pro All Stars Series (PASS) North races to date and
Saturday night the four time series champ took Scott
Mulkern’s Community Pharmacies 48 to victory lane, a
first in the win column for the new team led by
journeyman crew chief Seth Holbrook.
Rowe took
the lead for good on lap 84 of Saturday night’s 150 lap
Fourth of July Spectacular at Canaan (NH) Fair Speedway,
battling with Johnny Clark over the final sixty six laps
to claim the victory and foil Clark’s shot at four
straight PASS North super late model wins.
Richie
Dearborn had a strong run, racing up from the back half
of the grid to finish third. Trevor Sanborn led a bunch
but had to settle for fourth when the checkers dropped.
Adam Bates gained eight spots for a fine top five.
Clark looked like he had a great shot at the
four-peat, charging up from eleventh spot to take the
point on one of the night’s few restarts right before
the half-way mark. Clark captured the lead from Rowe at
the green and for a while it looked like the reigning
champ might claim the win streak record, but Rowe came
back at Clark in a big way to regain the lead and cross
the finish line first.
Ten cars completed all 150
laps in a fast paced race that was only slowed by three
quick caution periods. Heat race wins went to Nick Ribbe
and Johnny Clark.
Andy Shaw was sidelined by
ignition issues in his heat race, but when feature time
for the PASS Mods rolled
around his ride was repaired and ready to rumble. Shaw
claimed his first PASS Mod feature of the season,
beating Jon Brill and Scott McDaniel to the stripe. Shaw
raced up from eighth on the Grid and took the from
Sumner Sessions with thirteen to go. Bill Dixon and Rich
Ferreira won the Mod heats.
The Pro All Stars
season heats up in July with a string of races that will
test the mettle of all of the series’ competitors. The
super late models are back on track next Saturday night
July 10 at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway, and then they get
right back at it Tuesday July 13th for 200 laps at Lee
(NH) USA Speedway. Then, it’s off to Thompson
International Speedway on July 22nd. for round three of
the PASS National Championship series.
The PASS
Mods have 40 lap features on tap at Beech Ridge and Lee
USA, plus a standalone appearance at Canaan Fair
Speedway July 24. The PASS Sportsman tour will join the
PASS super late models and Mods at Lee USA on Tuesday
July 13th. |
