Nick Sweet Prevails in SLM
Thriller at Thunder Road |
Barre, Vermont -
Hometown stock car racer
Nick Sweet nailed down his
first Super Late Model race
win on Friday night, holding
off Quebec competitor and
fellow former Milk Bowl
winner Patrick Laperle in an
outstanding 150-lap Pro All
Stars Series Super Late
Model main event,
highlighting Northfield
Savings Bank Night Before
The Milk Bowl action at
Thunder Road International
Speedbowl in Barre, Vermont.
Sweet, a two-time track
champion at the high-banked,
1/4-mile oval, spent the
opening portion of the race
chasing Jeremy Davis of
Tamworth, New Hampshire.
Sweet claimed the race lead
on the 36th circuit, setting
the pace until current PASS
North Super Late Model
points leader DJ Shaw of
Center Conway, New Hampshire
took control with 50 laps
remaining.
Laperle,
always at his best when the
ante rises on the racetrack,
moved in and battled Shaw,
swapping the lead as Sweet
regrouped for his final
charge. A late restart
allowed Sweet to move by
Shaw and back into
contention, and after racing
just about side by side for
the final 20 laps Sweet got
to the finish line just
ahead of Laperle with Shaw,
the reigning PASS North
Super Late Model champion,
third across the stripe.
Bobby Therien of
Hineburg, Vermont bounced
back from adversity and
multiple pit stops to finish
in fourth position.
Likewise, Derek Griffith was
fast but didn't see the
breaks go his way, and the
Hudson, New Hampshire
competitor ended up in fifth
spot.
Derek Ramstrom
of Worcester, Massachusetts
just missed out on a
top-five run after racing
with the leaders throughout
the 150-lapper. Garrett Hall
of Scarborough, Maine was
seventh, with early race
leader Davis eighth,
bouncing back after spinning
off a lapped car while
running in second position.
Travis Benjamin of
Belfast, Maine lost a bit of
ground in his championship
battle versus Shaw, posting
a ninth-place finish.
Newly-crowned Oxford Plains
Speedway Super Late Model
champion Gabe Brown of
Center Conway, New Hampshire
rounded out the top ten.
The next Pro All Stars
Series North Super Late
Model event is scheduled for
Saturday, October 13 at
Oxford Plains Speedway in
Oxford, Maine. Post time is
2:00 p.m. For more

PASS
North Points Race Heats Up
Heading To Thunder Road |
NAPLES, ME
(September 26) - After a
wild weekend of action at
Beech Ridge Motor Speedway
that saw points leader DJ
Shaw struggle, the Pro All
Stars Series (PASS) North
Super Late Models are now
preparing for Friday night's
150 lapper at Thunder Road
International Speedbowl in
Vermont. While Shaw limped
home with a 22nd place
finish at Beech Ridge,
fellow two-time series
champion, Travis Benjamin,
finished fifth, allowing him
to close to just 17 points
behind Shaw.
With the
championship fight as a
backdrop, Friday night will
be the first time PASS has
raced at Thunder Road for a
second time in a single
season. And, as the prelude
to Thunder Road's biggest
annual event, the Milk Bowl,
it will also be the first
time PASS has ever raced at
the legendary quarter-mile
at night.
"Thunder
Road under the lights should
be a blast, that's one
racetrack that I would love
to get a win at," says
Benjamin, driver of the
Huot's Family Restaurant #7.
"If we can win, we will gain
points and hopefully keep
some pressure on DJ [Shaw]
and make it a battle to the
end."
PASS North has
averaged nearly 40 cars over
the last three races and
Friday night at Thunder Road
should produce another
strong field of Super Late
Models. In addition to the
championship contenders,
former PASS National
champion, Ben Rowe, has
entered, as well as former
Oxford 250 winners, Wayne
Helliwell, Jr. and Joey
Polewarcyzk, and this year's
Oxford Plains Speedway track
champion, Gabe Brown. New
Hampshire hotshoe, Derek
Griffith, is entered, along
with Derek Ramstrom and
Garrett Hall. New
Hampshire's Scotty
MacMichael and Connecticut's
Devin O'Connell have also
entered, along with a fast
group of Vermonters,
including Bobby Therrien,
Nick Sweet, Matt White, and
Jason Corliss.
On
Friday, rotating practice
begins at Noon, with heat
races at 6 PM, followed by
features for the PASS North
Super Late Models, Street
Stock Showdown, North East
Mini Stock Tour, and Road
Warriors.
Entry forms
for Thunder Road
International Speedbowl,
Oxford Plains Speedway, and
Seekonk Speedway, along with
the inaugural PASS
Commonwealth Classic at
Richmond Raceway, are
