Wiscasset, ME- The Center of Speed 300 this Sunday is a day that is going down in the record books at Wiscasset Raceway. The weather was perfect, the fans where in the stands and the drivers and crews brought their cars. After 140 laps of action packed racing in the Steel’s Real Rod’s and Custom’s Late Model division the last ten laps made the crowd rise to their feet. Harpswell’s T.J. Watson was able to hold of Adam Chadbourne for the $5,000 dollar payday. Not only did the win put money in Watson’s pocket but it also earned him an invitation to the A.CT. race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway next month. Watson already had a deal going with Sally Graves, a late model car owner from New Hampshire that if he did indeed qualified for the race that their team would supply T.J. with a car and that looks like that will be the case. Chadbourne did finish second with Johnny Clark who was pulling double duty coming home third. Fourth went to Steve Reno out of West Bath and fifth went three time LMS champion Chris Thorne from Sidney
The 150 lap Clark’s Car Crushing Pro Stock race was a thriller as well. Johnny Clark showed his dominance through the entire race but in the Scott Chubbuck would get by the three time P.A.S.S. champion on the outside. Chubbuck would take the checkered flag and the $5,000 check. Clark had his hands full but did finish second right in front of defending champion Randy Turner. Scott Moore of North Anson, ME finished fourth and Newcastle’s Charlie Colby finished fifth.
