MacMichael Celebrate Three Week Win Streak
By Dan Byrne
WINCHESTER—It was another fine evening for racing this past Saturday at the high banks of Monadnock Speedway as the Pro 4 Modified series came to town to join with the regular Whelen All-American divisions. Track owner Larry Cirillo had Ricky Craven’s old Winston #1 racecar out for some joy laps along with a few lucky fans in the passenger seat before the festivities kicked off for the night.
The story of the night came in the Sportsman Modified division as Scott MacMichael (2nd in points) closed the gap on leader Bill Kimball. Since encountering motor issues early this summer, MacMichael has seen a resurgence. With his 5th win of the year, third consecutive win in weekly action, he has his sights firmly set on Kimball and the points lead.

Adam Pierson beats out Kevin Chaffee for the win in the DIRTcar Sportsman Modifieds
Shepard holds on to the points lead for another week despite Melvin Pierson’s win in the DIRTcar Sportsman Coupes
BRADFORD, VT – The Race Against Cancer Topless night sponsored by Dead River Co netted a nice chunk of change for this great nonprofit and some great exposed racing for the fans. Topless night means no wings for the Sprint Cars of New England and no roofs for the Sportsman Modifieds, any other car that can take their roof off is encouraged to do so, and several of the Limited Late Models and a Sportsman Coupe joined in the fun. Sorry Guys shirts were still required for all.
Adam Pierson claims back to back wins bragging the win in the USAC DMA Midgets at Albany Saratoga Friday night and then in the DIRTcar Bond Auto Parts Sportsman Modifieds Saturday night at the Ridge. Pierson took the lead away from rookie Steven Flint on lap twenty seven. Pierson would be challenged by Kevin Chaffee but would be unable to take away the win having to settle for the brides maid postion. TC Forward was your final victory lane visitor. Jordan Fornwalt came home in fourth with Steven Flint holding on to fifth his best finish of the year.
