The legendary Bentley Warren got back behind the wheel of a Super Modified this past Saturday night at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, Maine, and it was just enough for him to get the itch to be back behind the wheel of an ISMA Super Modified this coming Friday night, June 20th at 7:30pm at Oxford Plains Speedway.
Warren had a couple of hot lap sessions at Beech Ridge just to feel it out and get his feet wet. The first session showed a little bit of rust, but round two he showed why he is such a legend, and ran several solid laps at blistering speeds. Veteran announcer Bruce Elder interviewed him after the second round and there was nothing but a giant smile on Bentley’s face. On Sunday morning Warren made the call to Oxford Plains Speedway President, Tom Mayberry, and proudly announced that Mayberry will have to find another Grand Marshall as he was going to be racing in the 75 lap, Locke Crane Services, ISMA Super Modified feature event. Mayberry quickly stated that he could do that, and how excited he was to have Bentley back behind the wheel at OPS.

Once again bad weather has forced the management to pull the plug for racing at Oxford Plains Speedway for Friday night, June 13th. A forecast of 80% chance of showers, heavy rains, and severe thunderstorms prompted the decision.
Track Vice President Michael Mayberry stated, “The forecast just looks horrible, and with such a big night of racing planned it’s the right thing to do. Applebee’s Night featured our own Budweiser Pro Late Models, Allen’s Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stocks, Ripley & Fletcher Ford Outlaw Sportsman, Bandits, and the all new Dave’s Small Engine Repair, PASS Northeast Late Model Series featuring the Husqvarna 100. With racecars coming from throughout New England for the PASS Series event, we wanted to let them know well ahead of time so that they didn’t waste a lot of dollars making the trek, and then getting rained out. We are working on a rain date as we speak and it will be announced in the very near future.”

For the first time this season, the Budweiser Oxford Championship Series was run on its normal scheduled Fridaynight, and the fans once again were treated to an awesome night of racing. Winners included Billy Childs Jr., Spencer Morse, David Tripp and Cam Childs.
For the second consecutive week in the Budweiser Pro Late Models, a newcomer to the division slipped out of town with the $1,500 first place check and the hardware that went with it, as rookie driver, Billy Childs Jr. held off a twenty-nine car field to pick up his first career Pro Late Model victory. However it was no easy task as he was challenged from lap 40 til the checkered flag waved. Kyle Desouza had an awesome car considering he destroyed it last Sunday afternoon. Desouza dogged Childs over the final ten laps only lose the fight to Tim Brackett on the white flag lap. Child’s edged out Brackett, Scott Moore, Shane Green and Desouza to claim the victory. Scott McDaniel, Kyle Treadwell, Kevin Douglass, Scott Farrington and Jeremy Davis completed the top ten. Heat checkers fell for Jeff Burgess, Justin Drake and Trevor Sanborn.

This year’s edition of the NAPA Show, Shine and Drag at Oxford Plains Speedway will certainly be a Father’s Day gift that any dad would enjoy. The mega-event is scheduled for Sunday, June 15th at 9am.
“We are extremely excited about this year’s NAPA Show, Shine and Drag, stated Oxford Plains Speedway Vice President, Michael Mayberry. We have been working on this project since last October, and this show should be a good one. We have added motorcycles as well as one-lunger engines for display, plus we have added a BBQ, a beer garden and music to this year’s edition. There is plenty of entertainment for families to enjoy, and we are expecting a large turnout of classic cars, muscle cars and hot rods as well, as we have been hitting numerous car shows, and have contacted many car clubs throughout the Northeast. We are very proud of having NAPA on board with us this year, and expect to have a quality show.”
