A Memorial Day weekend tradition is returning to Maine’s fastest track this Sunday May 25th with the running of the 2014 Coastal 200, presented by Jordan Lumber and Jordan Excavation. The 200 lap Late Model Sportsman main event will feature many of the top LMS drivers in the northeast region all gunning for their share of the $18,700 purse. The winner will take home the $3,000 top prize and also try to pocket an additional $3,000+ in lap leader bonus money. AR Bodies is also kicking in a special award for the race’s Hard Charger Award, given to the driver who advances the most positions from their starting spot. “We’re all so excited to bring this race back for our fans” said track announcer / promoter Ken Minott. “As soon as the Jordan family reopened this track people were asking for this race. Yeah, it’s a big race, but like all of our shows, we want to make it accessible and affordable for families to come see. So we’re keeping it right at our weekly admission price. We’re looking for a packed house and a great race”

The newly proposed Mini-Cup division that was scheduled to run weekly in the Budweiser Oxford Championship Series on Friday nights will be moved to the Go-Kart Series that is scheduled to start in June of 2014.
“The division just can’t get off the ground stated Oxford Plains Speedway, General Manager, Dick Therrien. We had quite a bit of interest during our organizational meetings, but the interest apparently were just tire kickers, and unfortunately you can’t race with just a couple of cars. We want to thank Barry Morris and Parker Varney for supporting us, and hopefully some others will join in when the Go-Kart season kicks off.”
Oxford Plains Speedway officials are looking at expanding the numbers of races for the new four cylinder Bandit division which will now debut on Friday, May 30th. A revised schedule will be released in the very near future.

It was a beautiful spring evening at Wiscasset Speedway. Fans gathered to watch the races. Feature racing started just as the bright lights of Wiscasset lit up the track. On the schedule were the group one division of racing: Thunder 4’s, Late Model Sportsman, Mini Trucks, and Strictly Street. The Wicked Good Vintage Racers were also at the Speedway for two flex feature events.
First on the track was the spotlighted race of the week, a twenty-five lap Thunder 4 event. Starting on the pole was the #14 of Robert McDonald. Behind him were the #1 of Jeff Davis and the #88me of Mike Mathieu.
