SCARBOROUGH, Maine – Bobby Timmons III of Windham, Maine, finished a career-best third in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Pro Series 100 at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, Maine, on Saturday, June 29. Timmons started seventh in his second career start in the marquee event of the season for the Pro Series division, and he patiently logged laps inside the Top-10 until first cracking the Top-5 at the 75-lap mark. He capitalized on a late-race restart to gain much-needed track position and pull out the podium finish. It was the first race in a four-day span for the driver of the Mulkern Racing No. 48 Southern Maine Chrysler Dodge Jeep/Timmons Machine Dodge, as Timmons returns to Beech Ridge for the Miller Lite 50 on Tuesday, July 2.

Just three weeks after graduating from Hermon High School, 17 year old Ryan Modery of Hermon found himself in Maine State Lottery Victory Lane at Speedway 95 Saturday night after winning the 40 lap Dysart’s Late Model feature. Modery, last year’s Rookie of the Year in the division, passed Corinth’s Lloyd Nickerson on lap 18 of the caution free event and held Nickerson at bay to the end. Nickerson finished in second, about 2 feet behind Modery, with 2012 division champion Andy Saunders of Ellsworth finishing third despite a broken sway bar on his car. Saunders started 10th on the grid and was in third by lap 20 and gaining on the leaders before his car broke, causing him to only be able to maintain his position. Last week’s winner, John Kalel II of Orrington finished in fourth after starting near the rear of the 16 car field. Harrington’s Andrew McLaughlin finished fifth after starting third on the grid.
