Johnny Clark Wins Father’s Day 150 At Unity Raceway
UNITY, Maine — Johnny Clark of Farmingdale, Maine, won his record-tying third straight PASS North Series race on Sunday, leading the final 114 laps virtually unchallenged en route to victory in the Father’s Day 150 at Unity Raceway.
The win was the fourth of Clark’s career at Unity, and his second on Father’s Day.
“It’s really kind of unbelievable,” said Clark, who now has 22 career series victories. “We were going for three in a row, and I figured we’d blow it here because everyone always expects us to be so good at this place. I didn’t know if we’d be able to pull it off.” (more…)
