\"\"<\/a>Unity, Maine — Dean Fuller of Albion won his second straight Late Model feature race Saturday night at Unity Raceway, in just his second start of the 2012 season.<\/p>\n

Fuller, a champion in the old Pro Stock class at Unity a decade ago, roared from the back of the field twice, aided in part by a restart incident that forced race leader (and point leader) Ajay Picard of Palmyra to the pit area.<\/p>\n

Fuller roared by Waldoboro\u2019s Will Collins shortly thereafter, then outran Burnham\u2019s Brian Whitney to the checkered flag. Collins held on for a third-place finish. Picard rebounded to claim a fourth-place finish, in front of Chelsea\u2019s Dan Trask. Picard won the heat race.

\nRyan Robinson of Clinton won the Wildcat main event by about an inch over Craig Robbins of Montville. Robinson and Robbins battled side-by-side for most of the 20-lap distance, thrilling the grandstand crowd as point leader Brent Chase of Burnham followed. Robinson, Robbins and Chase filled the podium, with Chris King of Burnham and Skowhegan\u2019s Zach Audet rounding out the top five. George Fernald III of Benton won the heat race.<\/p>\n

The Wicked Good Vintage Racing Association was on hand, competing in their historical oval track hardware with four classes split into two on-track 20-lap events.<\/p>\n

Wally Henderson of Litchfield bested Casco\u2019s Bob Symonds and Kevin Waterhouse of West Paris in the Wicked Good Late Model class. Paul Pierce of Lincolnville outgunned Hermon\u2019s Kris Watson in the Wicked Good Outlaw division. John Lizotte of Freeport was tops in Wicked Good Modified competition, while John Rice of Bristol triumphed in the Wicked Good Sportsman class.<\/p>\n

Steve Rackliff of Starks dominated the 20-lap feature race for Late Model Pro Four competitors, surviving several restarts against Clinton veteran Tim Robinson to get the job done. Robinson earned runner-up honors, with point leader Alex Fernald of Benton crossing the line in third position. Norm Cummings, Jr. of Augusta ended up fourth, followed by Scott Horne of Benton. Rackliff was triumphant in the heat race.<\/p>\n

Clinton teen racer Kyle Robinson claimed victory with a last-lap move past the previous week\u2019s winner, Matt Shaw of Burnham, in the 20-lap Monster Mini Stock main event. It was Robinson\u2019s first win since moving up from the Teen Thunder class. Robinson and Shaw were joined on the podium by Tim Collins of Farmingdale. Brent Roy of Vassalboro and Montville\u2019s Wes Turner rounded out the top five. Shaw won the heat race.<\/p>\n

Nate Tribbett of Richmond worked his way steadily through the pack, passed Waterville\u2019s Paul Shorette coming out of the final turn on the final lap and scored victory in the 20-lap Flyin\u2019 4 division feature race. Horette ended up with second-place honors, with Beton racer Henry Boudreau bouncing back to finish third after spinning while leading earlier in the race. Mike Dulaney of Richmond was fourth, followed by Samantha Farnham of Benton. Boudreau won the heat race.<\/p>\n

Robert MacDonald of Oakland made a late-race move pay off in the 20-lap Challenger division main event, just beating Ed Archer, Jr. of Skowhegan to the finish line. Bob Corson of Benton led the first half of the race and claimed the third-place trophy. Oakland\u2019s John Fortier was the fourth-place finisher, in front of Norridgewock\u2019s Rick Sirois. Archer won the heat race.<\/p>\n

Kyle Jackson of Fairfield stayed hot in Teen Thunder competition, outrunning Colby Robbins of Montville to the checkered flag. Canaa\u2019s Robert Dyer claimed the third-place trophy, in front of Benton\u2019a Adam Fernald. Dyer won the heat race.<\/p>\n
