Clark and Rowe swapped the top positions several times throughout the race after getting by early race leaders Martin Latulippe and Joey Doiron.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nQuebec invader Latulippe, who turned in the quickest lap of the event, swapped the early lead with Rowe, as Doiron made it a three-car battle. It took Clark several laps to work his way into contention with the early frontrunners, after starting alongside DJ Shaw in row six on the starting grid, the best slot available to previous 2013 race winners.<\/p>\n<p>Once Clark got by Latulippe it was Rowe versus Clark, challenged briefly by the reigning series champion, third-place finisher Travis Benjamin of Morrill, or fourth-place finisher Doiron, of Berwick. <\/p>\n<p>Rowe, running weekly in NASCAR Nites action at Beech Ridge for 10-time championship-winning car owner Dickie Fowler, settled for runner-up honors in the PASS special event at his adopted home track. <\/p>\n<p>Benjamin, the second-ranked PASS North driver entering the night\u2019s action, finished on the podium in third, and lost a little ground in the championship bout.<\/p>\n<p>Doiron posted his fourth top-five finish in four PASS North SLM events this season. He remains atop the current championship standings, still seeking his first win of the season. <\/p>\n<p>Corey Bubar of Windham, Maine looked quick in the late stages of the 150 to claim the final top-five finishing position. Scott Mulkern of Falmouth, Maine claimed sixth-place honors in front of DJ Shaw of Center Conway, New Hampshire, the winner of a PASS North SLM race at Beech Ridge earlier this season in his Precision JLM mount.<\/p>\n<p>Dave Farrington, Jr. of Jay, Maine raced to an eighth-place finish. Westbrook, Maine\u2019s Tony Ricci and six-time series champion Johnny Clark of Farmingdale rounded out the top-ten.<\/p>\n<p>Andy Shaw of Center Conway, New Hampshire led wire to wire in the 40-lap feature race for the PASS Modified division.  A multi-time champion of the class, Shaw dedicated his first victory of the season to his wife, a recent cancer survivor.<\/p>\n<p>Mitch Miller of West Boylston, Massachusetts continued to impress, posting a runner-up finish in front of Newburgh, Maine racer Scott Alexander, who passed several cars (many of the erratic persuasion) en route to the final podium finishing position. Travis Buzzell of Hollis, Maine and Mike Carignan of Somersworth, New Hampshire rounded out the top-five.<\/p>\n<p>Pro All Stars Series North Super Late Model competition next hits the track on Friday, July 12 at Oxford Plains Speedway in Oxford, Maine.  That\u2019s followed up by the 40th annual TD Bank 250 at Oxford Plains Speedway on Sunday, July 21.
