The car was good all day long. We had a great heat race. We started sixth and got a plus three \u2013 finished third. Ironically I never expected a plus three to get us on the front row. Evidently there weren\u2019t many big plusses. We started on the front row, but we just didn\u2019t have enough for (winner Jeff White).<br \/>\nWe were really trying to play it smart. We had a really good car [on] that last restart, it was just too tight.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the car was awesome. It was well balanced throughout most of the race. I really thought we were going to have something for him (White) at the end there. We were a little off and those guys (White and his crew) were on the money. But all in all great night, awesome night. We\u2019re all very psyched.<\/p>\n<p>WILL TONIGHT\u2019S FINISH GIVE YOU GOOD MOMENTUM WHEN YOU RETURN TO OXFORD PLAINS SPEEDWAY ON JUNE 25?<\/p>\n<p>Absolutely, [I] can\u2019t wait to come back. I enjoy racing here. The track is really putting on good racing, side-by-side and sometimes three-wide. It\u2019s a pretty awesome place to race. There\u2019s a lot of room, and most of the competitors are very good to race with. It makes it fun to come over.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.neracingforum.com\/forum\/viewforum.php?f=51\">ACT Forum<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/neracer.com\/blog\/blog\/category\/act\/\">ACT News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brian Hoar: ACT Late Model Tour Oxford Plains Speedway Race Report OXFORD, Maine \u2013 Brian Hoar of Williston, Vt., captured his third Top-3 in four ACT Late Model Tour starts this season with a second-place finish in The Big Jab 150 at Oxford Plains Speedway in Oxford, Maine, on Saturday, June 4.
