The guys did an awesome job. We unloaded (for practice) and had a ton of confidence.\u201d<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Hoar, the ACT points leader in search of a record eighth series title this season, now has three wins in six races in 2011. He also won the non-points ACT Goodyear Speedweeks Cup 100 back in February.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s just been an unbelievable start to the season,\u201d Hoar said. \u201cIt&#8217;s an incredible roll \u2013 to come off with another win in the first half of the season is just phenomenal. We&#8217;re 50 percent in wins this year in ACT races. That&#8217;s unbelievable. That just doesn&#8217;t happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hoar started sixth in the field and quickly settled into third in a race slowed only three times by the caution flag. He was able to move into second under the green flag, before a late restart set up a 10-lap battle with leader Randy Potter.<\/p>\n<p>Hoar worked under Potter for the lead and then checked out over the final 15 laps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s such a tough little track,\u201d Hoar said. \u201cObviously, it&#8217;s not on the same level of tough racing like a Bowman Gray, but it&#8217;s our version of that. It&#8217;s really tough and tight and there&#8217;s a lot of body contact.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI liked it tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hoar said he knew even before finishing third in his qualifying race that his RPM Motorsports No. 37 GossCars.com Dodge was a strong piece.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was very similar to my Lee (USA Speedway) race in a lot of ways,\u201d he said of the season opener back in April. \u201cThere, I knew right away if I played my cards right, I had a car capable of winning. Same thing tonight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were just riding around, pushing the third place car around, and I was thinking it was pretty easy.\u201d<\/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>CLAREMONT, N.H. \u2013 Brian Hoar checked another track off his ACT Late Model Tour bucket list.
