Joey Doiron finally broke a year-long winless streak on Saturday night, securing his first Pro All Stars Series victory of 2026 during the PASS Oktoberfest event at Lee USA Speedway. The win, which marked the 18th of his career, came after a challenging season where tire and suspension issues had previously sidelined him in two starts. Doiron, who is from Berwick, Maine, battled through a competitive field to claim the checkered flag.
The race saw intense action, with Jimmy Renfrew, Jr. climbing through the field to finish second, and Trevor Sanborn taking third place. Eddie MacDonald secured fourth, while Alexendre Tardif drove from 17th on the grid to finish fifth. D.J. Shaw had a quiet night, crossing the line sixth, while Ryan Kuhn finished seventh.
The race featured several cautions, including incidents involving Gabe Brown, who retired early, and Kyle Salemi. Doiron managed to build a comfortable lead in the final 48 laps, which were run green, allowing him to stretch his advantage by 2.181 seconds. Renfrew, who had climbed to sixth, ultimately struggled to keep pace with Doiron in the closing stages.
The event, which anchored the first day of the season-ending Oktoberfest, saw Doiron credit his success to the car's performance throughout the day. He noted that the package was different from previous years, allowing the car to maintain good speed as the race progressed, ultimately securing the much-needed win.
