Sunny skies were finally in the forecast for coastal Maine on Saturday allowing for Wiscasset Speedway to successfully host a full Group 1 racing program. The night’s events included the Sweatt’s Concrete Thunder 4 Minis, Brackett’s Market 4-Cylinder Pros, Norm’s Used Cars Pro Stocks, visiting Senior Tour Auto Racers, and the Gosline Insurance Super Streets for the coveted Ward & Sons 100.

Due to multiple unfortunate rain outs this season, the Thunder 4 Mini drivers participated in two 25-lap feature races. 2022 Thunder 4 Mini champion Shane Webber survived chaos in the first feature, coming through the field to score the win over Zach Audet and Ricky Austin. Derek Cook fought through some melee in the early laps of the second feature, pulling away with a sizable lead. Zach Audet gave him a run for his money following a late-race restart but Cook maintained command, scoring the victory. Shane Webber rounded out the podium.

Scott Clemence and Bob Guyon put on a spirited battle for the lead throughout the entire 20-lap STAR Tour Sportsman feature, but it was Clemence who took home the crown. Although Clemence got the upper hand in the race, the “biggest fan club” award went to Guyon, who had a dozen supporters cheering him on. He also gave his trophy to a young fan in Victory Lane. The 20-lap STAR Tour Modified race wasn’t as close as Doug Pickard dominated and won the feature.

Reed Reno held the early advantage in the 25-lap 4-Cylinder Pro over his hard-charging competitors Ben Burgess and Josh Hall. Ben Burgess took advantage of a mid-race restart, powering to the lead as Reed Reno and Josh Hall battled it out for the runner-up spot behind him. A final restart brought the field back together with 6 laps to go and Ben Burgess held strong, taking home the victory as Reed Reno reclaimed the runner-up spot over Josh Hall in the closing laps of the race.

Charlie Colby dominated the early laps of the 40-lap Pro Stock feature. He persevered through multiple cautions that took out heavy hitters like Logan Melcher, Ryan St. Clair and Matt Beers, among others. Jet Decker tracked Charlie Colby down mid-race, taking over the top spot as Colby began to descend through the field. This made way for 2022 Pro Stock champion Kevin Douglass, who made his move with 4 laps to go. He made a clean pass on Jet Decker (1st Pro Stock podium) with just two laps to go, claiming another win in the division. Josh St. Clair followed, rounding out the top 3.
