AMES True Value
NEMA Wins |
On Saturday evening 8/2, the Northeastern Midget
Association rolled into one of its favorite stops of the
year, at the Wiscasset Speedway. 2019 Champion Avery Stoehr
came back after a wreck at the Hudson Speedway to take down
the NEMA portion of the show, and Jim Santa Maria returned
to victory lane in an emotional, well earned victory in the
60 lap LITES special, his first return to victory lane in 13
seasons. The evening was sponsored by AMES True Value, a
long time supporter of NEMA and the Wiscasset Speedway.
In the heat races, Avery Stoehr took down the first
heat, in blistering fashion setting the scene for later in
the evening over Paul Scally and Nathan Byrd. Matt Merry
took down an impressive win in heat 2 over Randy Cabral and
Doug Cleveland. In the LITES division, youngster Mike
Pernesiglio took down heat 1 over Randy Cabral and Paul
Scally. Avery Stoehr took down heat 2 in the Scrivani 21
over Tiana Kibbe and Jake Trainor.
The night commemorated NEMA legend Dave Humphrey. Humphrey
took his first midget ride in 1946, at the age of
twenty-one, and won his last midget race in 1986, at the age
of sixty-one. In between, he won seventy-two Northeastern
Midget association feature events, and six NEMA driving
championships. Both marks are amongst the top ever in the
club's 42-year history.
When the green flag flew in
the LITES 60 Lap special, Jim Santa Maria blasted out into
the lead in his family owned #97. Quickly, Santa Maria began
to set a torrid pace at the front of the field, clicking off
laps of 14.4 seconds consistently lap after lap. Behind him,
the action was heating up. Paul Scally came from deep in the
field, mythodically working his way to the front, as he
passed points leader Jake Trainor for second on lap 30.
In front, Santa Maria was steadily pulling away from the
field. By lap 50, he had lapped up to 4th place Dylan Coutu,
who was having his best run of the season, from 12th place.
Trainor would pass Scally back for the runner up spot on lap
53, but was not able to gain ground on Santa Maria.
Santa Maria would go on to take down his first win, followed
by Trainor, Scally, Coutu, Richie Coy, Mike Pernesiglio,
Drew Eldridge, Brandon Egan, Ethan Dion and Tiana Kibbe.
In the NEMA Midgets feature, Avery Stoehr started in the
5th spot, and quickly blasted to the front of the field.
Stoehr was first by the third lap, and was never challenged,
enroute to winning by nearly 1/2 lap. Randy Cabral and John
Zych came from 9th and 7th starting positions to finish
second and third, followed by Nathan Byrd in the Bertrand
17, Doug Cleveland, Richie Coy, Mike Horn, Paul Scally, Matt
Merry and Jake Trainor. |
