Timmons, Rose, Grammont, Cashman & Connor Grab Checkered at Star Star Speedway PR The Star Speedway weekly divisions kicked off their regular season with 5 of the 6 Star divisions in action Saturday night. The 350 Supers, Late Models and Six Shooters were all running their first event, joined by the Pure Stocks and Street Stocks, running their second features of the year. In the J&S Paving Supermodifieds it was Bobby Timmons III grabbing his first win of the 2021 season. Timmons made his move by early race leader Keith Morrill and attempted to separate himself from the pack. First to attempt chasing down Timmons was Tom Tombarello in his #98, and then eventual 2nd place finisher Jeffrey Battle in his #14. Battle was able to close in with a few laps remaining but couldn't make the pass, while Tombarello hung on for 3rd. Charlie Rose Jr. took down the checkers in the 50 lap feature for the Ken Izzet Construction Late Models. Rose started from the pole and led all 50 laps in route to victory in his Helger’s South Coast Power Equipment, Simpsons Auto Care, sponsored entry. Following Rose to the line was Matt Lowinski Loh in his Auto Go sponsored #17, and Joel Belanger having a strong run and taking down 3rd in his #25. The Woodys Auto Street Stocks saw the #57 of Luke Grammont take the win. Grammont was in a close battle with 2nd place finisher, the #7 of Shane Gendron in the closing laps, but was able to hold him off to the finish. In 3rd was the 22 of Jim Storace, who rebounded from an early race incident to score a solid finish. The Six Shooters presented by Murphy and Sons Roofing saw the #7 of JT Cashman taking down the first feature win of the year. Cashman closed out the race with a comfortable margin over 2nd place finisher, the #9 of Brandon Mailhot. Following Cashman and Mailhot to the line was Joey Fraser in the #37, taking down the final spot on the podium. James Connor took down the win in Pure Stock action in his #00 Pasta Loft sponsored entry. Connor started from the pole and maintained control of the event despite a persistent challenge from eventual 2nd place finisher Erin Aiken in her #33. Finishing in the 3rd spot was George Riley Jr. in his red #34. Star Speedway continues their season next Saturday night, May 8 with the Granite State Pro Stock Series in action. Joining them will be the NELCAR Legends, NEMA Lites, Mia’s Jewelry Slingsots, and Pure Stocks. The first event of the night will roll off at approximately 3pm. |
