Epping, NH – The highly-anticipated return of the American Canadian Tour Late Models highlighted Saturday night’s program at Star Speedway, with local favorite Joey Polewarcyk, Jr. of Hudson claiming a milestone win in the 150-lap main event, duplicating the result he had the last time the ACT visited Star back in the 2013 season.
 
Dover’s Wayne Helliwell, Jr. broke out from the pole to lead the first 30 laps before heading to the pits with rear end issues, with Rich Dubeau of Plainfield taking up the point from there.  Dubeau held serve for the next 60 circuits, when Polewarczyk made his move to the lead. Once out front, 2014 ACT champ Polewarczyk was unstoppable, leading the remainder of the race to collect his 20th career series win by nearly a half lap, moving him ahead of Jean-Paul Cyr and Patrick Laperle to sit alone in second on the all-time ACT Late Model win list.
 
After the grueling 117-lap green flag run that finished out the race, Dubeau collected a solid second place finish that unofficially puts him atop the season point standings, with tour rookie and 2017 Star LM feature winner Ryan Kuhn of Bridgewater, MA taking home third. Fourth went to Jonathan Bouvrette of Blainville, Quebec, Canada, with Bryan Kruczek of Newmarket rounding out the top five in the Bobby Webber Racing, Vynorius Piledriving entry. Trent Goodrow of Carver, MA was next across the stripe, with Scott Payea of Colchester, VT, Star regular Erick Sands of Hampstead, Jimmy Hebert of Williamstown, VT, and Matthew Kingsbury of Blainville, Quebec the remainder of the top ten.
 
It took three heat races and a consolation round to set the field for the Woody’s Auto Street Stock main event, which saw Chris Curtis break Alby Ovitt’s stranglehold on victory lane with his first win of the 2019 campaign.
 
At one point late in the race, Curtis and his sons Jaret and Chase held down the top three spots, but Ovitt eventually broke up the family reunion at the head of the field. At the checkers, it was Chris Curtis in for the win, followed by Ovitt, Chase Curtis, former champ John Cashman, “Mad Max” Dolliver, Jaret Curtis, Tim Boyle, Shane Gendron, and Jim Bolstridge.
 
Maddy’s Car Wash Six Shooter action saw J.T. Cashman of Danvers, MA taking advantage of a skirmish among the leaders to blast to the lead, and he went on to post yet another win. Nate LeClair of Fremont checkered second, with Seabrook’s Adam Knowles, Brandon Flanders of Seabrook, and JoJo Roberts, Jr. of Dover closing out the top five.
 
Mikey LeFort grabbed another feature win in the Lucky 13 Fast 4’s, with Tim Bolger, Jr. and Tyler Almeida.
