Dore: EKeys 4 Cars Modified Championship
Epping, NH - It was championship night for the EKeys 4 Cars Modifieds at Star Speedway Saturday, and after a second place finish in the 50-lap season finale, Sanford, ME’s Jacob Dore laid claim to the 2012 title, his first in the headline division at the quarter-mile oval.

2011 champ Josh Cantara out dueled Dore to score the final main event win of the campaign, with Richard Savary finishing third ahead of a hard-charging Vinnie Annarummo.  Second-generation Star racer Sumner Scott had his best result of the year and rounded out the top five.

Gary Grubisa took home a sixth place finish, followed by Brandee Tree, veteran Rusty Ball, Russ Wood, Jr., whose father won a record-setting seventh Star Classic just a week earlier, Bryon Baker, George Sherman, Dave Bitondo, Jodi Johnson, Jason Ferreira, Mike Perry, Mike Douglas, Jr., Karl Fredrickson, Leo Oliveira, Mike Conrad, and Frank L‘Etoile.

The Allen’s Coffee Brandy Outlaw Late Models went at it early and often in their rough and tumble 35-lap feature event, but once the yellow fever subsided, Hooksett racer Jimmy Renfrew ran away in the late laps to pick up his fourth win of the year in his David Joyce-built machine.

Billy Ryder had his best run of the year to finish in the runner-up slot, with Joe Squeglia, Jr. moving up in the late going to score third.  Early-race leader Jimmy Ryder was scored fourth, with Jay Sands, Shaun Waites, Steve Wilmot, Barry Raymond, Jr., Joey Ventrillo, and Rob MacRae finishing up the top ten.

Mike Williams claimed his first win of the year in the Woody’s Auto Strictly Stocks, holding off a tough challenge from Chuck Dehney to collect the victory.  Dehney had moved alongside to challenge at mid-race, but lapped traffic cost him a shot at the lead and he eventually settled for second at the checkers.

Bret Culleton was mixing it up with the leaders in the late going, but he couldn’t stay with the leaders and was scored third across the stripe, followed by Chris Augevich, Bobby Bouchard, Matt Kawejsza, John Cashman, Chris Kingsley, Steve Douphinette, and Dylan Bilodeau.

Seth Stickney grabbed his second win of the 2012 season in the Kimball Auto Body Roadrunners, holding off a late-race challenge from Jarrod Soucy to collect top honors.  George Maroun finished third, with veterans Dana Sullivan and Ken McIlvaine the rest of the top five.

T.J. Bleau grabbed the Star 4 Modified win over Joey Lovejoy, Tommy Stilphen, Jordan Dube, and Brian Bleau, while George Helliwell continued his incredible win streak in the Northeast Classic Lites, picking up his ninth consecutive victory in a nail-biter.

A flat rear tire sent Helliwell spinning to the infield and limping to the pits with less than ten laps to go in the 25-lap main event, but some perfectly-timed cautions and an even more perfectly driven race brought Helliwell back to victory lane for the ninth straight time.
