STAR'S ANNUAL BREAKFAST ON SUNDAY MORNING

 

 

TWIN STATE SPEEDWAY

Twin State Speedway in Claremont , NH was the first stop for the double-header weekend for the Senior Tour Auto Racers.  On July 18th Star rolled into Twin State Speedway with warm greetings from owner Dennis Fleury.  Star’s day was going to be a busy one with warm-ups from 12:00 till 3:00 and after warm ups Star held its annual picnic.  Hamburgers, hot dogs, steaks, fruit, salads and deserts of all sort covered the Star picnic tables.  It was nice to see the owner Dennis Fleury, his wife and the officials of Twin State all stop by and have a bit to eat and good conversation with the Star members before racing began.  It was hot with overcastted skies.  Rain was in the forecast but it was all up to Mother Nature now.  Star’s first 15-lap feature to roll out onto the track was the Sportsmen Division.  Bob Bateman from RI in his #17 Ford Pinto took over the lead half way through the race to take down the checked for the Sportsmen division.  James Allen from Ma in his #46 Monte Carlo finishes second and topping off third place was Dick Murphy from Ma in his #V8 Ford coupe.  Star’s second 15-lap feature was the Modified Division.  Charlie Lima from Ma in his 2X coupe and Skip Stearns from NH in his #84 Pinto battled side by side for first place lap after lap, only to look into their rearview mirrors to see veteran Bob Pringle in his #92 coupe, Danny Ferland in his #21 Pinto and Dewitt Davis in his #211 sedan breathing down on Lima and Stearns. With five laps to go Ferland made his move to take down the checkered for the modified division.  Lima and Davis battled it out for second place. Lima crossed his 2X coupe over the finish line to take down a second place. Topping of the field for third place was Dewitt Davis from NH in his #211.  The top three place winners from both divisions were taken to Twin State ’s Victory Circle to be interviewed, to take photos and presented with trophies. Star would like to thank all the members who brought dishes of food for the annual picnic.  Star sends out a very special thank you to Twin State Speedway for their hospitality and a great night of racing

CANAAN SPEEDWAY

Canaan Speedway in Canaan , NH was the second stop for the double-header weekend for the Senior Tour Auto Racers.  On July 19th Star cars from MA, NH, CT, RI, VT and PA filled the Canaan pits.  Canaan Speedway scheduled the track for the Star cars to practice from 1:00 till 4:00.  As Star got ready to have their warm-ups Mother Nature had another thought? The rain came and I mean it came!  It poured so hard the grounds were flooded.  I was sure no racing was going to take place that evening.  It rained from 1:00 till 5:00 with a halt as fast as it came!!  The sun broke out and it was off to racing for the Canaan Speedway.  All divisions tow trucks, cars, including Star cars dried off the track and it was time to go.  Star was schedule for two 10-lap heats and two 15-lap features. Ronnie Bodge from NH in his beautiful restored antique car paced the Star cars in both the heats and features.  In the Sportsmen heat it was anyone race.  The battle was on as each lap a different car took over first place.  Only on the last lap James Allen from Ma in his #44 coupe shot to the front and took the first checked for the tour that evening.  In the modified division who was going to cross the line first?  Every lap brought a new winner until Anthony Kubalak from PA in his #6 Mayard Troyer car took the lead to take down the second victory for the tour.  Then it was time for the Sportsmen 15-lap feature race. The Sportsmen put on quite a show.  Tight to the pack bumper to bumper lap after lap until Rick MacDowell from Ma in his #76 Pinto pulled to the front to take the win for the Sportsmen 15 lap feature division.  David Scott from NH in his #5 coupe took a very close second.  To finish off third, David Poskitt from Ma in his #77 coupe crossed only by a nose to beat Dick Murphy in his #V8 coupe.  MacDowell took his victory lap with the checked flag and then had an out of car interview with photos and presentation of the victory trophy.  Then the modifieds hit the track for their 15 lap feature.  Bill Cummins from Ma in his #195 Pinto took over the lead to capture the win for the modified division. Charlie Lima from Ma in his 2X coupe and Skip Stearns from NH in his #84 Pinto battled for second place.  When the flag came down it was Stearns taking Lima by a nose for second place.  Charlie Lima topped off the pack with a third.  Bill Cummins took his #195 around the track for his victory lap and then had an out of car interview with photos and presentation of the winner's trophy.  Star would like to thank Canaan Speedway for a great night of racing and for all their hospitality.  Star will be returning to Canaan Speedway for another great night on racing on August 16th.
