Leandra Martin makes history at Wiscasset Speedway
Wiscasset Speedway kicked off the final month of racing Saturday with a full card of action in its Group 1 divisions. Near perfect weather greeted a large and enthusiastic crowd at Maine's fastest oval for the program presented by NAPA Auto Parts. As the 2015 season heads into the home stretch, championship point chases continue to tighten up in some divisions while one title would be wrapped up by night's end.
Just a week after his son Chuck Colby notched his first Late Model victory of the season, Charlie Colby covered the field and took his first checkered flag as well. Other winners on the night included Mark Lucas in the Napa Super Streets, Cody Tribbet in the Thunder 4 Minis, and Kamren Knowles in the N.E.4-cyl Pros. Also on the program were the Senior Tour Auto Racers (S.T.A.R. Tour). #0 Richard Eastman of Merrimac, Massachusetts, took home the victory in the Sportsman class while #2x Charlie Lima of New Bedford, Massachusetts, was the victor in the Modified class. Not to be outdone, Leandra Martin of Richmond would top the night with a history making runner-up finish in the Thunder 4 Minis.
