Ramstrom
Repeats at Star
Dearborn dominates, late
cautions set up wild finish |
NEPPING NH (5/14) – Derek
Ramstrom returned to the site of his
first Pro All Stars Series super
late model win and claimed the lead
on lap 148 of the 150 lap feature to
capture his first PASS North win
since July of 2009. Ben Rowe raced
home in second with Joey Polewarczyk
third.
Richie Dearborn
dominated ninety percent of the
night. Dearborn started on the front
row and fought off a handful of
restart challenges, opening up a
comfortable lead each time. But late
in the race his ride went off song
and Scott Chubbuck ate away at his
lead and took control with eight
laps to go.
But on lap 144
the yellow flag flew, setting up one
of the wildest finishes in the Pro
All Star's 200-plus feature race
history.
Chubbuck was now in
control with Johnny Clark to his
outside and Joey Pole on his bumper
with Dearborn back to fourth. When
the green waved the top three were
beating and banging to the extent
that Chubbuck, Clark and Polewarczyk
wound up parked on top of turn two.
Dearborn shot under them all to
reclaim the lead with Lonnie
Sommerville second. Ramstrom to
third and Joey Doiron fourth when
the caution flew.
The next
green didn't stay out for long.
Dearborn spun out of the lead with a
tire that finally went flat and
Derek Ramstrom threaded the needle
to capture the top spot. Doiron made
it all the way to second with Ben
Rowe now third for the
green-white-checker finish
Ramstrom shot into the lead when the
final green flag flew and Rowe was
looking under Doiron for second.
Doiron's great run ended with the
checkered flag in sight when the
2010 PASS North Rookie of the Year
took a trip into the front stretch
wall. When the dust settled Ramstrom
had his third PASS North career win,
Ben Rowe crossed the line in second
on a flat right rear and Joey Pole
came back to where he started when
the late race melee began, in third.
Lonnie Sommerville crossed the
stripe in fourth and Scott Chubbuck
recovered to salvage a top five.
Point leader Johnny Clark came home
eighth.
Ramstrom's margin of
victory was .974 seconds; nine of
the twenty two starters finished on
the lead lap. Heat race wins went to
Polewarczyk, Dearborn and Doiron.
The Pro All Stars are back in
New Hampshire for another quarter
mile throw down at North Woodstock's
White Mountain Motorsports Park on
Saturday May 21. PASS super late
model qualifying goes green at 4:00
