Race Report by Zach Evans,
Speed51.com --
Dave Farrington, Jr. is
picking up where he left off
at Oxford Plains Speedway in
2020, backing up a runner-up
finish in the Oxford
Championship Series season
opener Saturday with a win
with the Pro All Stars
Series on Sunday.
Farrington, the defending
track champion at the
historic Maine venue, flexed
his muscle in the 150-lap
Sunday feature, ultimately
winning by more than two
seconds over defending
Oxford 250 champion Johnny
Clark.
With things
going so well for Farrington
at Oxford, the only thing he
wants to do is keep the
momentum rolling.
"We
don't want to change a
thing.," Farrington said.
"I'm happy to win here in
the month of April.
Obviously, last year August
was our month. Consistency,
week after week, winning six
of the last nine races here
is pretty dang impressive.
It's put a target on our
back, probably more than
we'd like to have."
Early in the race,
Farrington was content to
ride behind Travis Benjamin
and Joey Doiron as they
battled side-by-side for the
top spot. Once he was able
to get around them near the
halfway mark, however, he
led the rest of the
distance. All along,
Farrington wanted to lead
early and often.
"We
wanted to get going there in
the early part of the race
there, when the 7 (Benjamin)
and the 21 (Doiron) were
playing cat-and-mouse, I
guess. We just wanted to get
out there and run."
Clark finished in the
runner-up spot, continuing a
strong start to the 2021
PASS North season. With a
seventh-place finish at the
Thompson Icebreaker and a
win at the Northeast Classic
at New Hampshire Motor
Speedway, he has established
himself as an early-season
championship favorite.
Marching towards a
record-breaking seventh PASS
North championship, Clark is
relishing a resurgence as a
top-notch competitor in the
Northeast Super Late Model
world.
"It feels
good. We started 11th
because we won at Loudon.
Sometimes it helps to start
that far back because you
get to run your own race and
don't worry about everybody
else, trying to hold
position.
"There were
a couple of restarts where
they'd call the green. You
can pull to the right and I
never passed before the line
but no one would go. It's
Oxford, there's three
grooves here. One time I
went from eighth to fourth.
All of a sudden it was fun,
it's fun again. It feels so
good to be relevant and
competitive again."
Speaking of marches, the
march of the day belonged to
Trevor Sanborn. Despite
starting 27th after a
disappointing showing in
heat racing to start the
day, Sanborn worked his way
to the podium with a
third-place finish.
"We started deep in the
field. We just struggled in
the heat races, started
second to last and finished
second to last. We knew once
we got rolling in the
feature, we'd be fine. It
was just a matter of time,
just clicking them off,
clicking them off, we got
the right restarts in the
right lanes. We had a fast
car."
Tyler King
scored the win in the 50-lap
PASS Modified feature on
Sunday, while Jimmy Childs
beat Cody LeBlanc by inches
to win the North East Mini
Stock Tour feature. |
