5 SUPER STREETS Ricky Bly has caught fire at the right time by winning his third feature of the season and his second in a row. Jack McClay and Craig Smith led the Super Streets to the green to start their 40-lapper, with a lap-one jingle putting the caution flag quickly in play and sending a handful of cars pitside, forced to then refire from deep in the field. Among those losing valuable turf were Mark McClay and Ben Poland. Jack McClay and Smith paced the thundering pack for the first five go-rounds, with Dylan Bodreau then storming into the deuce slot and gluing himself in McClay s shadow. Ricky Bly claimed third on lap ten and the lead trio ran nose-to-tail. Bly, who entered the night s action with a slim, four-point, lead over Bodreau in his quest for back-to-back titles, was in perfect position when the Bodreau/McClay wobble occurred on lap 15. Seizing the momentary opportunity, the Sunapee speedster quickly took the lead and then never looked back en route to his third win of the summer, his second in as many weeks. Bodreau spent the rest of the race glued to Bly s bumper but had to settle for second on this night. Jack McClay was strong in third, with Poland and Mark McClay recovering from their opening-lap woes to finish fourth and fifth. Bly now leads the points parade by seven markers. Smith, who struggled with mechanical bugaboos throughout the event, finished 14th on the night, suffering a big hit to his title aspirations. - Gary Dutton 5

9 STREET STOCKS Bryan Town was a repeat winner in the Pepsi Street Stocks after taking the lead from his teammate on Lap 12. This was Town s fifth feature win of the season. Dave Greenslit set fast time for the first ten laps of the Pepsi Street Stock 25-lapper, then giving way to points leader Bryan Town, who d started back in row four. Seven-time 2018 feature winner Chris Riendeau, who entered the night s action only seven points behind Town, got up for second on lap 16 but could advance no further. With the race run caution-free after lap one had been completed, Town s blistering pace was no match for the rest of the field. He would take the checkers nearly 20 lengths ahead of Riendeau. Lenny Silver, currently third in the title chase, was also third on the night. Greenslit came home fourth, with Robbie Streeter earning the five spot. Town s four-point gain on the night, left him 11 ahead of Riendeau entering next Friday s twin-25s. - Gary Dutton 9

10 Chris Riendeau finished second for his tenth trophy of the season. Riendeau is only 11 points behind Town in the point standings.

14 WILDCATS After originally finishing second, Zach Lyn was awarded the win, his sixth, after post-race technical inspection. In the T-Bird Mini Mart Wildcats, divisional super man Zach Lyn was second fastest on the track but tops in the tech line to expand his championship points lead to more than two weeks worth of markers over his closest competitor. As September nears, Lyn s second title in a row seems almost a foregone conclusion. Zach Lyn won the caution-free Wildcat 25-lapper after Jim Carley s first-under-the-checkers ride fizzled in tech. Rookie Haydon Grenier, who d earlier scored his first career heat race win, was again rock-solid in second, with rookie phenom Kyle Templeton coming home third. Seth Melcher and Raven Streeter completed the top five. - Gary Dutton. 14
