After an unfortunate washout last week, Wiscasset Speedway returned to action on Saturday with an action-packed Group 2 racing program which included the T&L Automotive Modifieds, Portland Glass Strictly Streets, Kennebec Equipment Rental Outlaw Minis, Wood Pellet Warehouse Late Models and the visiting New England Pro 4 Modifieds.
Thousands of fans rolled into Wiscasset Speedway on Sunday for the biggest Late Model race of the year, the Coastal 200. The $10,000 to win race, presented by Coldbrook Trailers and GT Overhead Doors, is one of the marquee events of the race season and always draws some of the biggest names in the Northeast. This year was no different as Eddie MacDonald, Mike Hopkins and 3-time Coastal 200 winner Ben Ashline were among those in the field.
For every sport, one of the most anticipated days of the season is Opening Day. Traditionally, Opening Day is a one-time event but Wiscasset Speedway is unique in the fact that the track gets to celebrate two Opening Days to kick off the season.
While the temperature outside continues to cool down in Coastal Maine, the racing action continues to heat up at Wiscasset Speedway. The excitement continued on Saturday as the track hosted a full Group #1 racing program which included the Brackett’s Market 4-Cylinder Pros, Norm’s Used Car Pro Stocks, Sweatt’s Concrete Thunder 4 Minis and the Market 27 Super Streets.
