Loudon, NH — Greg Biffle made a “text book” late lap pass to capture the SYLVANIA 300, the first race in the “Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup.”
“I love this race track and with the old car we ran extremely well here – almost won a couple – top-fives everytime we came, and then when we came with the new car we haven’t run very good until today,” said Biffle. “We finally got onto something that worked here and the race car just drove phenomenal right off the truck. It was really fast. ”

Seekonk, MA — When Rick Martin arrived at Seekonk speedway, he had just enough time to unload his Toyota and roll out for the second Seekonk Sport Truck qualifier. By the end of the night, he found himself in Victory Lane for the first time an a few years, ending his longest dry spell of his career. “My day started out at 5 to go to NH and race. We broke the engine and I looked at my watch and knew I could still make it to Seekonk.” Rick stated in Victory Lane. “I have to thank my father for helping me. I called him and asked him to load the truck so we could get here. I would not have made it in time if it wasn’t for him.”
As the field came down for the green flag in their 30 lap main event, Mike Ronhock got sideways as the field headed into turn one, with Brian Murray spinning and Lenny Guy making contact. Ronhock and Guy would be able to continue. This would put John Paiva to the outside of Billy Clark on the restart. The Arcand Spring Ford of Clarke got the jump, and led the first lap, but as he slid up the racetrack, the Phil’s Propane Chevy of Bill Prisco moved down low and picked up the lead. Following Prisco was the Silver Key Inc. Chevy of Jody Tripp. And Charlie Rose Jr in the Sanford Tree Experts Ford.

Epping, NH – The new 100-lap green flag format for the 43rd annual All-Star Classic may have resulted in one of the most exciting races in recent times here Saturday night. After a shaky start, the century grind developed into an awesome -almost indescribable battle between Chris Perley and Jon McKennedy for the win. For almost 60 laps they fought tooth and nail out front. In the end Perley took home the trophy but it was the road to fruition that led to the prize that brought the most gratification.
