Loudon, NH – Eddie MacDonald of Rowley, Massachusetts won segment one of the two segment ACT All-Star Challenge at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Saturday, September 13. MacDonald outran current ACT point leader and defending champion Brian Hoar of Williston, Vermont.

 

MacDonald took the lead early from the outside pole but had to battle with Joey Laquerre of East Montpelier, Vermont. MacDonald broke out to a comfortable lead before Hoar chased him down in the final laps. Hoar ran out of time after just getting to MacDonald’s bumper as they worked through lap traffic.

Tom Carey, Jr. from New Salem, Massachusetts came from the eighth starting spot to take third, followed by Laquerre, and Austin Theriault completed the top five. Série ACT Castrol competitors Karl Allard, Alex Labbé and Donald Theetge took the sixth through 8th positions. Wayne Helliwell, Jr. and Brad Leighton completed the top ten.

The second and final segment will be 50 laps and will be run at 6:15pm. The top 36 finishers from segment #1 have been inverted for the start of the second. Drivers receive points (1 for first, 2 for second, 3 for third, etc. to 44 for forty-fourth) for each segment. The overall ACT All-Star Challenge winner will be determined by the lowest combined score.
