Shaw, Martin, Hewins PASS Oxford winners

 

Oxford ME (10/15) It was Champions Day at Oxford Plains Speedway for all three Pro All Stars Series (PASS) North racing series Saturday, and Andy Shaw (PASS Mods) and Carey Martin (PASS Sportsman) both claimed their respective divisions championship in style by winning their season finales.

 

For Shaw it was a fitting end to a dominant season. The Center Conway NH racer's 2011 record is enviable; 10 starts, 7 wins and 9 top five finishes kept Shaw on top of the standings all season long, and moved him to the top of the PASS Mod record book as the division's winning-est driver.

 

Ron Henry looked like he had a shot at victory in the early going. Henry took off and left the field in his dust with Dana Reed and Travis Buzzell giving chase. But Shaw was on the move, passing his Uncle Dale for 4th on lap 15, Buzzell for 3rd on lap 18 and on lap 21 the defending series champ was second. Three laps later he took over the top spot and set sail. It was Shaw by a straightaway at the checkers with Ron Henry in the runner up spot and Dana Reed third.

 

Carey Martin carried a slim five point lead in the PASS Sportsman standings to the season finale, and the 2009 series champ did exactly what he need to do. Martin won his heat race and dominated the 75 lap feature to put an exclamation point on his second PASS title. Craig Smith took the second spot from Clyde Hennessy with 11 to go; Frank Wear and Rusty Poland rounded out the top five.

 

The Wildcat/Strictly Stock fifty lap Open was a wild affair dominated by Leeds racer Kurt Hewins. Corey Morgan ran up front all day and raced home second with Chris Warming third.

 

All three PASS North touring series will celebrate the season on Friday evening November 4 at the Howard Johnson's Convention Center in Portland Maine. Drivers, team members, sponsors and fans are all welcome to join in the festivities. Visit www.proallstarsseries.com for all the details and a printable ticket order form.
