Trask jumps out early for win

At Wiscasset Raceway Saturday night, Chelsea’s Dan Trask didn’t waste any time getting to the front during the 50-lap heavyweight demon class feature at Wiscasset Raceway Saturday night.

Trask started third but slipped inside pole-sitter Steve Peirpont of Cushing coming out of turn two on the first lap and he went on to claim his ninth win of the season.

Trask and Peirpont pulled away from the field and when fast-charging Dale Chadbourne of Woolwich broke a belt after climbing from 13th to fifth in just 10 laps, they were free of any challenges.

The margin of Trask’s victory was eight car lengths over Peirpont.

Adam Chadbourne, who started second, crossed the finish line in third place. Trask, Peirpont and Dale Chadbourne were the only drivers who finished on the lead lap.
