Brian Cunningham of Bucksport and Paul Pinette of Bowdoinham took home the top honors from the Winterport Dragway’s awards banquet last week at Jeff’s Catering in Bangor.

Cunningham was the season’s point champion in the Eliminator Series while Pinette won the point title in the Motorcycle Series.

Cunningham outpointed Jerry Hatch of Lubec 168-to-152 in winning the title. Third place went to Paul Bickford of Rockport.

Pinette’s 90 points were just enough to eke out a four-point advantage over Bill Stanley of Medway. Steve White of Jay was third.

Mark Piper of Hancock was named Rookie of the Year; Hatch was named Sportsman of the Year; and Ellery Dyer of Auburn was Motorcycle Driver of the Year.
