Wayne Helliwell Jr., domi-nated the rain delayed WhiteMountain 150 from the pole onSaturday at White MountainMotorsports Park to score hissecond career win on theAmerican Canadian Tour andpad his point lead. Helliwell ledall 150 laps starting from thepole to pull away at the checkersin an otherwise uneventful race.Joey Polewarczyk, Jr. won ahard fought battle for the run-ner-up position, beating EricChase who completed the podi-um. Austin Theriault and BrianHoar completed the top fiveafter swapping paint severaltimes in a door-handle to doorhandle battle over the final laps.Helliwell buried the field, lap-ping all but the top 11 cars andeasily pulling away on eachensuing restart. The 150-lapevent was completed in one hourand five minutes with eight cau-tion periods for minor spins andskirmishes. It was Helliwell’ssecond career ACT win and hissecond win in three events. Thewin keeps the Dover driver atopthe point standings just aheadof Polewarczyk, who claimed hissecond straight runner-up finishand his fourth top five in thefirst five events. Helliwellalready qualified for the BondAuto ACT Invitational at NewHampshire Motor Speedway onSaturday, Sept. 22 with hisSpring Green win at Devil’sBowl Speedway in May. Otherqualifiers to date include, BrianHoar, Ben Ashline, Karl Allard,Donald Theetge and NickSweet.

Sunday was a day of firsts forClint Bowyer in the ToyotaSaveMart 350 at Sonoma: hisfirst win of the season, his firstwin since joining MichaelWaltrip Racing during the offseason, his first career roadcourse win and the first win ofthe season for owner MichaelWaltrip. Bowyer dominated theevent leading a race high 71laps registering his sixth careertrip to Victory Lane in the Cupseries while inking the fifth vic-tory of the season for Toyota.Tony Stewart edged KurtBusch, who had dogged theleader hard as the race wounddown, for second on the finallap. Brian Vickers, also drivingfor MWR, finished fourth fol-lowed by Jimmie Johnson infifth, his ninth top-five of theseason. Matt Kenseth stretchedhis point lead to 11 over GregBiffle while Dale Earnhardt Jr.,dropped to third, 14 pointsbehind Kenseth.

Nelson Piquet Jr., enjoyed alot of firsts during the NASCARNationwide series Sargento 200race Saturday at Road America.A regular in the NASCARCamping World Truck series,Piquet Jr., used his first careerpole and laps led to earn hisvery first NASCAR nationalseries win on the Wisconsin

road course. In his third careerNASCAR Nationwide start, thenative of Brazil drove a flawlessfinal 17 laps with the lead, earn-ing a 2.258-second victory overrunner-up Michael McDowell.He led a race-high 19 laps andalso becomes the first Brazilianto win a NASCAR nationalseries race. “It’s difficult to putinto words what I’m feeling,”Piquet Jr. said. “I think we hada great week since the first prac-tice. I learned the track quitequickly and the team helped meout quite a bit.” Piquet didn’tfight too hard for the lead untilafter the halfway mark, but thatwas a strategic move in order tosave fuel in case there was agreen-white-checkered finishlike last year where the 4.048-mile course caused mayhem onpit crews trying to have enoughfuel to finish the race. “I couldhave fought harder in the mid-dle of the race but there was noreason why,” Piquet said. “Iwasn’t going to accomplish any-thing. I just held back a little bitand when it was the rightmoment I attacked. It was onone of the restarts where Ipassed Jacques [Villeneuve] andmoved quick through the fieldand led the race at the end.”McDowell and Ron Fellows fin-ished where they started, at sec-ond and third respectively. MaxPapis and Sam Hornish Jr.rounded out the top five.

Trampas Demers made areturn to Thunder Road’sVictory Lane in the Late ModelStock Car division lastThursday night driving hisfather’s familiar No. 86 automo-bile after a hard wreck in June17 event.

Demers wasecstatic to be back in VictoryLane at the ‘Road.’ “What agreat race with Dave(Whitcomb). He gave me all theroom I could have asked for. It’sbeen awhile, but it is so good tobe back,” said Demers. “Greatnews is my car is even betterthan this one, and it will be backnext Thursday,” South Barre’sChris Pelkey emerged the victorin the Bond Auto TigerSportsman feature after endur-ing a ruthless side-by-side battlewith rookie Jason Woodard.

Garage GarbleFor Dale Earnhardt Jr.,

“when” has become “what’snext?” With a four-year, 143-race victory drought decisivelybroken the previous week atMichigan International Speed-way, Junior can shift his focuson both long-term and immedi-ate goals. Earnhardt and crewchief Steve Letarte—who alsoended a lengthy non-winningstreak, 115 races dating to2009—are in the thick of the

NASCAR Sprint Cup Serieschampionship hunt. MattKenseth, who finished third atMichigan, retains the standingslead going into Sonoma , butEarnhardt’s victory cut the mar-gin to four points. The last timeEarnhardt held the points leadwas October 2004. “I want to tryto win a championship. That’swhat you run the whole seasonfor and our team has really,really good speed now,” saidEarnhardt, who qualified forlast year’s Chase for theNASCAR Sprint Cup™ after atwo-year absence and finishedseventh. “We ran well last yearin the Chase, but we weren’t inthe battle for the championship.

Joe Gibbs during Michigan’srain delay, explicitly stated thathe has no intention of lettingJoey Logano go at season endwhen his contract expires andthat he plans on resigning the22-year-old for the 20 car.Rumors had JGR replacingLogano at season end with thefloundering Kurt Busch, butLogano’s recent win after a 104-race winless drought at Poconoshushed the ole rumor mill andappears to have cemented hisseat with the team.
