Wiscasset Speedway held its weekly races last Saturday. The warm summer day turned into a cool summer evening, and the cars raced under the big lights. Fans were gathered to watch five races: Strictly Street, Outlaw Mini’s, Late Model Sportsman, Modifieds, and the flex race of the week was the Amsoil Nelcar Legends. 
First on the track were the Strictly Streets for a Spotlighted main event of thirty-five laps. Heat winner Bryan Robbins of the #51X started at the pole with the #51 of Kyle Hewins beside him. In third was Chanler Harrison of the #85. 
When the green flag waved over the track, Bryan Robbins and Kyle Hewins raced door to door. Behind was a battle for third, with the #83 of Dan Brown moving from his sixth place start to third when he passed Harrison on the back stretch during lap one. 
Brown headed to the outside line during lap six, looking for second, but was unable to complete a pass and fell back into line. The #8X of Ethan Dinsmore brought out a caution during lap eight. On the ensuing restart, Harrison sped from forth to second, and Kyle Hewins leaped to the lead. Bryan Robbins fell to third, and Brown to forth. Brown was able to claim third once again during lap nine when he passed Bryan Robbins on the inside.
Leaders changed during lap eleven when Harrison went sideways coming out of turn two and bringing out the second caution of the race. Brown moved to second, and Corey Morgan of the #26 slid into third. Still in the lead was Kyle Hewins. On the restart, Kyle Hewins and Brown raced side by side. Brown snuck ahead, gaining a lead during lap twelve, but a determined Kyle Hewins regained his ground, and by the following lap was once again race leader.
Coming up from his seventh place start was the #55H of Kurt Hewins. Kurt Hewins passed Morgan on the outside of the back stretch, taking third, during lap thirteen. The yellow came out during lap thirteen, and when racing action resumed, Brown began racing Kyle Hewins for the lead. Brown headed down to the bottom of the track and passed Kyle Hewins for the lead during lap fourteen.
Kurt Hewins was looking for his opportunity to gain position on the track. His chance came during lap fifteen, and he passed his brother, Kyle Hewins. Kurt Hewins continued his advance up the track, looking for first. During lap eighteen, Kurt Hewins was able to get under Brown, and he snagged the lead. Brown fell to second. Kyle Hewins was still in third.
There was a caution during lap twenty-nine, and on the restart, Brown, who was on the outside, fell to third, with Kyle Hewins moving to second. Race leaders remained constant until race conclusion. Kurt Hewins took the checkered. Kurt Hewins was point leader heading into tonight’s race. He will stay in first with Saturday’s win. Kyle Hewins placed second. Brown rounded out the top three in third. Brown is second in points, only four down from Kurt Hewins. Third in points is Dave Brannon. Brannon is six points below point leader, Kurt Hewins.
“It was a great race,” Kurt Hewins said. “It was even better I shared the winner’s circle with my brother, and my son won at Beechridge. I want to thank Mr and Mrs. Brown of Brown Construction, they are the car owners. A special thanks to my dad, Bub, and my girlfriend, Del for putting up with my long hours in the garage.”
In two weeks there will be Outlaw Mini Madness. A seventy-five lap race to the finish on Father’s Day weekend.
