Last Saturday was warm at Wiscasset Speedway, although there was a threat of rain showers. The show slid smoothly along for the race fans gathered to watch, and the rain stayed at bay, giving the racers the chance to compete on the track. Presented Saturday were its group one lineup of divisions: Prostock, Super Stock, New England 4-cylinder Prostock, and Thunder 4. 

The flex race of the week was a 100-lap Enduro feature. There were 32 cars racing for the win, and the track was crowded. When green flag racing began, the cars began to move. When the dust cleared, the No. 3 of Randy Henderson was in first. Behind him was the No. 99 of Phil Main Jr., and the No. 55 of Kevin Sherman. 

Coming up from the back of the pack was the No. 22 of Dave Thurlow. Thurlow was driving a station wagon. He was expertly weaving through lap traffic, and by lap 20, Thurlow had a commanding lead. Behind him in second was Sherman, and in third was the No. 19 of Ryan Chadwick. 

With 66 laps to go, three cars went wide into turn one, and the No. 6 of Brianna Bodman hit the turn one wall and the car flipped onto its roof. When movement on the track resumed, the race leaders proved their strength, and were able to maintain their track positions until lap 78. Thurlow, driving the station wagon, got a flat tire and headed to the pits. Sherman moved into first. Chadwick moved to second. Phil Main Jr. moved to third. Lap 80 saw Chadwick head to the pits with mechanical issues. Phil Main Jr. moved to second. The No. 79 of Steven Turner moved to third. The race leaders remained unchanged for the remainder of the race. Sherman placed first, Phil Main Jr. took second, and rounding out the top three was Turner.
