PLATTSBURGH, NY. -- Middlebury, V.T.’s Justin Stone won Thursday’s Be Cool Heating and Air Conditioning 358 Modified Feature at Airborne Park Speedway over Mike Mahaney and Chris Raabe, securing his first-career 358 win.
Patrick Dupree and Tanner Siemons led the field to green with Dupree taking the early lead, but the caution fell on the first circuit as Felix Roy slowed on the backstretch. He retired to the pit area and did not return. Upon the restart, a melee in turn three brought out the yellow flag again.
Things picked up from there, and as the race got going Siemons took the lead from Dupree, but Justin Stone was advancing quickly, He took the lead from Siemons on lap four. As Stone worked through lapped traffic some laps later, Mike Mahaney passed Franklin Mackin for 3rd position and then took down Siemons three laps later.
Another pair of yellows slowed the race on lap 18 as Steve Bernier went for a spin, and then Mackin and Jordan Fornwalt crashed in turn one. Upon the restart, Stone pulled away, leading the final 12 laps to earn his first modified win. Mahaney was 2nd with Raabe 3rd, Jeremy Roy 4th and Tim Fuller 5th.
In the J&S Steel Sportsman, Donovan Lussier won his third race of 2024 on a green-white-checkered restart after a last-lap incident in turn one with Josh Jock and Dave Camara. Charlotte Morin and Pat Miner battled for the lead up front, but the kate yellow grouped the field together again with Lussier and Heywood having charged from the back. Lussier held the bottom lane well off the second turn and pulled away for the win over Heywood, Miner, Max Dolliver and Codie Aubin. Morin wound up 6th.
Nate Guay won an exciting 9th State Cannabis Renegade feature over Zack Daniels. Hunter Sawyer and Levi Bombard led the field to green for the 20-lap affair. Daniels started 6th and made his way forward early, taking the lead on lap five, while Guay moved into 2nd behind him. Tylor Terry got into trouble early and went outside, returning in the late stages several laps down.
Guay then took the lead from Daniels on lap nine and held it for the remainder of the race. Daniels closed in at the end, leaving Guay with a margin of victory of just .245 seconds. Josh Terry was 3rd, earning the Precision Heating and A/C $50 Hard-Charger bonus. Shawn DuQuette was 4th and Bombard was 5th.
In the Moore Recycling Mini Stocks, it was Rick Doner collecting his first win of 2024. Doner started 11th and took the lead from Chris Clark on lap eight. Nick Harnden crossed behind Doner for 2md, but failed to make weight post-race and was disqualified. Clark was awarded 2nd with Ryan Senecal 3rd.
