Despite the bad weather in Southern New England, cold and raw Star traveled north and rolled into Monadnock Speedway, Winchester, New Hampshire on Saturday May 10^th to sunny and warm conditions.  The stands were filled with fans and the pits filled with cars, it was going to be a perfect night for racing at Monadnock Speedway.

Star started their day with afternoon warm-ups for both Sportsmen and Modified divisions.  The Star tech inspectors were busy inspecting the Star cars getting them ready for a great night of racing.  The hospitably of Monadnock was first class with all the staff of Monadnock coming by the Star pits to say “Hello”.  Many fans visited the Star pits to look over some of the finest restored vintage racecars in New England.

In the evening Star was geared up for two 15 -lap features.  The Sportsmen hit the track first for their 15-lap feature.   Darryl Dutch in his #6 took over the led with Bob Bateman in his #17 closing in on Dutch.  The checkered flew down on the #6 of Darryl Dutch from Rhode Island in his 1973 Ford Pinto, originally driven by Maynard Troyer.  Bob Bateman from Rhode Island finish off with a very close second in his #17 a 1978 Chevy Pinto and new driver to Star Jay Spillers from MA in the #44 a 1937 Chevy coupe finish third. 

Then the Star Modifieds hit the track for their 15-lap feature.  Close to the pack, bumper-to-bumper these grand old modifieds showed the fans what racing was like back in the “Good Old Days”.  Roland Cassidy from NH pulled his newly resorted 1979 Ford Pinto #01 to the front.  Dewitt Davis from NH in his #211 a 1932 Chevy Sedan and Danny Ferland also from NH in his #21 a 1974 Ford Pinto ran side by side to the finish.
