Story By: AIRBORNE PARK SPEEDWAY – PLATTSBURGH, NY – Nick Heywood nailed down the 30-lap Sportsman feature event win Thursday night at the Airborne Park Speedway.
Heywood collected his first win of 2024, climbing from his 16th starting spot. Robert Gauthier and Matt LaValley led the field to green for the 30-lap, $1,500-to-win feature.
Vince Quenneville started 4th and led early on, but Travis Bruno made his way up from 9th to take the lead on lap 10. A lap 12 restart saw Heywood join Bruno on the front row, and Heywood drove away from the field in the middle of turn two, going on to win by 2.6 seconds over Bruno, Fire Swamp, Donovan Lussier and Quenneville.
Tylor Terry won the 9th State Cannabis Renegade Feature after an exciting battle with Zack Daniels. Terry started 9th and was 2nd by lap eight, tracking down Daniels and finally getting by him on lap 18 when Daniels appeared to slip up in turn two. Terry navigated some light traffic and kept Daniels at bay, who finished solidly in 2nd. Shawn Duquette completed the podium with Billy Thwaits and Tyler Irwin rounding out the top-five.
The Moore Recycling Mini Stocks ran two features, splitting up the field with a pair of 20-lap races, each paying full A-main points and prize money. In the first feature, Speedy Bresette claimed his first win of 2024 over Steven Bresette. Jamie Whitney, Jr. turned in his best run of the season in 3rd.
