Jeremy Roy Scores First Career Modified Feature Victory Thursday Evening At Airborne Park Speedway

Story By: AIRBORNE PARK SPEEDWAY – PLATTSBURGH, NY –  Jeremy Roy has spent the last several years watching his younger brother Felix rise to star status on the northeast modified circuit.

Thursday night at the Airborne Park Speedway, it was the oldest of the Napierville, Quebec siblings’ time to shine. It was Hometown Heroes First Responder night at “The Big A” and the sizable crowd on hand was treated to an entertaining evening of racing, as Roy charged from his sixth starting spot to claim his first DirtCar 358 modified victory.

Jordan Fornwalt and George Foley brought the field to the green flag. Fornwalt quickly went to the point and paved the way in the early laps, but it was plain to see that Roy and defending track champion Mike Mahaney, who started eighth, had the fastest cars. Roy slipped underneath Fornwalt on a lap 16 restart and held off Mahaney to cross the line first. The rapidly closing Mahaney had to settle for second with Felix Roy, Chris Raabe, and Tim Fuller rounding out the top five. Foley and Greg Atkins collected heat race wins.

Points leader Tylor Terry continued his dominance in the 9th State Cannabis Renegade division, parking his ride in victory lane for the third time in six starts this season. Tim Wilcox and Tyler Irwin led the field to the green flag, with Irwin leading the first several laps, but Terry was on the move, advancing from eighth to second by lap four. Irwin slipped high out of turn two on lap six, and Terry took advantage. Caution flew on lap 17 to tighten up the field, but no one had anything for Terry. Shawn Duquette, Nathaniel Guay, Irwin, and Brad Bushey completed the top 5. Heat race wins went to TylorTerry and Irwin.

In the J&S Steel Sportsman Modified feature, Nick Heywood hustled the high line to navigate his way from the 14th position on the grid to victory lane, outdueling Jamy Begor for his second win of the year. Begor started on the pole and seemed to have everything under control, but what he didn’t know was that Heywood was slicing through the field like a hot knife through butter. Even after being overtaken by Heywood, Begor changed his racing line and continued to pressure the leader. Heywood was finally able to put some distance between himself and his closest challenger in the closing laps. Donovan Lussier rallied from a trip to the garage area and a restart at the back of the pack to finish third, followed by Fire Swamp and Vince Quenneville Jr. Caleb Durgan, Begor, and Heywood were heat race winners.

As is typically the case, the mini stock division put on an action-packed show in their 15-lap main event. Glenn Engstrom appeared to have the car to beat early on as he led the first half of the race. While Engstrom was cruising out front, defending track champion Ryan Senecal was meticulously weaving his way toward the front. After the midway point, a five-car battle including Engstrom, Senecal, Josh Laporte, Stephen Bressett, and Josh Fountain began to unfold. Senecal survived the fray and pulled away late for his second win of the season. Bresette finished second after starting 27th, Engstrom was third, Fountain fourth, and Laporte fifth. Jp Corrow, Engstrom, and Bresette won their respective heat races.

Gary English has been dominant in the Hoosier Tire Limited Sportsmen Division so far in 2025, but with him not in attendance, other drivers had the opportunity to collect a feature win. Kobe Hernandez recovered from an early race slip-up to come from behind for his second win of the season. Up-and-coming Lea-Jeanne Lauziere jumped out to the lead from her position on the pole and appeared poised to grab her first career win. With the Lauziere machine seemingly losing the handle, Hernandez took command on lap 12 and wasn’t challenged the rest of the way. Chasing Hernandez across the finish line were Parker Dermondy, Raelin Dunham, Garin Thompson, and Lauziere, who recovered from a late race spin for a top-five outing. Lauziere and Dunham won heat races.

Racing returns to Airborne Park on Thursday, June 12, with a makeup night of racing featuring the 358 Super DirtCar Series and DirtCar Sportsman Series in the “Battle of Plattsburgh.” The 358 modifieds will compete for 75 Laps and $5,000 to win.
