PLATTSBURGH — After three consecutive weeks lost to weather, Airborne Park Speedway roared back to life on Thursday, July 2, with a packed feature‑only program highlighted by the Firecracker 44 for the Sportsman Modifieds. With extreme heat pushing the start time to 8 p.m., six divisions took the track and delivered a full night of action as several championship battles tightened heading into mid‑summer. Thirteen Mini Stocks opened the evening with the first of two 20‑lap features. The race quickly settled into a three‑car fight among Nick Harnden, Haiden Bordeaux, and Randy Martin. Harnden controlled the pace throughout and secured his first win of the season, moving into ninth in the standings as he begins to chase down points leader Jake Fountain. The RainPro of Vermont Limited Sportsman Modifieds followed with 13 cars answering the call for their 25‑lap feature. Josh Patterson paced the early laps while Cody Gregoopoulos kept him in range, but the charge came from the fourth row as Brogan Roberts and Gary English worked forward. The pair eventually overtook Patterson and staged a tight late‑race duel, with Roberts claiming his first Airborne win of the season. The victory trims English’s points lead to nine. Ten Renegades rolled out next for their 25‑lap feature. Billy Thwaits and Nathaniel Guay battled early before Thwaits steadily pulled away, earning his third win of the season. Guay and Shawn Duquette completed the top three. Thwaits continues to close in on Duquette’s championship lead, now down to 22 points. The night’s main event, the Firecracker 44 for the Sportsman Modifieds, saw Jamy Begor jump to the early lead and fend off challenges from Lonnie Rivers and Jason McClatchie. As the laps wound down, Evan Roberts mounted a charge, taking the lead with seven laps remaining and driving off to claim the $2,000 victory. Begor finished second with McClatchie third. Points leader Nick Heywood finished fifth, and Roberts’ win cuts Heywood’s advantage to 21 points. Thirteen Crown Vics took the green for their 20‑lap feature, with Josh Muir leading early before Richie Turner and Trevor Jaques reeled him in. Turner crossed the line first, but a post‑race rules infraction handed the win to Jaques, who now moves into the points lead by 20 over Scott Richner after three races. The second Mini Stock feature produced another three‑car thriller featuring Speedy Bressette, Jamie Whitney Jr., and Kenny Tourville. Bressette made a dramatic last‑lap pass to earn his second win of the season, moving him up to sixth in the standings. The night concluded with the 50‑lap Enduro, where 22 cars took the track. Nick Cain led early over Nathan Mitchell, but Michael Wright stormed from the rear, took command, and dominated the race by lapping most of the field en route to the first Enduro victory of the season. Airborne Park Speedway returns Thursday, July 9, with a full makeup program featuring all five weekly divisions as the track continues to work through its early‑season rainouts. Gallery
