PASS North: Ben Rowe declared Full Fendered Frenzy winner

NAPLES, ME, JULY 14, 2008 – The Pro All Stars Series (PASS) North
super late models made their annual trip to Thompson International
Speedway Saturday night for a 75 lap shootout and The Full Fendered
Frenzy definitely lived up to its billing. The wild night featured
great racing, two attempts at a green, white, checkered finish and a
post race ruling by PASS officials that declared Ben Rowe the event
winner. Although Rick Martin took the checkers first, he was penalized
for jumping the final green flag and relegated to second place in the
official order of finish.

Martin took the lead at the initial green with Trevor Sanborn in tow.
The duo was able to pull away from the pack early on. A lap six
restart allowed Sanborn to take away the top spot for three laps
before Martin regained the point.

Sanborn continued to challenge Martin and retook the lead on a lap
fifty restart. Sanborn's lead would once again be short lived as the
bumps in turn one sent him skating up the track ,allowing Martin and
local PASS stand out Derek Ramstrom by for first and second.
Ramstrom's run through the field was well received by the Thompson
faithful, who have witnessed three consecutive weekly super late model
wins by the West Boylston Massachusetts teenager.

Ramstrom and Martin put on a fearsome battle for the lead, but Martin
slammed the door on Ramstroms' repeated attempts to make a move on
the bottom. The first green, white, checkered attempt of the night
proved to be Ramstrom's undoing; Martin moved up the speedway ,
making contact with Ramstrom who in turn made contact with the
concrete, ending a great run that could easily have resulted in
Ramstroms' first PASS North victory.

The second green, white, checkered attempt saw Martin jump out in the
lead with teammates Ben Rowe and Trevor Sanborn in hot pursuit. When
the checkers flew the unofficial top five were Martin, Rowe, Johnny
Clark charging by Sanborn for third and Ramstrom back to fifth. But
Martin's two car length jump prior to the drop of the green prompted
series officials to declare the finish unofficial and the resulting
review reversed the top two in the order of finish.

PASS North has the upcoming weekend off, allowing many teams to travel
to Orange County Speedway in Rougemont North Carolina for round two of
the inaugural PASS National Championship series, The Southern Sizzler
200, on July 18th and 19th. PASS North makes its' annual visit to
