lost to rain) and some familiar faces were on the podium. The late

Clark in third. Rowe came home first in the series' inaugural
appearance in 2002, with "Sud'n" Sam Sessions in the runner up spot
and Kirk Thibeau third.

While this will be the first extra distance PASS sanctioned event at
Speedway 660, PASS regulars have fared well in the tracks annual open

and Kirk Thibeau has visited victory lane in Speedway 660's extra
distance event as well.

Clark, Rowe and Thibeau will all be on hand for Saturday's showdown,
and entries have been filed for Travis Benjamin, Kelly Moore, Richie
Dearborn, Super Sophomore DJ Shaw, Adam Bates, Scott Alexander, Rookie
John Danbrowski and Nick Ribbe.

are all expected to make the trip to take on the Maritime racers on
their home turf. Shawn Turple, Lonnie Somerville, John Flemming and
Marty Prevost have all competed successfully with the PASS touring
regulars this season.

After four of the fourteen event 2009 PASS North schedule, Johnny
Clark is on top of the points heap , leading a surprisingly strong
Chris Staples by sixteen points (875-858). Derek Ramstrom trails
Staples by just six points in third. Ben Rowe sits in fourth, two
points back from Ramstrom (852-850) and Adam Bates rounds out the top
five with 849. Clark has two feature wins (Unity Raceway, Speedway 95)
