ACT Tour PR Race Report - Vermont stock car racer Scott Payea of Milton grabbed his second American-Canadian Tour (ACT) victory of the season and of his career in the Kancamaugus 100 at New Hampshire’s White Mountain Motorsports Park on Saturday night.  Payea led on two occasions, including the final 18 circuits after passing Turner, ME’s Ben Rowe.  With his win, Payea becomes the first multiple winner in nine ACT Late Model Tour events this year.

“It means a lot to get a win at White Mountain,” said Payea in victory lane.  “This is where I started racing my Late Model back in 2004, this is where I learned how to race these cars.  I passed Ben Rowe on the outside lane for the lead, and that felt pretty good, he’s one of the best there is.  This is a big win for my team.”

Rowe, a multi-time champion in various forms of New England short track auto racing, passed Payea for the lead on lap 61, but was outgunned by Payea one lap after the race’s third restart, which came on lap 81.  Incidental contact cut Rowe’s right-front tire, and he fell out of the race two laps after losing the lead.  Rowe was credited with the 27th finishing position.
