It would be the eighth night of racing of the season at the Airborne Speedway powered by the New England Ford Dealers and it would be the popular Make a Wish Night brought to you by the Liquor and Wine Warehouse. First out of the box would be the Renegade makeup feature from the July 1st event and it would be a battle up front between Bill Thwaits and Tyler Irwin Bill Thwaits would get at the line after a bunch of early cautions on the night to give him his second win of the night. Then it would be the makeup feature for the Street Stock and it would see Greg Zindler get the late-race victory when Josh Laporte had issues in the closing laps. Then it would be onto the heat races for the races that were on the schedule for this evening and the first up would be the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified and the winners would be Josh Jock, Beau Reeves, and Michael Wright. Then the Northern Blacktopping Limited Sportsman Modified would be out for their one heat and the winner would be Tyler Travis. Then next we would have the Street Stock on tap and the heats would go to JJ Laporte, Jason Bradley, and Josh Laporte. Then to finish off the heat racing for the night would be the Hartson Total Opening Renegades for a pair of races and Tyler Irwin and Zack Daniels. Then it would be onto the features for the night and it would start with the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified for their 25 laps event. It would be slow to get going as there would be four cautions in the first hand full of laps but once the race got going it would see Josh Jock pull away with the lead but there would be a hard charger coming in the wake of Fire Swamp and with 3 laps to go he would be right on the back of Jock and would take the lead with two to go and claim his first win of the season. Then it would be the Northern Blacktopping Limited Sportsman Modified and it would be the Tyler Travis show as he would run away for the win. Then it would be the Taylor Rental Street Stock for their main and this time it would be a 25-lap event for them and it would come right down to the wire for them and it would be Jake Fountain getting the win over JJ Laporte as they came off of turn four and there was a traffic jam as they were going to the checkered. Then to finish off the night would be the Hartson Total Opening Renegades for there 25 lap event and with Zack Daniels starting on the row it would be a case of Daniels getting the lead and going away and heading although Tylor Terry and Nthaniel Guay would round out the top three. Airborne Speedway will be back in action very quickly with a race on Tuesday, July 18th as they will be finishing up their event from the July 8th show. Gallery
