SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19th, 2020 7th Place Finish
A win in the
heat, while posting a lap in the 11.8s.
Started from 11th as a past winner and moved
towards the front. Contact with a lapped
car on lap 15 knocked the front toe out,
and the car was not right from then on.
Running with the fast front pack - up to
5th. Then caught up in The Big One in turn
3, lap 78. Pitted for a damage check and
adjustments. Back on track at the back.
Johnny worked his was back thru the field to
a 7th place finish. And a jump to 2nd in
points - behind DJ Shaw - ahead of Travis
Benjamin, Ben Rowe, Gabe Brown, and Nick
Sweet. |

2nd Place Finish |
|
|
|
|
|
From
the
Speed 51
race report
Perennial contender Johnny Clark charged his
way up from a 12th-place starting spot to
finish second, as he continues the hunt for
his elusive first Oxford 250 title. Clark
feels strong about his chances this year.
"The car hasn't been this good at Oxford
since the 250 last year, so it seems like
the timing is right for us," Clark stated.
"We've been struggling here, the last race
here we went three laps down. We didn't
bring anything back the same, except for the
chassis of course, and it's a lot better
car. Just need a little more and maybe we
can run with some of those Distance cars." |

SUNDAY, AUGUST 9th, 2020 - THE MIDSUMMER
CLASSIC 150 -
10th Place Finish
A start from
12th after last race's win per PASS rules.
At the green, nice progress towards the
front on another hot day. Looking like a
sixth place finish, when a tire goes down
right at the end, and the #54 falls to
10th. |

PRESS RELEASE -
Groveton, NH -
Johnny Clark reminded everyone in attendance
Friday night at Riverside Speedway why he is
a six time champion as he dominated the Pro
all Stars Series first visit to the 1/4 mile
since 2018. Clark, who has not been first to
the checkers since 2016, fended off
challenges from several drivers but was
never seriously challenged in the 150 lap
tilt. "It's been a long time since I have
had a car that good," he exclaimed in
victory lane, "it was fun, but there was oil
or something on the track those last few
laps and we almost slipped and gave it
away."
As dominating as Clark was
leading the entire 150 lap contest, it
wasn't as easy as it looked. "We made
wholesale changes after the first practice,
and it was just terrible. I knew, we all
knew after the second practice we had to put
it back. It was not easy, there were a lot
of changes. I'm glad we did!"
Clark
was challenged early by Eddie MacDonald who
seemed to maintain the torrid pace but not
able to mount a bid for the point. Meanwhile
3 time 2020 winner Nick Sweet was making his
way to the front, trying to balance the art
of saving some tires while also trying to
close the gap on the front runners from his
11th starting spot. "That's the trick,
maintaining that balance while trying g to
run them down but still have something left
at the end. We are definitely happy with the
finish."
Macdonald held on for the
final podium spot while point leader coming
into the race Travis Benjamin nailed down
the fourth spot. Defending champion DJ Shaw
rounded out the top 5. The race was slowed
by a single caution on lap 91.
Clark's win was career triumph number 40 on
the all-time list as he bested a stout 17
car field. |
