3•11•07 Wallingford Racing motors powered C.W. Sirjane and Darrin Mees to the Pro Open and SemiPro Open wins respectively. If not for a crash in the second qualifying round for Open, C.W. may have very well been number one qualifier. C.W. went 1, 8, 2 in qualifying to set up his second Pro win in as many weeks.

In the Pro Stock final, C.W. had a decent start and was holding down the number two position until Jason Boron won the drag race to the finishline and he had to settle for third. With two point races left on the season, C.W. is tied for second with Jason Boron as both drivers get to drop one of their races.

In the Pro Open final, C.W. came out fourth at the start and worked his way to the top early on only to battle back and forth with Jason Boron. Then Wallingford power kicked in and C.W. scored his second Pro win of the season. Currently, C.W. sits in second place in the Open points chase and is within striking distance for the title!

Darrin Mees scored SemiPro win number 7 on the season when he checked out on the field in the SemiPro Open final. The win put Darrin in the points lead, 11 points ahead of Dale Petrus with two to go on the season. Win number 8 was one lap away until Darrin got tangled up with Jason Stone as they came upon lapped traffic in th SemiPro Stock final. The crash netted Darrin a disappointing eighth place finish, but he still holds a whopping 48 point lead over second place in the point chase.

Garret Mees was coming off a hot 3 for 4 performance in Skowhegen and looked to continue his streak in Barton. Garret ripped off Upper and Lower Junior qualifying sweeps, but had to settle for 2nd and 3rd podium finishes instead. The bright side is that Garret contiues his hold on the top spot in both classes by 18 and 17 point margins with one race to go! Garret did manage to score his 3rd straight Upper Junior RMR East Division win on Sunday.

We going to change Sara's number from 288 to 222 for the last race! You guessed it, Sara scored her rubber stamp finish of 2nd in the Jr. Girls 600 Fan class. Sara had fight through a broken chain gear in the second round, but still managed a 4th place finish.

Jordan came back strong in the Junior Girls 600 Fan final for a solid third place finish behind Sara and Janelle Smith.

In the 300 Freestyle ranks, Jordan went 2 and 2 in Saturday's qualifying and earned a hard-fought third place finish in the final. Sunday's racing came a bit harder as Jordy went 8, 4 and 4. With one point race left on the season, Jordan currently sits in second place for Saturday's chase and third for Sunday's chase.

Once again, we want to thank Debbie Mees for the great photos in Barton and Skowhegan. She has Mike sweating his position as team photographer, so he better step it up in Big Boulder! As usual, all our success can be directly attributed to our phenominal sponsors! Wallingford Racing, Ski-doo/XPS, WSI, Woody's, New England Race Fuels, Progressive Motorsports and all the rest.

Injuries Impact HMS Riders

Harrison Motorsports regretfully is forced to finish the 2007 season without the services of Simon Belzile and Doug Decoigne.

Simon was showing signs of his Championship winning form with steady progression as the season wore on. A hard crash in the Pro Open final at the Ossipee, NH race ended Simon's season. Not only was Simon a threat on the the track, but passing his knowledge on to our younger riders was a tremendous asset for our team's success. Simon scored the emotional X-Games Qualifier win at Windham in December to start the aseason out on a high note.

Doug Decoigne has been nothing but a true warrior for Harrison Motorsports this season. Highlighted by his big SemiPro Shootout win in Schaghticoke, Doug's energy and drive to win was infectious in the HMS pits. Doug suffered a season ending leg injury this past weekend in Skowhegan and will be sorely missed by everyone on the team. Doug was on pace to a potential class championship or two as he sat atop the SemiPro Stock points chase and was 6 points out of 1st in Open before this weekend's race.
