Williams Wins Wild American-Canadian Tour Race at White Mountain

For Immediate Release                        ACT-081708-1

    NORTH WOODSTOCK, NH Late Model stock car racer Eric Williams of Hyde Park, VT earned the fourth American-
Canadian Tour (ACT) victory of his career after a controversial incident late in the going in the White Mountain
150 at New Hampshires White Mountain Motorsports Park on Saturday night.  Williams was the benefactor of a tangle
between race leaders and championship point leaders Scott Payea and Patrick Laperle with three laps remaining, and
slipped by for the win.
    Payea, of Milton, VT, led the majority of the race, but raced hard with Montréal driver Laperle during the
middle stages, with the pair trading the lead multiple times.  Contact with three laps remaining sent Payea
spinning, bringing out the fourth and final caution flag of the event.  For his involvement in the incident,
Laperle was sent to the rear of the field with Payea for the restart.  Payea finished 13th with Laperle 14th, the
last two cars on the lead lap.
    Williams, a part-time ACT Late Model Tour racer, currently leading the championship standings at Barre,
VTs Thunder Road Intl Speedbowl, then drove away from Brent Dragon for the win.  Dragon and fellow Milton, VT
native Jean-Paul Cyr finished second and third, respectively.  A pair of New Hampshire natives, 19 year-old Joey
Polewarczyk, Jr. of Hudson and Brad Leighton of Center Harbor, completed the top unofficial top five.
    Glen Luce of Turner, ME finished sixth, with Barre, VT rookie Nick Sweet finishing seventh for his fifth
top-ten finish in eight events.  John Donahue of Graniteville, VT was eighth, one spot ahead of home-track driver
Dan Colby of Lyman, NH.  Colby, a former ACT Late Model Tour regular, posted his best-ever result with ninth
place.  Randy Potter of Groveton, NH finished tenth, unofficially.
    The ACT Late Model Tour is back in action on Sunday, August 31 with the 30th Bond Auto Labor Day Classic
200 at Thunder Road Intl Speedbowl in Barre, VT.  Discount advance sale tickets are available at all 36 Bond Auto
Parts locations in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts.  For more information, call (802) 244-6963 or visit
