The no-repeat streak stayed alive in Oxford Plains Speedway’s top division Saturday night.

Scott Farrington of Minot rebounded from a wreck and a last-place finish a week ago to win the 50-lap Super Late Model feature. He is the sixth different winner in as many events this season.

Farrington made his winning move underneath reigning speedway champion T.J. Brackett midway through the event, denying Brackett his second victory of the season.

He then held off two of Oxford’s all-time greats in order to earn the victory. Jeff Taylor charged from 15th starting position to the runner-up slot, while Alan Wilson continued his strong start with a third-place run.

It was the first appearance of the season in weekly competition for Taylor, who owns a record nine championships at the track.

Scott Robbins of Dixfield and Auburn’s Kyle Treadwell rounded out the top five, with Treadwell making the move to that spot around Brackett on the final circuit.

Zach Emerson of Sabattus picked his second victory of the season in the 30-lap main event for Allen’s Coffee Flavored Brandy Street Stocks.

Known as one of the most consistent drivers in the division throughout his career, Emerson had never previously won multiple features in one season. The result also padded his advantage in the Budweiser Championship Series standings.

Andrew Breton of Sabattus led early before settling for second. Calvin Rose Jr. of Turner was third, followed by Josh Childs of Oxford and Jordan Russell of Norway. Childs and Breton won the preliminaries.

Jacob Hall of Oxford led for the duration in the 20-lap Bandit division feature race. Dan Wade of New Gloucester pressured Hall and held off Jamie Heath for the runner-up spot. Leeds neighbors

Cam Childs and Kyle Hewins completed the top five. They also won the heats.
