It’s the Keeseville NAPA Mini Modifieds’ turn for an extra distance race at Airborne Speedway Saturday.
    Airborne promoter Mike Perrotte has announced that the 30-lap special will pay $250-to-win with an additional $100 bonus for a first-time 2010 winner.
    Banker Orchards, X-Plo/EZ Sto and Riverside Lanes are sponsoring the event.
    Steven Bresette of Keeseville and Rick Doner of Ausable Forks, currently 1-2 in the championship point standings, are the most likely to be battling for the win in the closing laps. Bresette has two wins and eight top-5 finishes. Doner has won four races. Randy Martin and Justin Doner are the only other Mini Modified drivers to carry the checkers so far this season.
    Jim Collins of Morrisonville is the highest-ranked Mini Mod competitor without a win. Collins sits fifth in the standings, two points behind Justin Doner.
    The Mini Mods have been a key contributor to Airborne’s weekly car count. Twenty-five entries started last week’s main event, won by Bresette.
    The Ernie’s Discount Tools Modifieds, J&S Steel Sportsmen, Versatile Trailer Sales Renegades and Monster Energy Bombers will also be in action.

On behalf of the family, the prayers and thoughts have been overwhelming. We appreciate everything that everyone has done and continues to do for our family. Mike is smiling down upon us and is proud to have called you all dear friends.
