N. Woodstock, NH — White Mountain Motorsports Park is getting back in action this Saturday, September 4 with the Leaf Peepers 100. After a weekend off for the Oxford 250, the North Woodstock track has a mammoth September planned with multiple major touring series and big events.
The final month of White Mountain’s 29th racing season begins on Saturday with a 100-lap showdown for the Foley Oil & Propane Late Models. Just three point-counting events are left, meaning the long-distance showdown is big for the “King of the Mountain” title.
Jeff Marshall, Quinny Welch, and Oren Remick need to make hay while the sun shines if they’re going to catch Candia, NH’s Jimmy Renfrew Jr. Saturday also includes championship action for the Wells River Chevrolet Flying Tigers and Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Stock Mini’s plus the Dad’s 4 By Tool & Supply Kids Trucks.
The following Saturday, September 11 marks the return of the North East Mini Stock Tour. The second WMMP visit of the season for the region’s preeminent four-cylinder series is paying $1,000 to the winner. Stars like Emerson Cayer, Erin Aiken, Cody Leblanc, and Desmond Skillings know how rare a four-figure prize is, and the racing will reflect this. The Late Models, Flying Tigers, Strictly Stock Mini’s, and Arnold’s Wayside Diner Dwarf Cars make it a five-division card.
On Saturday, September 18, Foley Oil & Propane presents the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) Super Late Models. They will go 150 laps in their second White Mountain trip of 2021. Point leader Johnny Clark of Hallowell, ME must hold off Ben Rowe, Dan Winter, Kate Re, and Rowland Robinson Jr. if he wants to win his first PASS championship since 2011.
The 18th is also Championship Night for the Late Models as they crown the 2021 “King of the Mountain”. An ACT event the following weekend could lead to some interlopers getting tuned up, making it possible for a big points comeback to happen. The PASS Modifieds and Kids Trucks join the penultimate weekend for 2021.
Everything comes to a head with Fall Foliage Weekend on Saturday, September 25 and Sunday, September 26. Saturday at 4:00pm is the R&R Raceparts NH Fall Foliage 100, a $5,000-to-win event for 8-cylinder Street Stocks and ACT Flying Tigers. Entries have arrived steadily for the biggest Street Stock race ever at White Mountain. The Strictly Stock Mini’s, Dwarf Cars, and Kids Trucks wrap up their 2021 seasons the same day.
Then on Sunday the 26th at 1:00pm, the ACT Late Model Tour is back for the $5,000-to-win Fall Foliage 200. It’s the 10th event on the 12-race ACT schedule, so it will be huge in their championship quest. If the race is anything like the Midsummer Classic 250 or Spring Green, fans are in for a memorable show.
The Flying Tigers have their title ride on the same day while the Burnett Scrap Metals Road Warriors of Thunder Road, GoMotorsportsShop.com NELCAR Legends Tour, and NELCAR Bandoleros come to town for some Northern New Hampshire racing. A $35 two-day adult ticket makes it affordable to get out for a weekend at the track before banquet preparations and offseason work take over.
White Mountain Motorsports Park begins the stretch run this Saturday, September 4 at 6:00pm with the Leaf Peepers 100 for the Foley Oil & Propane Late Models. The evening includes a full card for the Wells River Chevrolet Flying Tigers, Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Stock Mini’s, and Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kids Trucks. Admission is $15 for adults, $5 for kids ages 6-12, and $30 for a family of four (2 adults, 2 kids).
