Claremont, N.H. — James Civali
became the second multiple winner this year on the
NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour with a victory in the
Allstate 100 at Twin State Speedway Sunday night.
Civali and Matt Hirschman waged a torrid battle over
the final thirty laps before Civali took the lead
for good from Hirschman on lap 93 of the 117-lap
event.
It was the second victory for the Meriden, Conn.
driver this season. He also won the season opener
at Thompson (Conn.) International Speedway in April
and it was the third win of his career. Civali, who
drives the Don King owned Ramar Hall Chevrolet also
earned the Featherlite Most Improved Driver award.
Civali took the lead on lap 27 from Ronnie Silk and
led all but one of the next 90 laps
“The car was perfect tonight," Civali
said. “Matt Hirschman was real good on the
restarts I did what I had to do to stay in front
of him.”
Matt Hirschman’s second-place finish moved
him into second place in the points standings. Hirschman
trails Donny Lia by 53 points. Bud Pole Winner Ronnie
Silk of Norwalk, Conn. was third. He was the only
other driver to lead a lap at Twin State besides
Civali and Hirschman.
Lia, of Jericho, N.Y., finished
fourth and Ted Christopher,
of Plainville, Conn., was fifth.
The next event for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour
is at Riverhead Raceway on August 4.
