Josh St. Clair visited Unity Raceway's victory lane following the 30-lap Super Street feature last Friday night in what would never be deemed an upset. The same brand new race car finished third the week before when Josh's grandfather, Dave St. Clair, drove it, proving it to be a strong piece, and Josh is a multi-time Late Model Sportsman winner at his home track of Wiscasset Raceway.
Josh told Dave he could beat his 3rd place finish, and the larger than life Boss Hogg told him to go ahead and try.
Same car, same engine, same everything -- except for the driver in the seat. Asked after the win what had made the difference, Josh shrugged and said he wasn't really sure. Then the tall and wiry teen offered one small detail.
"Well, we shaved a few pounds off the driver, and that really helped it in the corners," Josh said.
