NORTH WOODSTOCK, N.H. — Kasey Beattie bested a stellar field to win the 48th Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Fall Foliage 200 for the Milton CAT American-Canadian Tour Saturday night at White Mountain Motorsports Park.
Nick Sweet and D.J. Shaw brought the 28-car field to green with Shaw taking the early advantage on the outside groove. The 2006 King of the Mountain faced off with 2023 King of the Mountain Kasey Beattie in the early goings with Beattie taking over the top spot by lap 17.
The whole-field stop for fuel on lap 50 did little to slow Beattie’s advance, once again running away with the lead on the return to green. While Shaw kept him honest, it wasn’t until the lap 150-mark that Jesse Switser made a valiant effort to the front and stole the lead away.
It was short lasting with Beattie back on the throttle and never looking back to take one for the home team against the ACT invaders. Beattie took the $5,000 Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Fall Foliage 200 win with Shaw and Switser following him across the stripe.
Jack Dumas brought the NEMA Midgets to the green flag for their 25-lap dash. Randy Cabral quickly stalled Dumas’ early run, leading by the halfway point and never looking back to take the first NEMA Midget win at White Mountain since 1995. Brayden Egan and Mike Horn completed the podium.
The NEMA Lites returned later in the program for the Shane Hammond Memorial 50-lap showdown with Mike Pernisiglio and Brayden Egen back to lead the Lites to green. Pernisiglio showed the way early but it was Egan using the highside to steal away the top spot. A mid-race caution pitted Egan against hard-charger Zach Martinez but Egan once again turned on the afterburners and launched away with the lead and, ultimatley, the win in the Shane Hammond Memorial over Martinez and Randy Cabral.
The PASS Super Late Models returned to White Mountain for the third and final time in 2026 with Ryan Kuhn and Wayne Helliwell, Jr. bringing the field to green for their 150-lap showdown. Kuhn dominated the first half of the event but it was Jimmy Renfrew, Jr. who swept in under the crossed-flags to take the lead on lap 75. Perhaps most impressive was Alexendre ‘Fireball’ Tardif’s hardnosed fight to stay on the lead lap just ahead of Renfrew and Kuhn for well over 50 laps before the much-needed caution on lap 120 following Jesse Switser’s turn two spin.
Renfrew had the restart in the palm of his hand as Johnny Clark and Gabe Brown got physical in the battle for second behind him. One more caution for mechanical gremlins under the hood of Pat Corbett’s machine made for a four-lap shootout the end. Renfrew and Brown came to the line side-by-side but Jimmy Renfrew, Jr. handily took down the win over Gabe Brown and Johnny Clark at the line.
