Bradford, VT | Sept. 24, 2011- Champion stock car driver Adam Pierson put an exclamation point on his 2011 season by winning the second annual New England Dirt Track Championships presented by The Home Depot, Lake Sunapee Bank, Miller Auto Group, and Gary’s Tire & Auto at Bear Ridge Speedway on Saturday night in front of a packed house. Pierson capped his title-winning season in the Bond Auto Parts DIRTcar Sportsman Modified division by winning the 50-lap season finale and pocketing the $1,000 winner’s purse.

By virtue of winning a special New England Dirt Track Championship qualifying race on July 16, the Fairlee, VT driver started inside the top-six for the main event. After trailing Gary Pierson for several laps, Pierson took command before halfway and led to the end for his fifth victory of the season. The 27 year-old driver of the No. 15 CDR Concrete/Wing’s Market & Deli-sponsored Bicknell chassis clinched his seventh career championship last week.

Another former champion, Vince Quenneville, Jr., of Brandon, VT, finished second in just his second start of the season. Chris Donnelly of Piermont, NH was third ahead of Siemons and Jason Gray. Kevin Chaffee, Justin Comes, rookie Josh Sunn, Dan Eastman, and Jim Morgan completed the unofficial top ten.
