Following an unfortunate rainout a few weeks ago, the Ladies Acceleration Tour found themselves scrambling for a new host for their biggest race of the year - a $1,000-to-win bout for the Lady Hornets sponsored by Tooney Looney Rentals & Backyard Events LLC.

Speedway 95 graciously stepped up for the second time this season, adding the race to their Saturday night program.

It was an exciting night all around, featuring the tour’s first-ever time trials, close knit racing and some shake ups that will change the game leading into Saturday’s Championship Day at Wiscasset Speedway LLC.
