HERMON, Maine — For the second time in the four races run in the Dysart’s Late Models at Speedway 95 this season, the feature race was won by mere inches when Brenton Parritt of Steuben held off a late charge from 2013 champion Andy Saunders of Ellsworth Saturday night.

Parritt started the 40-lap race in eighth, took the lead from Corinth’s Lloyd Nickerson on lap 7, and led the rest of the way to the checkers.

Meanwhile, Saunders, who was driving a car borrowed from Orrington’s Jim Robichaud, locked into a battle for second with Ryan Deane of Winterport. Saunders secured second place on lap 35.

Deane finished third, Nick Jenkins of Milo was fourth and Andrew McLaughlin of Harrington was fifth.
