UNITY -- It didn't matter how many Super Street cars showed up Friday night at Unity Raceway. Nate Weston was still in a class all by himself.

The Madison racer led all but six laps, thoroughly routing the field in the Hight Chevrolet 75. The reigning track champion, who has only run a handful of races at Unity this season after a quarrel about rules prior to the season-opening race there in May, said he felt a small amount of vindication thanks to the victory.

"For me, this is just a little bit of reinstatement for me here," Weston said, after besting only a 12-car starting field for the $800 winner's check. "Now that I've got some time off in the (PASS Sportsman division) schedule, I plan on coming back down here and hopefully winning a few more races in the future."

Weston was most seriously challenged by Josh St. Clair of Liberty, who brought out the second of the race's three caution flags on lap 39 with a flat tire. He stopped at the top of turn three to wait for the yellow flag to be displayed, and then pitted for a fresh tire.

With no rule in place governing such an act, St. Clair was ruled as still being on the lead lap. Yet even as he lined up outside of Weston for a restart on lap 68, St. Clair wasn't sure if he was second -- or a lap down.

"I was hoping I was," St. Clair said of being on the lead lap. "If I wasn't, I was going to prove that I had a car good enough to be in the top three."

Mark Dodge of Anson finished third, the only other car still on the lead lap under the checkered flag. Ernie Wallace of Winterport and Mike Lynch, also of Winterport, were one lap down in fourth and fifth, respectively.

Weston took the lead on lap seven, passing Dodge off the second turn. From there, it was smooth sailing, as he was into lapped traffic early. Even when being tested on that final restart, he still pulled away to win by nearly three full seconds.

"It's never easy at Unity," Weston said. "You can never count on a race here. I've had so many things go wrong, and even though I was far ahead several times, you just can't count on things."

In other racing Friday night, Cary Davis of St. Albans won the 20-lap Pro-4 Late Model main, Tim Hudson of Windsor was victorious in the 20-lap Wildcat feature and Derrick Terrell of Plymouth ended a long winless drought with a win in the 20-lap Mini Stock feature.
