Breathless: Rich Hammann Gets First Victory Of 2025 In Limited Late Model Feature At Stafford 

Rich Hammann went by Norm Root III for the lead on lap seven and led the rest of the way to victory in the 20-lap Limited Late Model feature Friday at Stafford. 

It was the 12th career Limited Late Model feature win for Hammann and his first since Sept. 27, 2024. 

“It’s been a tough year,” Hammann said. “It’s not like we haven’t been there. We just haven’t been in the right place at the right time and just been on the bad deal of things, the bad end of things. Tonight was our night. I don’t think I breathed the whole damn race. They’re getting faster. I don’t know if it’s me, I’m getting old or slow, I don’t know.”

Kevin Cormier of Springfield, Vt. was second and Jeremy Lavoie of Windsor Locks was third. 

Aaron Plemons of Uncasville scored his sixth win of the season in the 20-lap Street Stock.

Tyler Trott of East Hartford was second and Kolton Gambacorta of Ellington third.
