NEMA Lite's Meg CuginiTops the Field at Monadnock, NH

Posted by Wayne G. Barber

PAUL SCALLY - MEGAN CUGINI - ANDY BARROWS
In the Lites race, young star, Meg Cugini jumped out into the lead from her second starting position. She set a quick pace and pulled away from the field, until a caution at the halfway point tightened up the field. Cugini would line up next to veteran, Andy Barrows. Cugini got the advantage on the restart, despite Barrows making a run at her a few times over the next couple of laps on the bottom.

"I was just thinking to myself that I needed to hit my marks over the final laps. It feels great to take down a big win like this," said Cugini. "This win goes out to my brother, Danny, who for the first time was able to watch me race versus racing along side of me. I'm glad I could make him proud. It also goes out to my Dad who works so hard on the car each week and our sponsors - Bob's Collision Center, World Wide Preowned, Bumper to Bumper Accessories and Avratin Law," she said.
Andy Barrows put in a strong run to finish second, and veteran Paul Scally had his second consecutive podium finish with an impressive run. Following them across the line were Scott Bigelow, Paul Bigelow, Anthony Payne, Jim Cataldo, Dennis O'Brien, Jeremy Decourcey and Randy Cabral.

 Miss Megan Cugini joins;  Erica ( Santos) Pitkat 2007 at Stafford Springs NEMA and Bethany Stoehr NEMA Oct.7, 2013 at Waterford and I hope I did not exclude any others in the Female Winners in this Historic Racing Division

The NEMA schedule resumes this coming Saturday at the New London Waterford Speedbowl for the Jim O'Brien Memorial, with both the full NEMA cars and the Lites taking center stage at the Bowl. All of NEMA's standings and action can also be followed on the series website at www.nemaracing.com
