VALLÉE-JONCTION, QUEBEC, CANADA – After being disqualified from his heat race in post-race tech, Alex Labbe powered through the field in Sunday PASS North Super Late Model feature, moving past Joey Doiron to score the victory in Sunday’s Thunder Valley National 200 at Autodrome Chaudiere in Vallée-Jonction, Quebec, Canada.

Eight cautions in the first 100 laps would see five cars retired prior to the mandatory caution at lap 101. Durham, NC native Tate Fogleman came to a stop on the inside of turn 1 on lap 2, bringing out he first caution of the day and ultimately seeing that car retired from the race.

Caution would fly three more times for minor spins before lap 8 which would result in Donald Theetge retiring his car from competition. On Lap 46 the caution would fly again as Dany Poulin took a wild ride off turn 1. Poulin emerged from his car unscathed, but unfortunately the same could not be said for the car.

On the restart, Martin Latulippe and Etienne Cliché would tangle resulting in the sixth caution of the day and would see Cliché retired from the race. The seventh caution was the result of debris left on the track when Kevin Roberge broke, ending his day. Caution would fly one more time on lap 81 for a minor spin, before seeing the caution at lap 101 for the mandatory 10 minute pit stop to allow teams to make adjustments, change tires, and refuel.

At the halfway break the top three were Doiron, having moved up from the 11th starting spot, followed the Labbe and Patrick Laperle. Starting fourth would be Ben Rowe, moving up from a 21st starting position. Rounding out the top five would be D.J. Shaw, who started from the rear of the feature in the 25th starting position.

Twenty cars returned to action following the halfway pit stop, with all but one car on the lead lap. Caution would fly on lap 116 for Martin Latulippe, who would retire to pit road. Caution flew again on lap 118 for an incident in turn 3 between Chris Michaud and Martin Goulet, Jr. which would result in both cars being unable to continue. Lap 132 saw the third caution of the second half when Jacques Poulin spun. This would lead to the longest green flag run of the event, 50 laps, before caution was out once again on lap 182 for a spin.

Following re-alignment of the field, William Roberge was shown the black flag for not maintaining his position in line and was sent to the pits. Four laps after the restart, as it looked like the field was sorting out, caution would fly for the final time on lap 186, when Glen Luce and Johnny Clark tangled on the backstretch heading into turn 3, resulting in both cars spinning with Luce hitting the wall in turn 3 ending his day and Clark spinning, losing a lap but able to continue.

Doiron had checked out on the field and had victory in his sight when this late race caution brought the field back in tow and put Labbe to his outside on the restart. When the green flag flew, Doiron would get the advantage, but it would be short lived as Labbe gave Dorion a bump to move him out of the way and take the lead on lap 190. Doiron would return the favor on the following lap and the two would race side by side for the next several circuits before Labbe would clear Doiron on lap 196 and go on to score the win.

Doiron would hold on for second, with Laperle third, Shaw fourth and Tyler Dippel in fifth.

The annual PASS 400 weekend at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway in Scarborough, ME, also a PASS National Championship Series race, is scheduled for Friday-Sunday, September 12-14.
