FALMOUTH, Maine – After a pair of wins last season and a runner-up finish in the PASS North Series championship standings, Mulkern Racing heads into 2012 eager to build on the success it forged in the second half of 2011.

New Brunswick driver Lonnie Sommerville is back with crew chief Gary Crooks to run the full PASS North schedule, while team owner Scott Mulkern will run a partial schedule with Seth Holbrook calling his shots atop the pit box.

Both drivers feel all the parts are in place to improve on their strong finish a year ago.

“We can keep things going. We're going to just get better and better, I really believe that,” Mulkern said. “Time is everything, really. It takes time to build all the stuff you need to get it where you want it. If you're working on setting everything up, it just takes time.”

FALMOUTH, Maine – Bobby Timmons is showing that he's a quick study.

Timmons, 19, had never driven anything more than go-karts and Legend cars before this month, but the up-and-coming talent on the New England stock-car circuit is quickly adapting to life in a Super Late Model. Timmons has just three career starts at Beech Ridge Motor Speedway, but he's already opening eyes.

“We decided this was the time to do it. It's been a lot of fun,” said Timmons, of Windham. “It's going good. We've gotten two sixth-places in a row, so I definitely can't complain about that.”

In just his second time out in the Mulkern Racing No. 48 SouthernMaineMotors.com Chevrolet, Timmons rolled from 19th in a very competitive 25-car weekly field to finish sixth in a 40-lap NASCAR Whelen All-American Series event at Beech Ridge.
