Aug 6/2014 race report
« on: August 09, 2014, 01:05:32 PM »
The August civic holiday pushed our race to a wednesday night, which allowed
mother nature to take a night off from her usual "rain" on race night.
We have 3 Tuesday races before kids are back in school before the Labour Day
Wednesday race.

We've yet to recieve on update on flagger, Wayne Stainton,  but Cathy
Pellizzari stepped up again to run the flags for the Beg/Jr/Sr races. Janet
Hall stepped up the run the computer scoring  which allowed Lawrence to go
trackside to be a flag marshall. That allowed David Chesterman to have a
night off from trackside.  Some different people in different positions but
the night still went off smoothly.

The Lubricare Center (Tillsonburg) Beginners was missing 50% of the
competitors so Noah Longthorne joined the juniors and held his own. Next
tuesday Noah will be battling for Beginner class supremacy aboard a QRC
shorty next week. Noah(Innerkip) took 1st place for the night running
1st,1st,1st

The Smale Powder Coat Juniors had a couple of teams on holidays this week
but the action was still intense with different winners in each race. With
the Beginner division running at the same time it made for some entertaining
viewing as the drivers had to negotiate a slower class car and continued the
tight racing within their own class. The drivers continue to impress with
driving/racing skills and the younger drivers with less horsepower only run
a 1/10 sec. slower than the seniors. After the dust has settled on the night
there was a tie for 1st between Tom Pellizzari(Courtland)/Nick
Sheridan(mt.Brydges), 2nd was Kyle McGlone(Union) and 3rd was John Jackson
Jr.(Port Stanley).

The John Costello & Associates Seniors are a tight group on the track. Skill
level has raised within all the teams. Scott Hall took advantage of front
row starts and almost had a perfect night. In the final feature race Scott
went high coming out of corner 4 which allowed Eric McGlone to tuck inside
and get the drive to make the pass. That finish was reviewed the next
morning on the camera system - 4 different sets of eyes reviewed the footage
from the different angles available and the finish is now posted on MyLaps.
After the points were tabulated it was Scott Hall (Wilsonville) in 1st, Eric
McGlone (Union) 2nd and Cameron Davidson (Brantford) 3rd.

The X-Pert division put on an entertaining show in each of their featues as
1st feature had chain derails and front brake failures to make things
interesting. 2nd feature had 3 cars trying for the same inch of track on lap
1. 2 cars into the wall, some bent sheet metal but only 1 car retired for
the night from a shifted seat issue. After the points were tabulated the
night champion was Austin Giles (Aylmer) , Cody Coburn (Mt.Brydges) in 2nd
followed by Holly Porter (Langton) in 3rd

Next race, Aug 12 2014
