Heard Craig"the glazed ham" graham won the race. I heard something like 14 cars. Connolly started pole, led almost all of it. But a blown engine(slowel or slappy help me out here) ended her evening. Also heard brandon watson finished 3rd.

Top 5 were: Craig Graham, Brandon Watson, Charlie Gallant, Dan Lawler, Randy Bull.

Other Cars in attendance were: Larry Crowe Jr., Amanda Connelly, Don Hart,  Jason Tremble, John Pollock, Dwayne Fulford, Jim Feeney, Adrian Foster, and i'm not sure who was driving the 41 but it looked like the old Don Hart machine

Heard Graham and Connally were the ones to beat but AC blew a rearend seal with 5 or 10 to go what a heart break also heard Gallant gave the kid a bonk for second.

14 cars made the LLM feature.  Good racing in the heats.  Connolly got one, can't remember the others.  This will all be from memory so please correct me if I make mistakes.

As mentioned, Connolly had pole and pulled out with Graham right behind and Gallant third.  The front two pulled away about half a straightaway with Gallant holding up 4th on back to some degree - he couldn't get it pinned to the bottom cleanly but got out of the corners well. 

Watson started aroung mid pack and worked forward to 6th behind Lawler then at around quarter way pulled an amazing move low in 1 to get position, held on and took 5th.  Took 4th then got to work on Gallant.  It took a LONG time, he raced Charlie clean and nearing the three quarter point finally took third at about the same time Graham slid by Connolly. 

The last caution was for a blown motor on Connolly's machine.  It was a shame - she was quick and clean all night and had it sewn up.  The restart had things moving fast - Gallant got a piece of Watson and got by, Watson was not too happy but kept his cool - damn impressive considering he isn't old enough to get his G1!  Graham cruised off to the win with Gallant second and Watson third.

3 cautions at laps 23, 31 and around 80.  Congrats to everyone - it was an awesome race to watch.

Four Funs had about 9 cars, Minis had 20.  One red flag in the Mini feature as two cars climbed to turn 3 wall.  Legends had good numbers, something like 20-22 cars.  Sorry, didn't get winners there as we were helping in the pits.

Edit:  Apparently Connolly blew a rear end, but it didn't smell like rear end oil.  I dunno - either way it did leave a trail of oil but a small one.   Maybe Amanda can fill us in.

Dan was probably running the same car he was running at Varney in the invitational on the Sunday of the long weekend. #5?

Actually there were 2 #66 cars, Dan was in the 66x.  The other 66 finished well too.  As for which car, not sure - did look familiar though.

I think Gallant got a heat win too.

#41 is driven by Taylor Holdaway from Orillia.  He is an ex-Cup Lite driver - just a young fella.  They have a family garage here in town.  Car was off the pace but did OK considering it would be one hell of a jump from the Cup Lite.

The 41 car is the car that won the championship at Peterbourough last year with Don Hart at the wheel, and before that it won a ton of races and a LM championship at Kawartha in the hands of Dan McHattie.

I'm assuming Holdaway is now a Peterborough regular?
