By Jim Clarke, Clarke Motorsports Communications/First Draft Media
Peterborough Speedway’s entry level racing division has posted some very impressive numbers throughout the 2018 campaign. With about a month remaining in the regular season, close to 45 different drivers have scored points in the Battlefield Equipment Rental Bone Stock class at the venue known as Canada’s Toughest 3rd of a Mile Paved Oval. Track owner and promoter J.P. Josiasse says that no matter how you look at it, that’s something everyone can be proud of.
“This has always been a very competitive class; one that provides some tight battles and thrills the fans week after week,” Josiasse said. “I’d put our teams up against a similar field anywhere in the province. The point standings are extremely close, with a gap of less than 100 markers between 1st and 5th. With some good luck on the track, everything can change in the blink of an eye.”
Saturday, August 11th the 2018 edition of the Hot August Nights Racing Series continues with a 50 lap Bone Stock feature event on a schedule that also includes the home track Jiffy Lube Mini Stocks, Trent Lakes Complete Plumbing Renegade Trucks, Late Models and the return of the Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup Series. Fans will also get the chance to hit the track in timed laps with their personal vehicles in King of the Hill. Start times for this show have been moved forward by one hour from what was advertised in the originally advertised schedule. Pit gates will now open at 1:00, with general admission grandstands unlocked at 4:00 and racing getting started at 5:00.
Saturday, August 18th marks the Peterborough Speedway debut of the exciting Hoosier Racing Tire Ontario Outlaw Super Late Model Tour, with a 75 lap feature race. The event will also include the Mini Stock and Super Stock classes; plus the Ontario Pro Challenge Series, with Kid’s Barrel Races at intermission. Fans can check
