Wyant Group Raceway
Results for July 23, 2016
The weather Gods were with us on Saturday as you couldn’t have asked for
a better day for racing at Wyant Group Raceway. A heavy downpour passed
by the track mid-morning and the skies remained threatening for the next
few hours and you could see rain pass through the city, but by the time
the gates opened it was blue skies all around the track.
The Super Trucks made their second and final stop in Saskatoon for 2016.
A little light on the count as several trucks were heavily damaged in
Edmonton a couple of weeks ago. Only five managed to patch things up
enough for this weekend.
As always though, the Super Trucks showed they are competitive and
pretty well any of them can win the race. Given a 40 lap feature, the
#18 of Ron Elder Jr. came out on top at the end, being chased down by
Terry Kovacs’ #43 truck and the #19 of Cody Lang.
It looks like the racing bug may have bitten Chelsey Wilson again as she
had her #13 Sportsman out for the second time in as many weeks. Damen
Meier was also able to hit the track as his crops mature, so the Shell
V-Power Sportsman had a good car count and put on a terrific race program
Running a 75 lap Shell feature race, it wasn’t until the final couple of
laps the finishing order would be settled. At the checkered flag
though, it was Cale Siemens in the #28 Lucky Bastard Distillers Pontiac
Grand Prix claiming its third feature win in a row. Nicole Sheetka was
second in the #42 Rainbow International Restoration Grand Prix and the
#49 Northern Lights Casino Monte Carlo of Ben Busch was third.
Bumped out of a NASCAR eve spot this year, the Golf’s Car Wash Street
Stocks put on one heck of a race for the Rick Fredrickson Memorial.
Craig Katelnikoff once again takes the trophy home, being first to the
finish in the #3 BDI Canada Trans Am. Scott Barrand, in the #1
Tailgatorz Sports Bar Camaro was second and Ryan Fredrickson was third
in the #22 Globe Excavating Camaro.
Ryan found it especially humbling to finish on the podium for the first
time in the race honouring his uncle.
NASCAR race week continues Tuesday with the Tiger Automotive Pro Trucks,
the Law Enforcement Guardian Bandoleros, the Saskatoon Shrine Club
Legends and the WSSL Auto Parts Super Late Models. The SLMs will be
running the Brice Mann Memorial. Gates open at 6:00 with the first
green flag at 7:05pm
Wednesday NASCAR hits the track with the NASCAR Pinty’s Series and the
running of the Bayer Crop Science Velocity Prairie Thunder 250. Front
gates open at 1:00 on Wednesday, first practice is at 1:30, qualifying
at 5:15, autographs at 6:00pm. All this in preparation for the 7:30pm
start to the 250 lap race.
