After a disappointing weekend last week that resulted in a mechanical failure at Brockville Speedway that ended their night early, Ryan Arbuthnot and the Arbuthnot Racing team were looking to get back on track with another solid night at the BOS. Steve Arbuthnot also returned to Brockville for the second consecutive week with another round of the Ford Dingwall Vintage Modified Series.
Ryan’s night began with the usual qualifying heat races, and after starting fourth, he ended with a great second place result. The team made some adjustments to the car before heading back on the track later in the evening for the 30 lap main event. Ryan started from the ninth position, but handling issues on the car early in the race sent him back to 16th at one point. As the laps counted down, the car began to come to life, and by the end of the race he was side by side at the line for the 10th position. Official scoring had Ryan in 11th place at the checkered flag, missing the top ten by two tenths of a second.
For the second consecutive week, the Ford Dingwall Vintage Modified Series was at Brockville Speedway and for the second week, Steve Arbuthnot drove his Vintage Modified to a third place finish. The next race in the Ford Dingwall Series comes this coming Sunday night at Cornwall Speedway.
Coming up this week for Ryan Arbuthnot will be a Friday night event at Mohawk International Raceway in Hogansburg, New York. On Saturday night, the team will be at Brockville Speedway. Steve Arbuthnot will also have a busy weekend with the Vintage Modified, as he hopes to make it to Chapman’s Can Am Motorsports Park on Friday night with the Midstate Vintage Stock Car Club, followed by Sunday’s Ford Dingwall Series race at Cornwall Motor Speedway.
