Was nice meeting you too 3 WIDE!!! I agree with everyone else is that was one of the best LM shows I will see!! Laperle looked good in taking a car that maybe wasnt the best in the heats to victory lane after an 8th in his first NCATS race at St.Eustache!!! Was nice to see Barrie area cars Doucette and Slaughter Jr. run well in Thunders until Steve had an accident on the last lap. Nice to see a couple of old Sunset friends and a big thanks to Steve Slaughter Jr. and Herbie Walters for driving me down there!!! Brandon Watson ran well in the ACT race and finished mid pack if I was guessin so that pleased me to see as well. Totally impressed with Johnathon Urlin to as well as Spencer McPherson. Two other good young Canadian drivers that will be great shoes in time.

yep that pic of the napa car was taken around 4:20 pm, during the qualifying. Here's a better shot of the 31 car, in the same run later on.

that pic of the napa car must have been early on as spencer lost most of his panels but was running at the end.

I managed to get the video camera out for a few moments. Here's a 3 min clip of the pit area, plus a few laps of the ACT Feature.

I stood all night and I'm getting grey... so it wasn't me, lol. I checked out all 4 turns though, from the outside fences. Had a nice visit with Glenn Watson in turn #3 during the B/LCQ run.

very quick rundown...beacuse I just got home and need to shower & eat.


Patrick Laperle wins again for the 2nd straight year...very competitive race, prolly the best LM show I'v ever seen...45 cars showed up for 36 spots.

I'l be back on later to do a bit more of a review..along with a lot of other people I'm sure.


bit more information...I'm not exactly sure the order of the top-5 so I'l let somebody eles fill that in.

The Battle for the lead within the last 10 laps was amazing..between Laperle & Karl Allard as they ran side-by-side literary stuck! together for a good 5 laps or so..untill Karl slide up and almost lost the car.

I was impressed with how Laperle was able fix the handling on his car...beacuse I had him counted out earlier in the race..as he about wrecked the car 4-5 times as it was loooose going into the turns.

Best running KD car was again McCattie..but just like last year he cut down a tire...and then basicly took him out of contention.

Racing was real clean untill the B/LCQ race.... when all hell broke loose..it took over an hour to do a 20 lap race...18 cars started...and only 9 were running at the end...and half of them were looking real rough as well..there was a big pile up in turn-4 involving about half the field.... and the biggest wreck was near the end...when Fernandes & Kimball were both in a TRASNFER SPOT!..and they took them selves out as they made contact off turn 2...and both cars hit the inside wall on the back stretch hard! sending a lot of the blocks out of place....and one all the way down the hill.

The Feature was fairly clean...they ran the first 74 laps green flag..and then just a few bumps and spins...a couple times  a lot of guys need a big hand...beacuse there could have been some huge pile-up's but everyone got slown down and advioded the spun car...on a few different occasions


Mini-Stocks were won by Shanna Moroney...went from upside down to victorylane in about a week...big pat on the back to all of the Moroney's


Thunder Car Feature went to the #53 of Mike Poulton who had a great! battle with Doucette also Mayhew & Wille were right on there tails.  There was one big wreck at the end that heavily damaged a few cars.

Legends was won by #99 (not sure on the name) but they had a big 27 car field that ran caution free feature.


Was a great day...can't wait till next year already!
