Posted by: SSWebguy« on: July 12, 2008, 12:04:20 PM »Great find 3-wide! There are over 330 pics there starting here: http://public.fotki.com/TryonMasonry/2008-peterborough-s/july-5-2008/. Only mini pics though. There were about 3 photographers there doing vic lane shots.
The truck is a new class ptbo apparently is trying to start. Only one built, but "word is" 4 or 5 more are being built. I was told it is supposed to be a stock drivetrain 4 cylinder. But even if these 4 or 5 more are built, it's still gonna take a lot more then that to make it interesting. But why start a new class when the regular classes are struggling??

Posted by: bakstreethero« on: July 08, 2008, 11:07:11 PM »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.
Posted by: SSWebguy« on: July 08, 2008, 08:37:13 AM »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. Mark Posted by: Debber« on: July 08, 2008, 05:38:26 AM »Dan Lawler was the #66
Posted by: blackmagic« on: July 08, 2008, 01:33:36 AM »Dan was probably running the same car he was running at Varney in the invitational on the Sunday of the long weekend. #5?
Posted by: SpencerLewis« on: July 08, 2008, 12:36:23 AM »any idea what car lawler was in?
i didnt think he had a llm left in his current rotation, at least not one with the number 66 also, any idea who was in the 41 car? Posted by: 38racing« on: July 08, 2008, 12:33:45 AM »larry crowe won one of the heats as he had a buddy sitting near us who ran down to be in the picture.
Posted by: SSWebguy« on: July 07, 2008, 11:33:12 AM »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. Mark |
