From Tommy Goudge
Ohsweken, ON — (June 21, 2013) — A total of 109 drivers signed in to race on Patriot Sprint Tour versus Corr/Pak Merchandising Sprint Cars night at Ohsweken Speedway on Friday night. New Yorker Jason Barney was the best of the talented Sprint Car field, while Ryan Turner (Thunder Stocks), Alex Schuts (Mini Stocks), and Max Chechalk (Bombers) also visited Klotz Canada Synthetic Lubricants Victory Lane.
PATRIOT SPRINT TOUR VS. CORR/PAK MERCHANDISING SPRINT CARS
Jason Barney started in the 9th row, but didn’t stay there long after the Sprint Car feature started. Barney used the low groove to move quickly through the field, and eventually take the lead from Jamie Collard on lap 17. Barney then held off Glenn Styres for his first Ohsweken win since 2008. Styres settled for the runner-up spot, followed by Bryan Howland, Jared Zimbardi, and Jamie Collard.
Heat races for the 30 car field were claimed by Jamie Collard, Steve Collins, Glenn Styres and Dustin Daggett, while Jared Zimbardi won the “4 Laps of Fame” Dash, and Jessica Zemken won the B-Main.
AFFORDABLE TOWING & RECOVERY THUNDER STOCKS
Ryan Turner was looking for redemption on Friday night, after losing a feature win to a technical infraction last week. Turner took advantage when Dave Silverthorn, Jr. missed his mark in turn one, and held on for the feature win. Brad Herron slipped by to take the runner-up spot, followed by Silverthorn, Ryan Beagle, and Jim Lampman.
Heat races for the 34 car field were claimed by Ryan Beagle, Dave Silverthorn, Jr., Mike Thorne, and Jim Lampman, while Murray Nicholls won the B-Main.
HRW AUTOMOTIVE MINI STOCKS
Alex Schuts dominated the Mini Stock feature to take his first ever feature win at Ohsweken, while Rodney Rutherford, Robin Elliott, Mike Evers, and Rob Hoskins chased Schuts to the finish.
Heat races for the 29 car field were claimed by Kathi Dickie, Rodney Rutherford, and Laura Hughes, while Mike Evers won the B-Main.
GALE’S AUTO AFTERMARKET BOMBERS
Max Chechalk survived a few close calls and successfully negotiated traffic to take his first feature win of 2013. Jesse McDonald, Dusty DeBoer, Tim DeBoer, and Gillian Hils rounded out the top 5.
Heat races for the 16 car field were claimed by Gillian Hils and Max Chechalk.
