The Racing just keeps getting Better at CCS

Wednesday Night saw another week of great racing. Our drivers certainly have picked up the pace as we saw some great racing and battles all night long.  Myers Motors Night was no exception with some great wheel to wheel, bumper to bumper racing action.

The best feature of the night had to go once again to the mini stocks who battled from the green flag all the way to the checkered flag. The top eight cars finished the race within seconds of each other. The battle for the lead was fought hard between Casey Cavanagh and Dwayne Emon with a beehive of activity behind them all race long. Casey ended up with the win, but it was a toss up between a number of cars who could have won it. Jason Moss who blew up his motor 2 weeks ago will be back this coming Wednesday along with Dave Watchorn who was away on business.

Sean Kennedy took the checkered for the Late Models, but any slip up by him would have seen a number of contenders knocking on the door. Tim Kirby seems to have gotten his ride working well for him this year. Tim is in a new car and has finished well in all of his races. Look for him to be in the winners circle at some point this year. Ken Baird has taken the points lead with a number of strong finishes so far, but has yet to get into the winners circle this year. Ken just needs a break and look for him to be in the winners circle.

Matt Haufe had a great battle for most of the feature with last weeks winner, Chris Zieran, but held off that challenge to win his first feature of the year. Rookie Terry McClelland has been putting together some good runs and watch for him after he gets some more seat time in that new car. Newcomer Robin Jongen from Barrie made a great first impression and finished well in his first run at CCS.

The Thunder class saw Todd Musker once again take the checkered flag. Watch for this lass to get even more interesting as Mike Hennick should have his new motor and be back with us this week. Jessica Pasinetti has a new power plant going in this week as well, as the power was not there this week after her first win last week. Rumours are swirling about some new Thunder Cars this week as well. This should help that class get back to having some reasonable car counts back in it.

Four for Fun saw Brandon Scott take another win and bolster his lead on that class. News of some new cars coming out over the next few weeks should bring this class back up to a reasonable car count in the very near future.

The Dinardo's Kart class saw a jump in Kart numbers this week and saw some very good racing. Things up front were tight all night long with Trevor Finch taking the win.

The Highlight of the night had to have been the first outing of the Dirt Sportsman class at CCS. We saw some great raing with our new exhibition class for 2013. The long term goal is to get these guys out every week next year as a regular class. Thanks go to Doug Buzzell, Dana Akins, Jason Shipclark, Steve Billings, John Ferguson, Bruce Makinson and Joey Evans for bringing thier cars out to put on a show for you. The feedback from these drivers and our fans was very positive and I look forward to where this will go. I have confirmations from other Sportsman drivers at this point that they will be out July 24th for our next Sportsman event. If this goes were I think it will, look for a much higher car count for this event.

This coming Wednesday is Fan Appreciation Night, so make sure you come on out and meet your favorite driver and get to see the cars up close.

I hope to see you at the races.
