The Ontario Outlaw Super Late Models kicked off their season with their 75 Lap Norcom Supply Feature race. #17 Brandon Passer kept the nose of his Jenco Equipment ride clean all night and pounce when the opportunity arose to score his first Super Late Model win at his home track. “We were just trying to save tires and brakes and the last 15 laps we have it all we had” said Passer. “I grew up watching my Dad and my Uncle race Super Late Models so it’s been fun making the jump to these cars and worked out so far”. The Tour now heads on the road but will be back at Sunset on Canada Day July 1st,
Johnny Morrison came up one spot short in action a week ago in St. Onge Recreation Super Stock action but was to not be denied this week. Making a daring 3 wide move for the lead Morrison was able to get clear and cruise to his first win of the 2023 season. “I was ready to scrap this thing after the qualifying races and about 10 laps into the feature we started reeling in the leads and it just took off” Morrison said of his racecar. “We are going enjoy it now but we are going to come back chasing more.” The Super Stocks are in action next on June 24th.
The CPS Junior Late Models had an interesting night with contact in the first qualifying sidling #51 Cole Kamrath and #31 Jake Spencer-Walt for the second qualifying race. Both drivers started the feature and charged to the front of the field putting on a fantastic late race dual swapping the lead several times over the last 2 laps with Cole Kamrath scoring his first career feature win. “I’m really good at crossover moves, I had nothing to lose on the last lap so I went for it.” Kamrath spoke of picking up his first career win”.
