SAUBLE BEACH, ON – After a couple laps side-by-side, Jason Keen proved to be untouchable en route to a dominating performance in the OSCAAR Modifieds feature, while Tyler Hawn drove to Sauble Speedway victory lane in the OSCAAR Hot Rods main event.
Jason Keen Dominates in OSCAAR Modifieds
Keen found himself on pole for the 40-lap Overkill Enterprises OSCAAR Modifieds feature, after a solid qualifying effort, and took advantage of the track position. After battling side-by-side with Wally Wilson for the first couple laps, Keen took over the top spot on Lap 3. From there on, he was able to hold a healthy advantage over his competition, getting a strong restart at the mid-race caution to maintain the advantage and record his second feature win of 2025.
Dale Reinhart made a couple passes early to put himself in second place, but he was never able to close the gap between himself and Keen to have a chance at the lead. Steve Trendell backed up his win at Peterborough with a third-place finish to maintain the points lead.
Ryan Dick and Brent McLean completed the top-five ahead of Steve McCaw and Wally Wilson. Luke Gignac pulled off with issues with six laps complete.
Trendell now holds an eight-point advantage going into the series’ final points event of the season, which takes place at Delaware Speedway on Saturday, September 27.
Tyler Hawn Slips and Slides to Victory Lane in OSCAAR Hot Rods
He may have been sideways off the corner at one point, but Hawn pointed it the right way to score the OSCAAR Hot Rods feature win.
Hawn put himself in position to be a part of the conversation for a victory by making his way to the front quickly, taking the runner-up spot behind Thomas Wunsch. He tried to begin chasing down the leader, but lapped traffic played havoc in making that happen. With five laps to go, he got sideways going around the outside of Brian Wilson, ultimately utilizing the full backstretch to get his car pointed in the right direction. The caution came out moments later for a separate spin off the same corner by Dalen Martin.
The first attempt at a restart did not go smoothly, with Wunsch spinning off of the front row coming to the green. This moved Hawn to the inside of the front row in the preferred lane. He then out-ran Jason Parker in a two-lap heads-up battle to score the victory.
Parker recorded a second-place finish, ahead of Rob Bromley, Steve Book, and Nick Holman. Trevor Thompson was sixth, with Dalen Martin rebounding to seventh after his spin. Thomas Wunsch wound up eighth after leading 27 of the 30 laps, with Brian Wilson and Luke Gignac next across the line.
Tanner Holmes’ OSCAAR debut landed him in 11th, followed by Matt Hopkins, Jeremy McLean, and Drew Richardson.
Hawn now holds a six-point advantage going into the series’ next event, which takes place at Brighton Speedway on Saturday, September 20.
