Brandt Graham Finds the Fast Lane to Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup Series Success

@Graham_Racing •@LOSC_Series •Orono, ON (June 20, 2016)- With family, friends and fans showing their support at every turn, Brandt Graham is enjoying a strong second season of competition on the Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup Series. After a freshman campaign that saw him become the youngest main event winner in tour history and take the rookie of the year honours on the way to a fourth place point finish, the young second generation speedster from Orono, Ontario hasn’t lost a step and continues to make headlines on the provincial stock car circuit.

“We’ve run just a couple of races on this year’s schedule, but the results have been what we were hoping for,” admitted the driver who recently celebrated his 18th birthday. “As a team, we learned a lot last season and luckily we’ve been able to pick things up where we left off. The hard work we’re doing behind the scenes makes sure the car is ready as soon as its rolled off the trailer. That gives us some time to find a raceday set-up that will work once the green flag waves.”

The first events on the calendar were run at Flamboro Speedway, where the team tested during the off-season. On Saturday, May 14 Graham finished sixth, while a couple of weeks later, he logged another runner-up effort, leaving his #14 machine in the middle of a log-jam near the top in series points, a scant three markers out of the overall lead. Like most racers at any track or with any series, Brandt Graham says the event he looks forward to the most is the next one.

“There are a pair of dates coming-up at Sauble Speedway – Saturday, June 25 and Saturday, July 16 – then a homecoming of sorts Saturday, August 6 at Peterborough Speedway,” said the youngster who’ll begin studies in the Trades Fundamentals program at Durham College this fall. “The team is still gaining experience and we’re looking for a series of strong, consistent runs every time we hit the track.”
